1. Introduction
PangeaVox Translation uses cookies and similar technologies where they are necessary for the website to work or where the visitor has given consent for optional categories.
This policy explains what cookies are, which categories are used on this website, how long they may be retained, how Google Analytics is governed by consent, and how you can manage or withdraw your preferences.
2. What cookies are

Similar technologies may include local storage, session storage, pixels, tags, and embedded third-party tools.
3. Types of cookies
Cookies may be session cookies or persistent cookies.
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.

5. Strictly necessary cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website to function. They may support security, session handling, form submission, CSRF protection, cookie preference storage, and core website functionality.
These cookies do not require consent because the website cannot operate properly without them.
6. Analytics cookies
This website uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the website, which pages are visited, how users move through the website, and how the website performs.
Google Analytics is used only if you consent to Analysis & Performance in the Privacy settings tool. If you reject non-essential cookies, Google Analytics is not loaded by the consent-aware script.
Analytics information is used to improve website content, navigation, performance, and user experience. It is not used by PangeaVox Translation to identify you directly.
Google Analytics is provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow Street, Dublin D04 E5W5, Ireland. It may use cookies, pixels and JavaScript. Useful Google links include Google privacy information, Google cookie information and the Google Analytics opt-out tool.
7. Functionality and local feature storage
Functionality and local feature storage may remember selected preferences or enable enhanced website features.
Where functionality cookies are not strictly necessary, they are used only with consent.
8. Marketing, advertising and tag management cookies
Marketing cookies may be used for advertising, remarketing, campaign measurement, or tracking users across websites.
This website audit found no Google Ads, Google Ads Conversion, Google Ads Remarketing, Google AdServices, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, Google Fonts request or Google Tag Manager container in the current codebase after this update. These services are therefore not listed in the Privacy settings service list. If marketing or tag management tools are introduced in the future, they should be added to the consent system and used only after appropriate consent has been obtained.
9. Google Analytics and consent logic
This website uses Google Analytics for website measurement and performance analysis.
Google Analytics may use cookies or similar technologies to collect information such as pages visited, approximate location, device and browser information, session information, referral source, and interaction patterns. This information helps us understand how the website is used and how it can be improved.
Google Analytics is an optional analytics service. It loads only after you have consented to Analysis & Performance through the cookie banner or Privacy settings tool.
If you reject non-essential cookies, Google Analytics is not loaded. If you later withdraw analytics consent, future Google Analytics loading should be disabled. Where feasible, related analytics cookies are expired by the website. You may also delete existing cookies through your browser settings.
The retention period for Google Analytics data is configured in Google Analytics. The cookie table gives a general retention guide where visible from the usual Google Analytics cookie behaviour.
10. Embedded content and third-party services
Some pages may include embedded content or third-party services, such as videos, forms, analytics tools, support tools, content delivery networks, or external media.
Embedded content may behave as if you visited the third-party website directly. The About page video uses YouTube privacy-enhanced mode at youtube-nocookie.com, which is designed to limit cookie setting before playback, but YouTube may still process data when the video loads or is played according to its own policies.
Google Analytics is loaded only after Analysis & Performance consent has been given. Other third-party embedded content or existing front-end asset providers may be requested by the page where they are embedded and are described here for transparency.
11. Cookie retention
Cookie retention depends on the cookie type and provider.
Session cookies usually expire when the browser is closed. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period. Consent records may be retained for a reasonable period so the website can remember your cookie choice.
Google Analytics cookies may be retained according to Google Analytics configuration and the specific cookie type. Where known, the expected retention period is shown in the cookie category table.
12. How to manage or change cookie settings
You can manage cookies through the cookie banner or Privacy settings tool on this website.
If you want to change your choice after accepting or rejecting optional cookies, use the Cookie settings link available in the website footer or the button below. Rejecting non-essential cookies does not prevent you from using the website.
You can also delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect website functionality.
13. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our website, legal requirements, cookie use, consent tools, or third-party services.
The updated version will be published on this page with a revised Last updated date.
