1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device by websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.
2. How we use cookies
At SettleRadar, we prioritize your privacy. By default, we operate using a Cookieless Tracking model. This means when you first visit our site, we do not store any tracking cookies on your device.
We use Google Analytics (GA4) with Google Consent Mode v2. Before you explicitly accept our cookie banner, GA4 only sends anonymous, cookie-less pings to help us measure basic traffic volumes without identifying you or tracking your behavior across sessions.
If you choose to click "Accept" on our banner, we will then use standard Google Analytics cookies. These cookies help us understand how you use our site, such as the pages you visit and the links you click, so we can improve the platform.
3. The cookies we set

| _ga_* | Google Analytics | Used to maintain session status (only after consent is granted). | 1 year |
