Your IP address and other technical details from your device, such as your operating system and browser, are stored in a technical log for 30 days. When you visit a page that includes a video, the same data passes on to our video service provider Vimeo. See Vimeo’s privacy policy.

We use Plausible Analytics to collect anonymous statistics about traffic to this site.

We use Google Ads conversion tracking to measure the effectiveness of advertising. Conversion tracking can count how many people who reach our site through Google Ads visit certain pages or perform certain other actions. We have configured conversion tracking so that it does not use cookies or store IP addresses or other personal data. Read more about privacy in Google Ads.

We use Vimeo to show you videos. When you start a video on our site, Vimeo may send your browser cookies, that is small text files, that it considers essential for the video experience. See Vimeo’s cookie policy and privacy policy.
