Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, or smartphone when you visit our website (s5onlinemarketing.com). They allow our website (or a third party on our behalf) to remember or collect information about your visit, for example which pages you visit and how you navigate the website. In addition to cookies, we also use similar technologies, such as pixels and local storage; references to "cookies" in this document include these similar technologies.

This cookie policy forms part of, and should be read together with, our Privacy Policy.

2. What categories of cookies do we use?

2.1 Necessary (functional) cookies

These cookies are necessary for the technical functioning of the website and the use of desired features, such as remembering your cookie preferences. No prior consent is required for these cookies under the law.

2.2 Analytical cookies

These cookies allow us to see how visitors use our website, so that we can improve it (for example via Google Analytics). We always request your explicit prior consent for analytical cookies via our cookie banner, before these cookies are placed.

2.3 Marketing and tracking cookies

These cookies (including the Meta pixel and Google Ads conversion tags) are used to track which pages you visit, so that we and/or third parties can show relevant advertisements and measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These cookies are only placed after you have given explicit consent via our cookie banner.

3. Overview of the cookies we use

The overview below provides an indication of the cookies that may be placed via our website. This overview may change over time, for example due to updates to the services we use.

4. Consent and your choices

On your first visit to our website, we show a cookie banner in which you can indicate which categories of cookies you accept. Necessary cookies are always placed; analytical and marketing/tracking cookies are only placed after your explicit consent.

You can withdraw or adjust your consent at any time:

• Via the cookie settings on our website (usually found at the bottom of the page or via the cookie banner itself, which you can recall at any time);

• For advertising-related cookies specifically, also via the ad settings of your Google account (adssettings.google.com) or your Facebook/Instagram account (ad preferences).

Analytical and marketing/tracking cookies (including Google Analytics, the Google Ads conversion tag, and the Meta pixel) are only technically activated after you have given consent via the cookie banner. Prior to such consent, these cookies and their associated scripts are not loaded or executed.

To the extent you have given consent, these parties may also use data about your website visit for their own purposes, for example to show you relevant ads on other websites. We have no control over what these third parties subsequently do with this data; please refer to the relevant party's own privacy and cookie policy for further information:
