Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 15, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, what types of cookies the website eccrowdfund.com (hereinafter, "the Site"), operated by Eccrowdfund S.A., uses, and how you can manage your preferences. This policy complies with Ecuadorian data protection regulations and with Google Consent Mode v2 standards.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. Cookies allow the site to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don't have to reconfigure them every time you return or navigate between pages.
2. Types of cookies we use
On the Site, we use the following categories of cookies:
Necessary cookies: These are essential for the Site to function. They include security cookies (security_storage) and basic functionality (functionality_storage). They cannot be disabled as without them the Site would not function properly. They do not require consent.
Analytics cookies (analytics_storage): Help us understand how visitors interact with the Site by collecting anonymous information. We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) for this purpose. These cookies are only activated with your prior consent.
Advertising cookies (ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization): Used to display relevant ads and measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns through Google Ads. They enable conversion tracking and ad personalization. They are only activated with your express consent.
Functional cookies (personalization_storage): Enable enhanced functionality such as remembering your language preferences or regional settings. They are activated only with your consent.
3. Google Consent Mode v2
Our Site implements Google Consent Mode v2, a system that manages the behavior of Google tags (Google Ads, GA4) based on user consent preferences. By default, all non-essential cookie categories are denied until you grant your explicit consent. When you accept or customize your cookie preferences, the system updates the consent state in real time, allowing Google tools to function according to your choices. Additionally, we use features such as 'ads_data_redaction' (activated when ad storage is denied) and 'url_passthrough' to maintain conversion measurement in a privacy-respectful manner.
4. How to manage your preferences
When you first visit our Site, you will be shown a cookie banner with the options to: Accept all cookies, Reject all non-essential cookies, or Manage your preferences individually by category. You can modify your preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie preferences" link available in the Site's footer. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings, although this may affect the Site's functionality.
5. Third-party cookies
Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. In particular, we use Google services (Google Ads with ID AW-18064110603 and Google Analytics 4) that may set their own cookies subject to Google LLC's privacy policies. We recommend consulting these third parties' privacy policies for more information about their cookie practices.
6. Retention period
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies have different validity periods depending on their purpose, generally between 30 days and 2 years. Your consent choice is stored locally on your device (localStorage) and is maintained until you modify it or clear your browser data.
7. Updates to this policy
We may periodically update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We recommend reviewing it periodically. The date of last update is indicated at the beginning of the document.
