Cookie Policy | SvartxLab

In short

We only use the cookies needed to run the site and, only if you agree, Google Analytics to understand how it is used.
We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
Nothing is sent to Google before you accept, and you can change your mind at any time.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your device. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work in the same way. They let a site remember things like your language, your cart or whether you are signed in.

Some are essential for the site to work. Others are optional and only used if you give your permission.

What we use

Below is the complete list of what this site stores on your device, why, and for how long.

Strictly necessary

Analytics (only with your consent)

We use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are useful, so we can improve the site. It is off until you accept. If you later turn it off, we also delete its cookies.

Measurement without cookies

We also use Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights to measure page speed and visits. They do not use cookies and do not identify you.

Advertising and tracking

We do not use advertising, retargeting or cross-site tracking cookies.

Payments

When you pay, you are taken to Stripe's secure payment page. Stripe may set its own cookies there to process the payment and prevent fraud, under its own policy. Stripe's Privacy Policy.

Your choices

The first time you visit, a banner lets you accept all, reject all or choose by category. Rejecting is as easy as accepting. You can change your decision at any time:

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; essential features such as signing in or the cart may stop working.

If your browser sends the Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal of analytics until you choose otherwise.

How long we keep your choice

We remember your decision for up to 12 months. We ask again after that, or sooner if we change the cookies we use.

Data transfers

Google may process analytics data outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States, under safeguards such as the EU–US Data Privacy Framework or standard contractual clauses. See Google's Privacy Policy.

Changes and contact

We will update this page if we change the cookies we use, and ask for your consent again when needed. Questions? Write to info@svartxlab.com.
