1. GENERAL

TechWolf BV is a limited liability company (“besloten vennootschap”) incorporated under the laws of Belgium, with its registered office at Overzet 14B, 9000 Ghent (Belgium) and registered with the Crossroads Bank for Enterprises under number 0702.852.201 (hereinafter referred to as "TechWolf", "we" or "us").

TechWolf is the controller of the information collected through the use of the cookies and similar tracking technologies placed on the Website.

This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies. This Cookie Policy does not affect your rights under any applicable data protection legislation such as the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). More information about how we process your personal data and what your rights as a data subject can be found in our Privacy Policy. This Cookie Policy must be read together with our Privacy Policy.

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, you can contact us by e-mail at privacy@techwolf.ai.

This Cookie Policy can be amended, for example, in response to new features on the Website. We therefore recommend that you regularly consult this Cookie Policy. Important changes will be announced on our Website. This version of the Cookie Policy was last modified on the date set out above.

When you visit our Website, we automatically collect information through the use of cookies. Other technologies such as Google Analytics, HubSpot, Leadfeeder, Hotjar, LinkedIn, Facebook, Indeedı, Combell, Cloudflare, Youtube, pixel tags, browser analysis tools, server logs and web beacons are also used for the purposes as described in this Cookie Policy. The information provided below about cookies also applies to these kinds of technologies.

2. WHAT ARE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on our Website and store certain information. Tracking technologies used are beacons, tags, and scripts to collect and track information and to improve and analyze our Website. The technologies we use include:

2.1 COOKIES

Cookies are small text files that are set on your browser, your computer or your mobile device. The website asks your browser to store the cookie on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information to ensure that your device is recognized when you revisit the Website. Cookies can have different purposes, such as ensuring that the website takes user preferences into account by remembering certain preferences, collecting statistical data, adapting content, etc.

a) Permanent vs. session cookies and first-party vs. third-party cookies

A distinction is made between permanent and session cookies on the one hand and first-party and third-party cookies on the other hand.

  • Permanent cookies remain on the user’s device for a specific period of time.

  • Session cookies are deleted after the user closes the browser.

  • First-party cookies are cookies installed by TechWolf itself on its Website.

  • Third-party cookies are cookies installed by other parties (i.e. cookies from a domain different than the domain of the website you are visiting, e.g. Google Analytics cookies)

b) Categories of cookies

We can also split cookies into six categories, depending on the purpose for which they are used.

Strictly Necessary Cookies (first party – session)

Strictly Necessary Cookies are necessary for the Website to function properly and cannot be deactivated in our cookie banner. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences or filling out forms. They help us to authenticate users and prevent fraudulent use of user accounts. These cookies are set directly on your browser by TechWolf based on our legitimate interest in providing a well-functioning and secure website.

Functional Cookies (first party – permanent)

Functional Cookies enable the Website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. Preference cookies are cookies that automatically remember the choices that you have previously made in order to improve your experience next time you visit the Website (e.g. where you select your preferred language or remember settings such as whether or not you have logged in already). The purpose of these cookies is to provide you with a more personal experience and to avoid you having to re-enter your preferences every time you use the Website. These cookies are set based on your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

Notice Acceptance Cookies (first party – permanent)

These cookies identify if users have accepted the use of cookies on the website.

Performance Cookies (third party – permanent)

Performance Cookies allow us to count visits and to track traffic sources so we can analyze and improve the performance of our Website. These cookies provide us with information about the use of our Website and help us optimize our Website. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular and how visitors move around the Website, or to see from which page or through which ad campaign you came to the Website. We can use it to see whether you make use of functionalities of the Website (for example by requesting a demo or subscribing to the newsletter).

All the information these cookies collect is aggregated. We may also use these cookies to test new pages, features or new functionality of the Website to see how our users react to them. The information gathered via these cookies may directly or indirectly identify you as an individual visitor. This is because the information collected is typically linked to a pseudonymous identifier associated with the device you use to access the Website.

If you do not allow these cookies, we do not know when you visited our Website, and we will not be able to monitor its performance. These cookies are set based on your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

Targeting Cookies (third party – permanent)

These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not directly store personal information but they are based on unique identification of your browser and internet device. These cookies are set based on your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Social Media Cookies (third party – permanent)

In addition to our own cookies, we may also use various third party plug-ins from social media networking websites such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or Google+ to report usage statistics of the Website and to provide social media features. These third party plug-ins may store cookies. We do not control these Social Media Cookies. Please refer to the relevant social media networking's website privacy policies for information about their cookies.

2.2 OTHER TECHNOLOGIES

Flash Cookies. Certain features of our Website may use local stored objects (or Flash Cookies) to collect and store information about your preferences or your activity on our Website. Flash Cookies are not managed by the same browser settings as those used for cookies. For more information on how you can delete Flash Cookies, please read "Where can I change the settings for disabling, or deleting local shared objects?" available at https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/disable-local-shared-objects-flash.html#main_Where_can_I_change_the_settings_for_disabling__or_deleting_local_shared_objects_.

Web Beacons. Certain sections of our Website and our e-mails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit TechWolf, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an e-mail and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of a certain section and verifying system and server integrity).
