Cookie policy
This policy supplements the Privacy policy. A cookie is a small file stored on or read from a user’s device. Cookies may be session or persistent cookies and may be set by Bifacto or a third party.
1. Categories
| Category | Use |
|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Security, session, authentication, language choice, consent and requested payments. Enabled without consent only where their necessity is established. |
| Audience measurement | Google Analytics, loaded through Google Tag Manager. Enabled only after consent in the EEA. |
| Tag management | Google Tag Manager does not trigger non-essential tags before consent. |
Bifacto does not currently use advertising cookies (such as Meta Pixel) or session-replay tools (such as Microsoft Clarity). Should this change, this policy and the consent banner will be updated beforehand.

3. Consent management
Non-essential cookies remain blocked until you make a choice. The banner makes Accept all, Reject all and Customise equally easy, with no pre-ticked boxes. You may change or withdraw your consent at any time through the permanent Manage cookies link in the footer. Refusal does not block functions that are independent of the rejected cookies.
4. Your choices
We use cookies necessary for the operation and security of Bifacto. With your consent, we also use Google Analytics to measure audience. You can accept, reject or customise your choices and change them at any time.
- Buttons: Accept all - Reject all - Customise

This policy refers to Directive 2002/58/EC (ePrivacy) and the EDPB guidelines on consent.
