Cookies are small data files stored on your device when you visit a website. They can help websites remember information, maintain sessions, remember preferences, and understand how services are being used.
Sustainable Day and the services we use may also rely on technologies similar to cookies, such as local storage, session identifiers, pixels, and other technical mechanisms.
Not every technology used by a website is necessarily a cookie, so this policy also covers these similar technologies where relevant.
How Sustainable Day uses cookies
Depending on the service you use, cookies and similar technologies may be used to:
keep websites and services functioning;
maintain secure sessions;
remember your preferences;
remember language or other settings;
keep you signed in where applicable;
support account authentication;
protect services against abuse and security threats;
understand how our services are used;
improve performance and usability;
remember your cookie and privacy choices.
Some technologies are strictly necessary for a service to operate. For example, authentication and session technologies may be required to keep a signed-in session secure and functional. Such technologies are different from optional analytics or advertising technologies. European Commission
Meet Sustainable Day
When you use Meet Sustainable Day, cookies and similar technologies may be necessary to provide account and platform functionality.
These may support things such as:
maintaining your authenticated session;
keeping you signed in;
protecting your account;
remembering selected settings;
maintaining the functionality of meetings and bookings;
securely connecting different parts of the service.
If you choose to sign in using Google, Apple, LinkedIn, Facebook, or another supported authentication provider, that provider may also use its own cookies or similar technologies as part of its authentication process.
Those technologies are controlled by the relevant provider and are subject to that provider's own privacy and cookie policies.
Types of cookies we may use
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for core functionality.
They may be used for:
authentication;
security;
session management;
maintaining essential settings;
preventing fraudulent or abusive activity.
Because these technologies are necessary to provide a service you have requested, they may not require the same consent as optional cookies under applicable law. European Commission
Preference cookies
These help remember your choices, such as language, interface preferences, or cookie settings.
They make the experience more convenient by preventing you from having to repeat the same choices.
Analytics technologies
When we use analytics technologies, they can help us understand how visitors interact with Sustainable Day so we can improve our services.
Where consent is required, we will ask for it before placing or using the relevant optional technologies.
Third-party technologies
Some services integrated into Sustainable Day may use their own cookies or similar technologies.
These can include services involved in authentication, travel search, meetings, embedded content, analytics, security, or other functionality.
Third-party providers control their own technologies and may change them over time. Their processing is governed by their own privacy and cookie policies.
Your choices
Where applicable, Sustainable Day will provide controls that allow you to accept or refuse optional cookies and similar technologies.
You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings.
Keep in mind that blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause some features ā particularly account, authentication, or other interactive functionality ā not to work correctly. European Commission
Where consent is required, it should be freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous, and it should be possible to withdraw consent. European Commission
Cookies and personal information
A cookie itself does not automatically mean that we know who you are.
However, information associated with cookies or similar technologies can sometimes constitute personal data, for example where it can be linked to an identifiable user or device. The GDPR specifically recognises identifiers such as IP addresses and cookie IDs as potentially personal data. European Commission
Where this happens, the processing is also covered by our Privacy Policy.
Changes to this Cookie Policy
The technologies used by websites and online services can change as those services evolve.
We may therefore update this Cookie Policy when we introduce new functionality, change service providers, or change how cookies and similar technologies are used.
The latest version published here applies to the relevant Sustainable Day services.
