1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you browse a website. They may be used to ensure the site works correctly, remembers your session or stores technical preferences.
2. Cookies currently used
At this time, Hiddium does not use analytics, advertising or profiling cookies such as Google Analytics, Meta Pixel or similar tracking tools.
Only strictly necessary technical cookies may be used where required for essential website functions such as session management, shopping cart operation, language settings or secure checkout flows.

3. Aggregate measurement without analytical cookies
Hiddium measures aggregate page requests and technical performance on its own server without setting analytical cookies or creating persistent visitor identifiers.
The browser User-Agent is inspected only in memory to classify a request as a known bot or other traffic. The complete value is not stored. These statistics cannot recognize a person across visits and the category 'other' must not be interpreted as a unique visitor or person.
Because no optional analytics cookies are installed, the site does not display a cookie consent banner. This policy remains permanently accessible from the website footer.
4. Cookie management
You can configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect the proper functioning of the website or prevent certain services from being available.
5. Future changes
If Hiddium later adds analytics, advertising or other optional cookies, this policy will be updated accordingly and any legally required consent mechanisms will be implemented.
