Wbetz is an independent information and marketing portal. This cookie policy explains how the site uses browser storage technologies, what they do for visitors and which controls are available to you.
What a cookie is here
Cookies are small pieces of information stored by your browser when you visit a website. They can support basic functions, remember preferences and provide anonymous information about how pages are used. Similar technologies may include local storage and pixels used to measure advertising campaigns.
Some cookies are placed when the site loads because they are needed for the service to work. Others depend on your consent, while others come from embedded content or external services that operate under their own policies.
Which cookies this portal uses
The Wbetz information portal keeps its cookie use proportionate. It does not need every category for readers to browse the site, and optional technologies should remain inactive unless you agree to them.
| Category | Purpose | When it is used |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Supports essential functions such as security, consent choices and keeping the site working. | These technologies may be active without optional analytics or advertising consent. |
| Analytics | Helps the editorial team understand aggregate usage, including popular pages and general device information. | Used only where permitted by your consent settings. |
| Marketing and advertising | Supports campaign measurement and limits repeated advertising across services. | Used only where permitted by your consent settings. |
| Preferences | Remembers choices such as consent status and selected display options. | Retained for as long as the relevant setting needs to remain active. |
Our analytics should focus on understanding overall performance rather than building a detailed profile of each reader. Advertising technologies are kept separate from essential site functions so that they can be declined without preventing access to the content.
Third-party scripts
Some pages may include embedded media, advertising or measurement tools supplied by external providers. When those services place cookies or receive technical information, their own privacy terms govern that processing. The presence of an embedded service does not mean that every part of it is under our direct control.
Where consent is required, the relevant category should remain switched off until you make a choice. You can also use your browser controls to limit third-party requests, although doing so may affect embedded features such as video playback or campaign measurement.
Turning cookies off in your browser
Your browser lets you review, block and delete cookies for this site. The controls are usually found in Privacy or Site settings, although their names differ between Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge.
- Review existing permissions before accepting a new cookie choice.
- Block third-party cookies if you want tighter control over embedded content.
- Clear stored data when you use a shared or public device.
- Check that blocking does not remove a function you want to use.
Rejecting optional technologies may leave the core pages fully usable, but some embedded media or advertising functions may behave differently. Necessary technologies are different: removing them can interrupt features that depend on a secure, functioning session.
When this cookie policy changes
We will update this page when the categories of technology used by the portal change or when our legal obligations require a revision. The date below records the latest version, while material changes may also be highlighted on the site.
Questions about browser storage, consent or this policy can be sent to our editorial inbox. It is also worth checking the consent controls again after an update, since your previous choice may not cover a newly introduced purpose.
