Privacy & Cookie Overview
Welcome to onlinegewinnrakete.com. We're a simple website that lists and links to other websites, so you can quickly find what you're looking for. This page explains, in plain language, what information we collect when you visit, why we collect it, and how cookies work on our site.
Because our site only lists links and doesn't ask you to sign up or create a profile, most of what we collect happens automatically in the background while you browse — not because you've filled anything in.
onlinegewinnrakete.com is responsible for the information described on this page. If anything here is unclear, or you'd like to ask us something directly, you'll find our contact details at the bottom of this page.
Technical details Things like your device type, browser, and general settings, so our site displays properly wherever you're browsing from. This also includes basic details like your screen size and which language your browser is set to.
Browsing activity Which pages you visit, how long you stay, and which links you click, so we understand how people use the site. This helps us notice, for example, if a page is confusing or a link isn't working the way it should.
General location A rough idea of where you're browsing from, usually accurate to a city or country level — never your exact position. We use this mainly to understand our overall audience, not to identify any one visitor.
Referral details When you arrive on our site through a search engine, another website, or a shared link, we can usually see roughly where you came from. This helps us understand which sources bring visitors to the site.
Messages you send us If you email us, we keep that conversation so we can reply and follow up properly.
We never ask for sensitive details like health information, and we don't collect anything beyond what's listed above.
- To keep the site running smoothly
- To understand which parts of the site are useful, so we can improve it
- To reply to messages you send us
- To keep the site secure
We don't use anything we collect to make automated decisions about you.
We rely on a mix of your consent (for optional cookies), our legitimate interest in keeping the site running well, and simply needing to reply when you contact us.
You can withdraw consent at any time — this won't affect anything that happened before you did.
When you follow a link from our website, you leave onlinegewinnrakete.com and become subject to the privacy practices of the external website. We encourage you to review their privacy information before providing any personal information.
To support the operation of our website, we may work with selected third-party service providers, including website hosting and analytics providers. These providers only process information where necessary to deliver their services.
We do not sell personal information or share it for purposes unrelated to the operation of our website.
Where information is transferred outside the European Economic Area, appropriate safeguards are applied in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including, where relevant, the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
We keep things only as long as they're useful. Technical logs are usually cleared or anonymised after a short period. Cookie data follows the timelines in the cookie table below. Email conversations are kept only as long as needed to follow up properly.
As a visitor based in Ireland, you have a few rights worth knowing about:
- See what we hold about you
- Correct anything that's wrong
- Delete information that's no longer needed
- Object to how it's used
- Limit how it's used, in some cases
- Receive a copy of anything you've given us, in a usable format
None of these require any special process on your end — a short email is all it takes. We'll ask a few questions if needed just to confirm it's really you, then take care of the rest.
To use any of these, just email us — details are below. You can also raise a concern with the Data Protection Commission if you feel something isn't right.
What's a cookie, really?
Picture a tiny sticky note your browser keeps on a shelf. That's basically what a cookie is — a small file saved on your device that lets our site remember something the next time you visit. It might remember a setting you picked, or simply that you've been here before.
Cookies can't dig through your files, carry viruses, or do anything harmful on their own. They just hold small bits of information.
Why our site uses them
- To make sure the basic site works properly
- To remember small choices you make while browsing
- To understand, in general terms, how visitors move around the site
- To see how many visitors follow a link through to an external website
The different kinds we use
Essential cookies These keep the site working at a basic level — think of them as the foundation. Without them, parts of the site simply wouldn't function. Because they're essential, they don't need your permission.
Preference cookies These remember small choices, like a setting you picked earlier, so you don't have to set it again on your next visit.
Analytics cookies These give us a general, anonymous sense of how the site is used — which pages get visited, how long people stay, and which paths are common. We only look at this in aggregate; it's never about tracking one specific visitor.
Referral cookies These simply note when a visitor follows a link from our site through to an external website. It's how a directory-style site like ours understands which listings are useful.
How long do they stick around?
- Session cookies disappear the moment you close your browser. They only exist for the length of your visit.
- Stored cookies stay on your device for a set stretch of time — anywhere from a few days to a couple of years — or until you clear them yourself.
Managing your cookies
You're always free to change your mind about cookies. There are two easy ways to do it:
Through our cookie banner The first time you visit, a simple banner lets you choose which types of cookies you're comfortable with. You can revisit this choice any time through the cookie settings, usually found at the bottom of the site.
Through your browser Every browser lets you view, clear, or block cookies through its settings — usually somewhere under "Privacy" or "Cookies." Turning off cookies entirely may mean parts of the site don't work quite as smoothly, since some features rely on them.
Changing your mind later
If you ever want to update your cookie choices, just reopen the cookie settings on the site, or clear your cookies through your browser and revisit — the banner will pop back up so you can choose again.
A few common questions
Will turning off cookies break the site? Essential cookies will still work either way, since they're needed for the basics. Turning off the others just means some things — like a remembered setting — won't carry over between visits.
Can cookies identify me personally? Not by name. They're tied to your browser or device, not to you as an individual, and the information we gather from them is looked at in aggregate rather than singled out.
Do I need to accept cookies to use the site? No. Essential cookies keep the basics running regardless of your choice, and everything else is entirely up to you.
We take reasonable steps to protect the information we hold, including encrypting data in transit, limiting who can access it, and keeping our systems up to date. No system online is ever completely risk-free, so it's always sensible to stay a little careful with what you share, wherever you're browsing.
We may update this page occasionally — for instance, if something in the law changes, or if we adjust how the site runs. Whatever's posted here is always the current version, and the date at the top tells you when it was last updated.
