This Cookies Policy explains how ixelero.com, operated by CSIKI CAPITAL SRL, uses cookies and similar technologies, how we comply with Google Consent Mode v2 and the GDPR, and how you control your preferences.
1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies can be first-party (set by the site itself) or third-party (set by services the site loads, like analytics or ad platforms). Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and pixel tags.
2. How we treat consent (Consent Mode v2)
We implement Google Consent Mode v2. This means:
- All non-essential tracking is denied by default when you first arrive. Nothing identifying is sent to Google or any ad platform until you consent.
- When our Cookies Policy allows a specific tag to run without identifying you (ad data redaction mode), only aggregated, non-identifying signals may be sent — this is a Google-controlled behavior and does not involve your personal cookies.
- When you accept, we update consent signals and the relevant tags begin to operate normally.
- Your choice is stored locally on your device (localStorage key
ixelero-cookie-consent-v2) and respected on every subsequent visit until you clear it.
3. Categories we use
3.1 Strictly necessary (always active)
Required for the site to function — language preference, form submissions, security tokens. These cannot be disabled.
3.2 Analytics (consent required)
Measures how visitors interact with the site to help us improve it — pages visited, time on page, device, approximate location. May be loaded via Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics 4, or similar.
3.3 Advertising (consent required)
Enables us to show relevant ads to visitors on other sites (Google, Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube) and measure the effectiveness of our campaigns. May include advertising cookies, remarketing lists, and conversion tracking pixels.
3.4 Personalization (consent required)
Remembers preferences such as your preferred language for a more adapted experience.
4. Specific cookies and tags we may deploy
Depending on your consent, the following may be set. If none of these are relevant to the current state of the site, this section serves as our forward-looking policy; we update it when a tag is actually activated.

6. Your rights (GDPR)
Under the GDPR, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time, access the data processed about you, request rectification or erasure, restrict or object to processing, and lodge a complaint with the Romanian data protection authority (ANSPDCP, dataprotection.ro).
