What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device to remember information about your visit — for example your preferences or whether you have already seen the cookie banner. Similar technologies (such as local storage) are covered by this policy as well.
How this blog uses cookies
The dbi services blog uses three kinds of cookies:
- Necessary cookies are required for the site to function — for example to store your cookie consent choices. They are always active.
- Analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity) help us understand how visitors use the blog. They are set only after you accept them in the cookie banner.
- Marketing cookies (Salesforce Marketing Cloud, the marketing tool of the dbi services group) can link your visit to a contact record. They are set only after you accept them in the cookie banner, where they appear under “Advertisement”.
The blog also keeps a few values in your browser’s local storage, which is not a cookie: which easter eggs you have already found, your Snake scores, and whether you hid the egg-hunt status line. This data is written only after you trigger an egg, is not read by us or by anyone else, and disappears when you clear your browser data. Egg finds and Snake games are counted anonymously by our own server, as described in the Privacy Policy; no cookie is involved.
We do not sell data collected through cookies. Details on what the collected data is used for are in our Privacy Policy.

Managing your consent
You can review or change your cookie choices at any time: open the cookie preferences. Withdrawing consent takes effect for the future; cookies already set can be removed through your browser.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Note that blocking necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site from working properly.
Third-party cookies
Analytics cookies are provided by Google and Microsoft, marketing cookies by Salesforce. Embedded content in articles (for example YouTube videos) may also set third-party cookies once you have consented to the corresponding category. How these third parties use cookies is described in their own policies, for example Google’s cookie policy and the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
Changes and contact
We update this policy when the cookies we use change; the table above is kept current automatically. For questions, contact [email protected].
