Last updated: 15th January 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how clearforgeion AG uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at clearforgeion.pro. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control their use.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners about user behaviour and preferences.

Cookies can be "session cookies" (which are deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them). They can also be "first-party cookies" (set by the website you're visiting) or "third-party cookies" (set by a different domain).

Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies for several purposes:

  • Essential functionality: To ensure our website works properly and securely
  • Performance and analytics: To understand how visitors use our website and improve our services
  • Personalisation: To remember your preferences and provide a customised experience
  • Marketing and advertising: To show you relevant advertisements and measure campaign effectiveness

Types of Cookies We Use

Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. They enable basic functions like page navigation, access to secure areas, and remember your cookie consent preferences. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. These cookies collect information about your visit, such as pages viewed, time spent on the site, and how you arrived at our website. This information is used in aggregate form to improve our website and services.

Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation, such as remembering your language preferences, region selection, and other customisation options. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our website.

Marketing/Advertising Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. We use Google Ads and other advertising platforms that may set these cookies.

Google Consent Mode v2

We implement Google Consent Mode v2, which allows us to respect your cookie preferences while still providing essential website functionality.
