4. Types of cookies we use
On our website we use different types of cookies, including functional cookies and analytics cookies.
4.1 Functional cookies
Functional cookies are required for the website to function correctly. They cannot be disabled through our cookie banner, although you can still block them in your browser, which may cause the website or some of its features not to work properly.
Functional cookies set on this website are:
trustwardsCookie: used to remember your consent preferences, such as which cookie categories you accepted or rejected, and to associate a unique identifier with your browser so that we can keep a record of your consent choices. This cookie is persistent and has a duration of 12 months. Without this cookie, we would not be able to remember your choices or provide a reliable proof of consent.
__cf_bm: which is set by Cloudflare and is used to distinguish between human and automated (bot) traffic. It helps protect the website against malicious automated activity. It is a strictly necessary security cookie and is not used for advertising or user profiling. This cookie is a persistent cookie with a typical duration of around 30 minutes.
4.2 Analytics cookies
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our website. This helps us improve our content and user experience by providing aggregated statistics such as which pages are visited, how long visitors stay on a page and how visitors find our website.
Analytics cookies are only set if you give your consent through the cookie banner. If you do not consent, these cookies will not be placed on your device and no analytics data will be sent to Google.
Analytics cookies set on this website are:
_ga: which is used to distinguish users and to generate statistics on the use of the website. This is a persistent cookie, which is stored for up to 13 months, or for the shorter period configured in our Google Analytics account.
_ga_4N6M1EP6EG: which is used to maintain the session state and collect information about how visitors interact with the website, for example pages visited and session duration. This is also a persistent cookie, which is stored for up to 13 months, or for the shorter period configured in our Google Analytics account.
4.3 Legal basis
The use of functional and strictly necessary cookies is based on our legitimate interest in ensuring the technical operation, security and accessibility of the website, in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The use of analytics cookies is based on your consent, in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, which you provide by accepting them through the cookie banner. You may withdraw your consent at any time via the cookie settings, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
5. How you can manage cookies
When you first visit the Dancepad website, you will see a cookie banner, powered by Trustwards, that allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-functional cookies or manage your preferences by category.
You can change your preferences at any time by clicking on the cookie settings in the footer of our website. There you can withdraw your consent to analytics cookies or modify your choices.
You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. How you do this varies from browser to browser, and you should refer to your browser’s help documentation for more information.
Please note that if you block functional or strictly necessary cookies, some parts of the website may not function properly.
6. Third-party cookies
When we use third-party services such as Google Analytics 4 or Cloudflare, those third parties may place cookies on your device and process personal data according to their own privacy and cookie policies. This may include, for example, IP address, online identifiers and information about how you interact with the website.
Some of these providers may be located outside the European Economic Area. In such cases, we take appropriate measures to ensure that any transfer of personal data complies with applicable data protection laws, including the use of Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission and, where necessary, additional safeguards.
We encourage you to read the privacy and cookie policies of these providers to understand how they handle your information, in particular those of Google for Google Analytics and Cloudflare for security and performance services.
7. Retention periods
Cookies are stored on your device for the periods indicated above or until you delete them through your browser settings or cookie preferences panel. Analytics data collected through Google Analytics is retained for a maximum period consistent with our configuration in Google Analytics, which does not exceed 13 months, after which it is automatically deleted or anonymised.
8. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example if we add new services or tools that use cookies. When we make changes, we will update the last updated date at the top. In some cases, we may show you the cookie banner again to obtain your consent for new cookies or categories or to inform you of relevant changes.
