Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device by a web server when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, ensure secure logins, and provide analytical information to the site owners. We also use similar technologies like HTML5 Local Storage, which functions similarly to cookies but allows for more secure and efficient data storage directly within your browser.
Our use of cookies is designed to balance optimal user experience with strict privacy standards. We use cookies to remember whether you have seen and interacted with our cookie consent banner, to secure our forms against automated spam, and, only with your consent, to understand how visitors interact with our content (such as our Research Notes) so we can improve our strategic offerings.
These cookies and storage objects are strictly necessary for the core functionality, security, and basic operation of the website. Because they are critical to the platform's operation, they cannot be disabled in our systems. Essential items include:
zp_cookie_consent (Local Storage): Remembers your privacy preferences so you are not asked repeatedly upon every page load.If authorised via our initial consent banner, we may deploy minimal, privacy-focused analytics cookies. These help us understand which research notes and modules are most useful to our visitors, measure page load times, and map navigation paths. These cookies aggregate data anonymously and do not directly identify individual users. We do not use highly invasive tracking networks.
We strictly limit the use of third-party cookies on zentpixelspt.com. We do not host external advertising banners that track your behaviour across the web. However, if we embed content from external platforms (such as specific video players for demonstrations or external data visualisation widgets), those providers may set their own cookies. We will always strive to embed such content using "enhanced privacy modes" where available.
The cookies we use fall into two lifespan categories:
zp_cookie_consent) is persistent so your choice is remembered for future visits.You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can manage your preferences on our platform at any time by clearing your browser's local storage or cookie cache for this site. Doing so will reset the system, and our consent banner will appear again on your next visit, allowing you to establish new preferences.
Additionally, you can configure your web browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent. To learn more about managing cookies, please refer to the specific documentation for your browser:
Some web browsers incorporate a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Currently, our core essential operations do not alter behaviour based on DNT signals, but our non-essential analytics are fully dependent on your explicit opt-in via our banner, making the DNT signal effectively redundant for tracking prevention on our site.
We may update this Cookie Policy occasionally to reflect changes in our technical operations, the introduction of new services, or relevant legal frameworks (such as ePrivacy Directive updates). Any changes will be published directly on this page.
