Cookie Policy | Ventures Atelier

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember information about your visit — for example, to keep you logged in or to remember your preferences.

Trackers is a broader term that also covers local storage, session storage, pixels, and fingerprinting techniques that achieve similar purposes.

2. How We Use Cookies

This website uses no advertising, analytics, or fingerprinting cookies or trackers of any kind.

We do not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or any similar third-party tracking service. No data about your browsing behaviour is collected for profiling or marketing purposes.

The only cookies that may be present are strictly necessary technical cookies placed by our hosting infrastructure (Vercel). These are described in the table below.

3. Cookies in Use

The following table lists all cookies that may be set when you visit this site.

Name	Set by	Purpose	Duration	Legal basis
__vcel_rampup	Vercel	Infrastructure routing — used to direct requests to the correct server instance during deployments. Only active during deployment transitions.	Session	Strictly necessary

If no deployment transition is active, no cookies may be set at all during a typical visit. You can verify this at any time using your browser's developer tools (Application → Storage → Cookies).

4. Why There Is No Consent Banner

Under Article 129 of the Belgian Electronic Communications Act and APD/GBA Recommendation No. 01/2020, prior informed consent is required only for cookies that are not strictly necessary for the technical operation of the service.

Because this site places no non-strictly-necessary cookies, no consent banner is required. If we ever introduce analytics or other non-essential cookies, we will update this policy and implement a compliant consent mechanism before activating them.

→Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
→Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
→Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
