COOKIE POLICY – SCIOZ AB

Last updated: 26 January 2026

The purpose of this cookie policy is to clearly and transparently describe how SCIOZ AB uses cookies on our Website. When you visit the Website, we may collect information from your browser through cookies (“cookies”) and similar technologies. Below, we explain what cookies are, which types of cookies we use, why we use them, and what choices you as a visitor can make regarding cookies.

1. What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. Cookies usually contain anonymous information in the form of an identifier and certain data that the website may need to recognize your device. When you visit the website again, the cookie is sent back to the original website (or another website that recognizes the cookie), which helps remember your settings or activities over time.

Cookies are used for a variety of purposes. Some cookies are necessary for basic website functions to work—for example, to keep you logged in on a page or remember what you placed in a shopping cart. Other cookies are functional, analytical, or marketing-oriented and help website owners improve the user experience or provide content and advertisements that are relevant to you.

Cookies can either be set by the website owner (first-party cookies) or by another party through the website owner’s site (third-party cookies). Third-party cookies are used, for example, by analytics systems or advertising networks that collaborate with the website.

When we refer to cookies in this policy, this also includes similar tracking technologies that can store and retrieve information in your browser. For example, we may use pixels, web beacons, or local storage (e.g. localStorage/sessionStorage), which function similarly to cookies. These technologies may in some cases transmit information to third parties in a way similar to cookies (e.g. a Facebook pixel that informs Facebook that a certain user has visited our site).

Types of cookies we use

On SCIOZ AB’s Website, we use the following categories of cookies:

Necessary cookies

These cookies are absolutely necessary for the Website to function securely and correctly. Without these cookies, basic functions of the site would not work. Necessary cookies help with, for example, page navigation, load balancing between servers, and storing certain settings such as the user’s privacy choices. Since these cookies are necessary for the operation of the service, they do not require consent from the visitor. It is also not possible to disable them via our cookie management tool.

(You can configure your browser to block all cookies, including necessary ones, but then parts of the Website will not function as intended.)

Necessary cookies do not contain identifiers beyond what is required and are usually stored only during your session. Examples of necessary cookies include cookies that store your cookie consent choices (so that we know whether you have given or denied consent to different categories of cookies) and cookies required for security purposes (e.g. detecting spam or protecting the Website from attacks).

Analytics cookies

(also called statistics or functional cookies)

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. Thanks to analytics cookies, we can, for example, obtain statistics on visitor numbers, see which pages are most popular, and understand how users navigate the site. We use this information to improve the Website’s performance, content, and usability.

Analytics cookies may be set by us or by third parties on our behalf—in our case, we typically use third-party services such as Google Analytics for this purpose. Data collected through analytics cookies may be considered personal data (e.g. IP address, user agent), but we take measures to anonymize this data as far as possible (for example, Google Analytics anonymizes IP addresses).

Analytics cookies are not necessary for functionality and are placed only if you consent to them. This means that we request your permission via the cookie banner before activating analytics cookies, and you may opt out at any time.

Marketing cookies

These cookies are used to track users across websites and create a profile of your interests, enabling the display of customized advertisements. Marketing cookies may be placed on our Website by our advertising partners (third parties) and are used to build a profile in order to target relevant advertising to you on other websites as well.

They also help us measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. Information collected through marketing cookies may be combined with other information about you that our partners have, to create a more complete picture of your interests.

Example: We may use a Facebook pixel (from Meta Platforms) that registers that you have visited our Website; through this, we may later show you advertisements for our products on Facebook or Instagram. Similarly, a Google Ads cookie may track your visit so that you see our ads via Google’s advertising network.

Marketing cookies are non-essential and require your consent before they are placed. If you do not consent to these cookies, you will receive more general (non-personalized) advertisements, and some of our targeted advertising features may be less effective. You may withdraw your consent at any time, which means that no new marketing cookies will be set and existing ones will be deactivated.

Our marketing partners may also offer their own opt-out options—see their respective policies for more information.

Overview of cookies (example)

Note: Exact cookies and their names may change over time. The table above is illustrative.

Cookie storage periods

Cookies have different lifespans depending on their purpose and design:

• Session cookies: Stored temporarily and deleted when you close your browser.
• Persistent cookies: Stored for a predetermined period until expiration or manual deletion.
• Indefinite cookies: Stored until you actively delete them via browser settings.

SCIOZ AB follows the principle of data minimization and does not retain cookie data longer than necessary.

Managing cookies

Consent to non-essential cookies

When you first visit our Website, you will see a cookie banner requesting your consent to analytics and marketing cookies. You may accept all, reject all non-essential cookies, or customize your preferences. Your choice is stored in a necessary cookie so that you do not have to make the selection again on each visit.

Changing settings

You may change your cookie preferences at any time via our cookie settings tool on the Website. When you update your choices, we adjust cookie placement accordingly and remove non-essential cookies that you no longer consent to.

Via your browser

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies may cause parts of the Website to not function properly. We therefore recommend allowing necessary cookies.

Do Not Track

Our Website currently does not respond to “Do Not Track” signals, as there is no industry standard for how such signals should be interpreted.

More information and contact details

If you have questions about our use of cookies, please contact us. Our contact details are available in our Privacy Policy and on the Website.

This cookie policy may be updated in the future. The latest version is always published on the Website.
