Last updated: March 17, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Zeitclaim ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on zeitclaim.com (the "Service").

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser. They help websites remember information about your visit, such as whether you are logged in.

Legal basis: § 25(1) TDDDG / Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR — your consent.

If you decline analytics cookies: We fall back to a server-side anonymous hash that does not store any cookies and does not constitute personal data. The hash uses a daily rotating salt that is discarded after processing, making identification impossible.

How to Manage Your Preferences

  • Cookie banner: When you first visit the Service, you can accept or reject analytics cookies. The reject option is equally prominent to the accept option.
  • Change preferences: You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the cookie settings link in the footer of every page.
  • Browser settings: You can also configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies may prevent the Service from functioning properly.

Third-Party Cookies

We do not use any advertising cookies. We do not share cookie data with advertisers.

PostHog analytics data stays within the EU (Frankfurt, Germany). PostHog is proxied through our domain (/ingest) so no third-party cookie domains are involved.
