This Cookie Policy explains how DCL (Data Compass Labz) uses cookies and similar technologies on datacompasslabz.com. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data more generally. By using the Site and, where required, giving consent through our cookie banner, you agree to the use of cookies as described here. This policy was last updated 5 July 2026.
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device to store information between visits or pages. They may be "session" cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or "persistent" cookies, which remain for a set period. We also use similar technologies such as local storage. First-party cookies are set by us; third-party cookies are set by services we use, such as analytics. Cookies do not run programs or carry viruses.
We use cookies to make the Site work, to remember your language and consent preferences, to keep the Site secure, to understand in aggregate how the Site is used so we can improve it, and — only with your consent — to measure the effectiveness of any marketing. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles about you or to sell your data.
| Category | Purpose | Consent |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Core site function, security, load balancing, saving your cookie choice | Always active |
| Functional | Remembering language and display preferences | Optional |
| Analytics | Aggregate, privacy-respecting usage statistics to improve the Site | Optional |
| Marketing | Measuring the effectiveness of campaigns that bring people to the Site | Optional |
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent because the Site cannot function without them. All other categories are off until you enable them.
Under the ePrivacy rules and the GDPR, we place non-essential cookies only on the basis of your consent, which you give freely through our banner. Strictly necessary cookies rely on our legitimate interest in operating a secure, functioning Site. Your consent is specific to each category, and you can withdraw it at any time as easily as you gave it. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
When you first visit, our banner lets you accept all, decline all, or choose per category. You can change your choice at any time by reopening the cookie settings from the banner or the footer. You can also control cookies in your browser settings — blocking or deleting them — though blocking strictly necessary cookies may break parts of the Site. Most browsers also offer a "Do Not Track" signal; because there is no common standard for it, we respond to your explicit banner choices rather than that signal.
Some cookies may be set by third-party services we use, such as analytics or content delivery. These providers act as our processors under data-processing agreements and may only use the data for the purposes we specify. Where such a provider is outside the European Economic Area, transfers are protected by an appropriate safeguard, as described in our Privacy Policy. We do not permit third parties to use cookies on our Site for their own independent advertising.
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period appropriate to their purpose — typically up to 12 months for consent and preference cookies, after which you will be asked again. You can delete cookies earlier at any time through your browser.
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies or the law changes; the version published here is the one in force. For questions about this policy or our use of cookies, contact legal@datacompasslabz.com. Last updated 5 July 2026.
