Cookie policy

Measurement remains a choice.

SERCH separates necessary storage from optional analytics and advertising measurement. Visitors can reject non-essential storage and reopen their settings from every page.

01

Necessary storage

Necessary storage remembers the consent selection, protects forms and maintains basic session or security state. It is not used to build an advertising profile.

02

Analytics

If enabled by the visitor and configured by the operator, analytics helps measure page use, performance and navigation. SERCH must not place names, email addresses, phone numbers or free-text messages in analytics URLs, event labels or the data layer.

03

Advertising measurement

Google Ads conversion measurement may record a successful editorial form submission, landing page, consent state and permitted campaign parameters. A conversion is sent only after the server confirms submission; clicking the button alone is not a conversion.

04

Google Consent Mode

The site sets ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data and ad_personalization to denied before an optional Google tag is loaded. The state is updated after the visitor makes a choice. The operator remains responsible for matching the implementation to applicable law and Google requirements.

05

Change your choice

Use Cookie settings in the footer to accept, reject or customise optional categories. Browser controls may also delete existing storage.
