1. Principles of Cookie Usage: Strictly Necessary Only
The Mareante platform (mareante.nuuno.art) operates under a strict privacy-by-design standard:
- No Third-Party Advertising Cookies: We do not display commercial advertisements or partner with ad networks.
- No Behavioral Analytics or Tracking Pixels: We do not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, tracking beacons, or cross-site telemetry scripts.
- Strictly Necessary Technical Cookies Only: We use solely first-party cookies and local storage tokens that are indispensable to deliver the services explicitly requested by you (e.g., maintaining your authenticated session, preventing CSRF attacks, and preserving interface theme preferences).
Under Article 5(3) of Directive 2002/58/EC (ePrivacy Directive), EDPB Guidelines 2/2023 on the technical scope of Art. 5(3), and Article 45c of the Swiss Telecommunications Act (FMG / TCA, SR 784.10), technical storage or access strictly necessary for the delivery of an information society service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user is exempt from prior consent requirements. For this reason, Mareante does not display an intrusive cookie consent banner.
