Cookie Policy
Last updated: November 1, 2026
This policy explains how Datarist uses cookies and similar technologies on this website. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. They are widely used to make websites work and to give site owners information about how their site is used.
2. Cookies we use
We use Google Tag Manager to manage measurement tags. Google Tag Manager does not set cookies itself. The analytics tag we publish through it, Google Analytics, sets the following cookies:
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Google Analytics (first party) | Distinguishes returning visitors so visits can be counted and analysed. | 2 years |
_ga_<container-id> | Google Analytics (first party) | Keeps track of the current visit (session state). The name ends with the ID of our analytics property. | 2 years |
These are analytics cookies. We do not use advertising cookies on this website. The information they collect, which can include your IP address, pages viewed and device and browser details, is sent to Google. See Google’s privacy policy for how it handles that data.
3. Similar technologies
If you choose a colour theme (light, dark or automatic) using the menu in the page header, your choice is saved in your browser’s local storage under the name theme, so that it can be applied on your next visit. It stays on your device, is not sent to us, and is kept until you clear your browser data.
4. Managing and blocking cookies
You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings; how to do so varies by browser. Blocking all cookies can stop some parts of websites from working, but this website works without them. You can also use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, or a privacy extension that blocks analytics scripts.
5. Changes
We may update this policy, for example if we change the tags we use. The date at the top shows when it last changed.
