This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies and similar technologies we use, for what purposes we use them, and how you can manage your preferences or withdraw your consent at any time.

For more information about how we process personal data, please see our Privacy Policy.

2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognize your device and store or retrieve certain information about your browsing session or preferences.

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • ensure the proper functioning and security of the Website;

  • remember your cookie preferences;

  • understand how visitors use the Website;

  • improve the Website's performance and usability.

3. Legal basis and consent

RESEARCHPRENEURS uses strictly necessary cookies and similar technologies only where they are required to provide the website and the functions expressly requested by the user. In such cases, storage of information on, or access to information from, the user’s terminal device is based on the exception under Section 25(2) TDDDG.

All other cookies and similar technologies, in particular analytics, preference, and marketing technologies, are used only with the user’s prior consent in accordance with Section 25(1) TDDDG. Where personal data is processed in connection with such technologies, the processing is based on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Consent can be given, refused, or withdrawn at any time via the cookie banner or cookie settings tool. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

You can accept, refuse, or change your preferences at any time through the cookie banner or cookie settings tool available on the Website.

4. Categories of technologies we use

We use both cookies and other browser-based storage technologies, such as local storage.

6. Other similar technologies

In addition to cookies, the Website may use other browser-based storage technologies, including local storage, to support session continuity, store consent preferences, and record analytics or interaction-related events. These technologies are distinct from browser cookies.

Visitor Tracking

The Website uses Visitor Tracking, a third-party analytics service. Visitor Tracking states that it does not rely on traditional cookies. However, this service uses browser-based local storage to collect and store information about your visit, including session and visitor identifiers. Session data persisted in local storage until deleted by the user/browser or updated by the site. 

Where this involves storing information on or accessing information from your device, and where it is not strictly necessary, it is used only with your prior consent.

Exact persistence periods for Visitor Tracking local storage items are listed in the storage inventory table below. For details on data collected, purposes, and your rights, please refer to the Visitor Tracking Privacy Notice.

Framer Analytics

Where enabled, Framer Analytics also states that it does not use cookies or persistent identifiers. Depending on the implementation, such services may nonetheless use browser-based storage technologies, such as local storage, or process analytics data through alternative means. This website uses Framer Analytics exclusively to store cookie consent preferences, which are retained only for the duration of the browser session.

General Provision

Where any of the technologies described in this section are not strictly necessary for the operation of the Website, they will only be used following the user's consent, where required under applicable law.
