Cookies Policy
What cookies we use and why — ePrivacy & GDPR aligned
1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website. It allows the website to recognise your device, remember preferences and operate correctly. Similar technologies (local storage, pixels, fingerprints) are treated equivalently under this policy.
2. Our approach
SIDD operates a low-tracking, institutional website. We use only the cookies strictly necessary for the website to function and for security. We do not use advertising, profiling, retargeting or cross-site tracking cookies.

Where this list changes, the table above will be updated. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive.
4. What we do NOT use
- No Google Analytics, no Meta Pixel, no LinkedIn Insight, no advertising cookies.
- No third-party trackers or social embeds that set cookies on first visit.
- No cross-device or cross-site identification.
5. Managing cookies in your browser
You can configure or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Useful documentation:
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may degrade website performance or security checks.
