Cookie Policy
Updated 04.02.26
This policy explains how Smarkia uses cookies, and how that differs depending on where you are.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small files a website stores on your device to recognise you, remember your preferences and understand how you use the site.
Where you are matters
Cookie rules differ by region, so this policy applies differently depending on where you are.
European Union, EEA and United Kingdom
Consent-first. Under the GDPR and ePrivacy rules, we ask for your consent before setting any non-essential cookie (analytics or advertising). Until you accept through our cookie banner, only strictly necessary cookies are used. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time.
United States
Opt-out. In the US we may set analytics and advertising cookies by default, subject to your right to opt out. If you are a California resident, you can opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information, and we honour the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal.
Rest of the world
Browser-managed. Where local law does not require prior consent, we use cookies to operate and improve the site, and you can manage or disable them at any time through your browser settings.
Types of cookies we use
Technical cookies (needed to browse the site and remember your cookie choices); analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Hotjar); and advertising cookies (LinkedIn, Google). Third-party providers set their own cookies under their own policies.
How to manage or disable cookies
You can allow, block or delete cookies from your browser settings. To reject Google Analytics across all sites you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works.
