Internal note (remove before publishing): This page contains placeholder content and has not been legally reviewed. Every field marked [PLACEHOLDER] must be replaced with real company data. The text should be reviewed by a lawyer qualified in German/EU law before this goes live.
1. What this page covers
This Cookie Policy explains how [PLACEHOLDER: full legal company name] ("Arkroot," "we," "us") uses cookies and similar storage technologies on this website, and the choices available to you.
2. What cookies we currently use
[PLACEHOLDER: this site's cookie usage must be audited before launch. As built, the site uses your browser's locale preference (light/dark theme and language selection), stored locally on your device, which is not a tracking cookie. If any analytics tool (e.g. Google Analytics, Plausible, Matomo), advertising pixel (e.g. Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag), or third-party embed (e.g. Calendly) is added to the site, it must be listed here individually with its name, purpose, duration, and whether it requires prior consent under the ePrivacy Directive / TTDSG.]
3. Strictly necessary storage
Your theme (light/dark) and language preference are stored in your browser's local storage so the site remembers your choice on your next visit. This is not shared with us or any third party and does not require consent, as it is strictly necessary for the site to function as you've configured it.
4. Third-party links and embeds
This site links out to Calendly for booking calls. If you click through, Calendly's own cookie and privacy practices apply once you're on their site. [PLACEHOLDER: confirm whether Calendly is embedded directly on this site (which would require consent for its cookies) or only linked to as an external page.]
5. Managing cookies
Most browsers let you control or delete cookies through their settings. Since this site does not currently set tracking cookies, no cookie consent banner is shown. [PLACEHOLDER: if analytics or advertising tools are added in the future, a consent banner compliant with the TTDSG/ePrivacy Directive and GDPR must be implemented before those tools load.]
