Cookie Policy

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Exchangellhedgef ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website exchangellhedgef.world, in line with the EU ePrivacy rules and Norwegian marketing and privacy requirements. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

Non-essential cookies or similar tools (for example analytics or advertising) are only used if you have given consent through our cookie banner or cookie settings, except where strictly necessary to provide a service you have requested.

2. What Are Cookies?

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

Cookies can be "persistent" (remaining on your device for a set period or until you delete them) or "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser).

3. Types of Cookies and Similar Technologies We Use

3.1 Strictly Necessary (Consent Storage)

To remember your cookie choices, we use browser local storage (not HTTP cookies) for the keys cookieConsent and cookiePreferences. This is necessary to respect your consent and avoid asking you on every page load. It does not track you across other websites.

3.2 Analytics (Optional — Only With Consent)

If we enable analytics tools (for example Google Analytics), they may set cookies such as _ga, _gid, or similar only after you accept analytics cookies in our cookie settings. Until then, those tools are not loaded on our pages.

If analytics are not enabled on our site, no analytics cookies are placed.

3.3 Marketing and Advertising (Optional — Only With Consent)

If we use advertising or remarketing (for example Google Ads, Meta), related cookies (such as _gcl_au or _fbp) may be set only after you opt in to marketing cookies. Until such tools are loaded with your consent, we do not place those cookies.

4. Third-Party Services and Content

Our website may load fonts or icons from third-party content delivery networks (for example Google Fonts, Font Awesome). Those providers may process technical data such as your IP address when your browser requests assets. We aim to limit data sent to third parties; see their privacy notices for details.

Third-party analytics or advertising scripts are only integrated in a way that requires your prior consent for non-essential processing, consistent with this policy.

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage your cookie preferences in several ways:

5.1 Our Cookie Consent Banner

When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to:

• Accept all cookies
• Reject non-essential cookies
• Customize your preferences by cookie category

Your choices are stored in your browser’s local storage (see section 3.1) and apply on subsequent visits until you clear site data or change settings.

5.2 Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these options in the "Options," "Settings," or "Preferences" menu of your browser. Common browsers include:

• Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
• Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Cookies and website data

6. Impact of Disabling Cookies

If you choose to disable or delete cookies, some features of our website may not function properly. This may include:

• Remembering your preferences and settings
• Maintaining session information

Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled as they are essential for the website to function.

7. Local Storage and Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies such as:

• Local Storage: Used to store your cookie consent preferences
• Session Storage: Used for temporary data during your browsing session

These technologies work similarly to cookies and are subject to the same consent requirements.

8. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. The updated version will be indicated by an updated "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.

We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies.
