Cookies Policy
Effective date: July 11, 2026
Last updated: July 11, 2026
This Cookies Policy is provided in English only. Even when the rest of the site is available in other languages, this document remains in English as the authoritative legal reference. This avoids ambiguity in interpretation of legal terminology.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to remember information about your visit. Some cookies are essential for the website to function; others help operators understand how the site is used. This policy explains which cookies 7Konto uses and why.
2. Which cookies does 7Konto use?
We keep our cookie usage minimal. We use only two categories: essential cookies required for the site to work, and analytics cookies (Google Analytics via Google Tag Manager) to understand how visitors interact with the site. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels from advertisers, or third-party marketing cookies.
2.1 Essential cookies (always active)
These are strictly necessary for the site to work. They do not require your consent under GDPR because you cannot use the site without them. They do not track you or share data with third parties.
| Storage item | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| 7konto_cookie_consent | Remember your cookie consent choice | Until cleared |
| 7konto_language | Remember your selected site language | 12 months |
Note: 7konto_cookie_consent is stored in your browser's localStorage, not as a traditional cookie. 7konto_language is a first-party functional cookie, sent only to 7konto.com so the site can open the language you selected.
2.2 Analytics cookies (require your consent)
These help us understand which pages are visited, how users navigate the site, and where improvements are needed. We use Google Analytics (loaded via Google Tag Manager) for this. Analytics cookies are set only if you accept them via the consent banner.
| Cookie name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguish individual users | 2 years |
| _ga_[container_id] | Google Analytics | Persist session state | 2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics | Distinguish individual users | 24 hours |
The exact set of cookies used by Google Analytics may vary. For the current authoritative list, see Google's documentation.
3. What we do NOT use
To be transparent about what is not on this site:
- No advertising or retargeting cookies
- No third-party marketing pixels (Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, TikTok Pixel, etc.)
- No affiliate tracking cookies
- No chat widget cookies (we do not use Intercom, Drift, HubSpot chat, or similar)
- No cross-site tracking
- No fingerprinting or device identification techniques
If we add any of these in the future, this policy will be updated and you will be given the opportunity to opt in.
4. Your choices
You have three ways to control cookies on this site:
4.1 Consent banner
When you first visit 7konto.com, a banner appears at the bottom of the screen. You can:
- Accept — allows analytics cookies (Google Analytics) in addition to essential cookies
- Reject — allows only essential cookies; no analytics are loaded
Your choice is remembered so the banner does not appear again on subsequent visits.
4.2 Change your decision later
If you want to change your decision after making it initially, click the button below. This will clear your saved choice and the banner will appear again on your next page load.
4.3 Browser controls
You can also control cookies through your browser settings, blocking or deleting them entirely. Note that essential cookies used by the site are limited to localStorage entries that stay in your browser and are not sent to any server. Blocking these will make the consent banner appear on every visit but will not otherwise affect functionality.
Browser guides:
- Chrome: Manage cookies in Chrome
- Firefox: Enhanced tracking protection in Firefox
- Safari: Manage cookies in Safari
- Edge: Delete cookies in Edge
5. Google Consent Mode
We implement Google Consent Mode v2. This means that even before you make a decision, Google Tag Manager receives signals that analytics, advertising, and personalization are all denied by default. Google Tag Manager itself does not load until you accept. After you accept, the "analytics_storage" consent signal is updated to "granted" and Google Analytics begins collecting anonymous usage data.
6. Data collected via Google Analytics
If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics collects:
- Pages visited on the site
- Time spent on each page
- Navigation patterns between pages
- Referring website (which site linked to us)
- General geographic region (country, city — not precise location)
- Device type and browser (desktop / mobile / tablet)
- Truncated IP address (last octet removed for anonymization)
We do not receive personally identifiable information from Google Analytics. We use aggregated statistics to improve the site.
7. Third-party access to data
Google acts as a data processor for us. Data collected through Google Analytics is processed on Google infrastructure. Google's own privacy practices are described in the Google Privacy Policy. We do not share this data with any other third party.
8. International transfers
Google Analytics data may be transferred outside the European Economic Area, particularly to the United States. Google has implemented Standard Contractual Clauses and additional safeguards as required under GDPR to protect data during such transfers. See Google's documentation for details.
9. Changes to this policy
If we change our use of cookies, we will update this policy and, where the change is material (for example, adding a new tracking service), we will show the consent banner again so you can review your choices. The "Last updated" date at the top of this policy reflects the most recent change.
