Cookies
Last updated: 28 July 2026. This page explains how SmartDataLab uses cookies on smartdatalab.digital. For broader data practices, see our privacy notice.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a site. They help the site remember preferences and, with your consent, understand how pages are used.
Types we use
Essential
Required for basic functions such as remembering your cookie choice. These do not require consent beyond what is needed to provide the service you request.
Analytics
Optional cookies that help us understand aggregate traffic patterns. They are set only if you select Accept on the consent banner.
Cookie table
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| smartdatalab_cookie_consent | Stores whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies | 1 year (localStorage) | SmartDataLab |
| _ga | Distinguishes visitors for aggregate analytics when consented | Up to 2 years | Google Analytics (if enabled) |
| _gid | Distinguishes visitors for short-term analytics when consented | 24 hours | Google Analytics (if enabled) |
Managing cookies
Use Accept or Reject on our banner. Rejecting optional cookies does not block browsing, forms, or access to engagement information. You can also clear site data in your browser settings, which removes the stored preference and shows the banner again.
Third-party cookies
If analytics are enabled after consent, the analytics provider may set its own cookies subject to its policies. We do not use advertising networks on this site.
Impact of disabling
Disabling essential storage may cause the consent banner to reappear. Disabling analytics only means we will not collect optional usage statistics; the rest of the site continues to work.
