Cookie policy

Cookies are small text files stored in your browser. Söksmart uses as few as possible. Nothing beyond the strictly necessary ones loads until you have actively said yes in the cookie box — no analytics, no third-party pixels.
Söksmart Sverige AB (company no. 559568-7665) is the data controller. Read more about how personal data is handled in the privacy policy.
The categories we ask about
- Necessary: required for the site to work and to remember your choices. Cannot be switched off.
- Statistics: Google Analytics 4, anonymous measurement of visits. Optional.
- Marketing: advertising and retargeting pixels. Not in use today, but the choice stays available.

You can change your mind at any time — click the cookie icon at the bottom left of the page, or the button below. Your choice takes effect immediately.
Consent logging
When you make a choice we store an anonymous proof: timestamp, banner version, the categories you accepted and a random ID. No IP address, no name, no email. The log exists so the choice can be evidenced in an audit by the Swedish authority (IMY).
Google Consent Mode v2
Google Analytics runs with Consent Mode v2. Before you choose, all storage is set to "denied". If you decline, no cookies are collected — Google then uses anonymous, aggregated modelling only, with no identifiers.
