Cookie Policy
This policy explains how Equator Group uses cookies and similar technologies, and how you can control them. It complements our Privacy Policy.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We also use similar technologies such as local storage. Together they help the site function, stay secure, and — with your consent — measure usage.
Categories we use
- Necessary — required for the site to work (sessions, security, anti-spam, and remembering your cookie choices). These cannot be switched off.
- Analytics — help us understand aggregate usage. With your consent we use Google Analytics 4 (GA4); these cookies load only after you accept this category.
- Marketing — not used at this time; reserved for any future advertising or campaign measurement, which would require your consent.
- Preferences — remember choices that personalize your experience.
First-party analytics and your IP address
For security and aggregate statistics we record limited technical data, including your IP address, for up to 90 days on the basis of our legitimate interest. You can object to this or request deletion using the contact details in our Privacy Policy.
When you submit a form, we also record how you reached us — the landing page, referrer, and any campaign or ad-click parameters (UTM, gclid, fbclid) in your link. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Managing your preferences
You can accept, reject, or customize optional cookies using the banner shown on your first visit, and change your choice at any time via “Cookie Preferences” in the footer. You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings, though some necessary cookies are required for the site to work.

We may update this policy from time to time. The “last updated” date above reflects the current version.
