Last updated: 1 January 2025
Overview
This Cookie Policy explains how Kinfold uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at kinfoldikas.biz. Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function, remember your preferences, and in some cases help us understand how visitors use the site. We aim to be transparent about what we place on your device and to give you meaningful control over it.
1. What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a small data file that a website sends to your browser, which may then be stored on your device. Cookies are used for many purposes: some are necessary for pages to work properly, others help us understand how our site is being used, and some store your preferences so you do not need to re-enter them.
Cookies can be "session cookies" (which expire when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them). They may be placed by us ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services we use ("third-party cookies").
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We categorise the cookies on our website as follows:

3. Your Cookie Choices
When you first visit our website, a cookie notice appears at the bottom of the screen. You can:
- Accept all cookies — including analytics and marketing cookies.
- Accept necessary only — only strictly necessary cookies will be placed.
Your preference is stored in your browser's local storage under the key cookieConsent. You can change your preference at any time by clearing your local storage or browser cookies and revisiting the site, at which point the consent notice will reappear.
4. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Most browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically block all cookies, block third-party cookies, or delete existing cookies. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect the functionality of our website. Below are links to cookie management guides for common browsers:
You can also opt out of Google Analytics measurement across all websites using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
5. Third-Party Privacy Policies
Third-party cookies are governed by the privacy policies of the respective services, not by this policy. We encourage you to review those policies if you have questions about how those companies handle your data:
6. Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit a "Do Not Track" signal to websites. Our website does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals, but you can use the preference controls described in this policy to limit non-essential cookie placement.
7. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example if we add new third-party services or change how we use analytics. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of the page. We recommend reviewing this page periodically.
