Cookie Policy
Last updated: 03.11.2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Pexpats uses cookies and similar technologies on our website, what information they collect, and how you can manage your preferences.
We use essential cookies to keep our website working. With your permission, we also use analytics and advertising cookies to understand how visitors use Pexpats and measure the performance of our advertising.
You can accept, reject, or customize optional cookies at any time.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information, such as your preferences, and can also be used to understand how visitors interact with a website.
Some cookies are necessary for a website to work properly. Others are optional and are used for analytics or advertising.
Cookies can be stored by Pexpats or by third-party services that we use.
How we use cookies
We divide cookies into three categories.
Necessary cookies
Necessary cookies support essential website functionality and remember your cookie preferences.
These cookies are always enabled because they are required for the website to function properly.
They are not used for advertising.
Analytics cookies
With your permission, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our website.
This helps us see which pages are visited, how visitors navigate between pages, and how our online services and tools are used.
We use this information to identify problems and improve the website.
Analytics cookies are disabled unless you give your consent.
Marketing cookies
With your permission, we use Google Ads to measure the performance of our advertising campaigns.
These cookies help us understand how visitors reach our website through advertisements and which actions they take afterward, such as submitting a form or starting a registration.
Google may also use information collected through its advertising technologies for advertising purposes, depending on the services and settings involved.
Marketing cookies are disabled unless you give your consent.
