Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Global Energy Label (“Global Energy Label”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website globalenergylabel.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use and protect personal data.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to website owners. Cookies can be “session” cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them.

Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by third parties that provide services to that website, such as analytics or advertising providers (“third-party cookies”).

2. What Cookies We Use

We use different types of cookies on globalenergylabel.com for the purposes described below. The specific cookies used may change over time as we improve and update our website, but they generally fall into the following categories.

2.1 Essential and Functional Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of our website and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions made by you that amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in (if applicable), filling in forms or navigating between pages.

We also use functional cookies to remember choices you make (such as language preferences, where applicable) and to provide enhanced features. Without these cookies, some parts of the site may not work correctly.

2.2 Analytics Cookies

We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use our website, so we can measure and improve its performance. For example, these cookies help us know which pages are the most and least popular, how visitors move around the site and whether they encounter errors.

In particular, we use WordPress.com (Automattic) statistics and analytics tools, which may set cookies to collect information such as your anonymised IP address, browser type, referring pages and the pages you visit on our website. We use this information only in aggregated form and do not use it to identify you personally.

2.3 Marketing and Preference Cookies

Marketing and preference cookies may be used to personalise content, remember your preferences and, where applicable, measure the effectiveness of our communications. These cookies may be set by us or by carefully selected third parties that provide services to us.

Where such cookies are used and where required by law, we will ask for your consent before they are placed on your device. You can withdraw your consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings as described below.

3. How to Manage or Disable Cookies

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies or to alert you when cookies are being placed on your device. Please note that if you disable certain cookies, some features of our website may not function properly.

The instructions for managing cookies vary depending on your browser. Below are links to the guidance provided by major browsers (these links may change over time):

You can also delete cookies that have already been stored on your device at any time. For more information on cookies and how to manage them, you can visit independent resources such as www.allaboutcookies.org or www.youronlinechoices.eu (for EU users).

4. Third-Party Cookies

Our website is hosted on and makes use of services provided by WordPress.com and its parent company Automattic Inc. These service providers may set their own cookies in order to deliver core platform functionality, security, performance monitoring and analytics (such as WordPress.com Stats).

These third-party cookies are subject to the privacy and cookie policies of those providers. We do not control how these cookies are used once they are set. For more information on how WordPress.com and Automattic use cookies, please refer to the information available at automattic.com/cookies.

5. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example to reflect changes in the cookies we use, legal or regulatory developments, or improvements to our services. When we make changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the end of this policy. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
