What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit our website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners. Cookies allow us to recognise your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions on our website.

Why Do We Use Cookies?

CryptoShift GmbH uses cookies to enhance your browsing experience, analyse website traffic, personalise content, and serve relevant advertisements. Cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website, which pages are most popular, and how we can improve our services. We also use cookies to remember your preferences and provide you with a more personalised experience on subsequent visits.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use different types of cookies for various purposes:

Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. They enable basic functions like page navigation, access to secure areas of the website, and remembering your cookie consent preferences. The website cannot function properly without these cookies, and they cannot be disabled in our systems.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us understand which pages are most and least popular and how visitors move around the site. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymous.

Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. They remember choices you make (such as language preferences) and provide enhanced, more personal features.

Marketing/Advertising Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements more 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. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organisations such as advertisers.

The following table provides detailed information about the specific cookies we use:

Third-Party Cookies

We use several third-party services that may set cookies on your device:

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to analyse website traffic and user behaviour. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about how visitors use our site, which we use to compile reports and improve our website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website is usually transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

Google Ads

We use Google Ads for advertising and remarketing purposes. Google Ads cookies enable us to show relevant advertisements to users who have previously visited our website and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These cookies may track your browsing behaviour across different websites.

Google Fonts

We use Google Fonts to display fonts on our website. When you visit our site, Google may collect information about your IP address and browser details. This service helps ensure consistent font display across different devices and browsers.

Google Consent Mode v2

We have implemented Google Consent Mode v2, which allows us to respect your cookie preferences whilst still providing relevant services. When you adjust your cookie settings through our consent banner, this information is communicated to Google services, ensuring they operate in accordance with your choices. This helps us maintain compliance with privacy regulations whilst optimising our advertising and analytics performance.

How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences

You have several options for managing cookies:

Cookie Consent Banner

When you first visit our website, you'll see a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the cookie settings link in our website footer or by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting our site.

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually find these options in the "Options" or "Preferences" menu of your browser. You can set your browser to block or alert you about cookies, but please note that some parts of our website may not work properly if you disable cookies.
