Cookie Policy

Upon revisiting the website, your browser transmits these files back to the server, enabling the site to identify your session, retain your settings, and analyze page performance. Equivalent mechanisms - including local storage, session storage, and small tracking pixels - function similarly, and this policy encompasses all such technologies under the umbrella term "cookies".

A cookie generally contains the name of the site that set it, a value (often a random identifier) and an expiry date. Cookies cannot read other files on your device and are not programs.

Kestrel Fundholm uses cookies to keep the website secure and functional, to remember the choices you make, to understand which pages are useful, and - where you have agreed - to measure the performance of our marketing. Strictly necessary cookies are set as soon as you open the site because the site cannot work without them. All other categories are only activated after you give consent, and you may withdraw that consent at any time.

Strictly necessary cookies

These keep the site usable: they maintain your session while you move between pages, balance traffic across servers, protect forms against automated abuse and remember the cookie choices you have already made. They do not build a profile of you and cannot be switched off through our banner, because without them core functions such as signing in would fail.

Preference (functionality) cookies

These store your chosen settings - such as the interface language, geographic location, visual preferences or whether you have closed an informational message. They enhance user experience but are not required; if you decline them, the site continues to function and will simply request your preferences each time you visit.

Analytics (performance) cookies

These enable us to measure page traffic, identify which content is accessed, track visitor duration and detect where problems arise. The data provided is compiled and anonymous: it shows us that a page is frequently visited or performs slowly, not your identity. We analyze this information to resolve issues and optimize the site's organization.

Marketing (advertising) cookies

These track the origin of your visit from a specific promotional campaign or promotional material, help prevent repeated exposure to identical content, and evaluate whether a promotional initiative resulted in a new account creation. Advertising partners across other platforms may access these cookies. They are exclusively established upon receiving your affirmative permission.

Session cookies exist only while your browser window is open and are erased automatically when you close it. Persistent cookies remain until their expiry date or until you delete them; on this site their lifetimes range from a few days to roughly two years, depending on the purpose. The exact expiry of an individual cookie can always be inspected in your browser’s storage settings.

We keep the record of your consent choices for a limited period so that the banner does not reappear at every visit; after that period we will ask again.

Certain cookies are deployed by third-party vendors performing functions under our direction, including those specializing in statistical analysis, information distribution, security measures or promotional effectiveness tracking. When you browse other websites utilizing their services, these vendors are able to access their own cookies. We do not have authority over third-party cookie content; how they handle collected information is subject to their respective privacy and cookie policies.

When a third-party cookie is not considered essential, it is deployed exclusively following your approval via the cookie notification system. To obtain information about which vendors are currently employed, reach out to our support team and we will share current vendor information.

Through our banner

Use the cookie banner or the cookie settings link on the site to accept or reject the preference, analytics and marketing categories. Rejecting a category stops new cookies of that type from being written; cookies already stored can be cleared through your browser.

Through your browser

All popular web browsers allow you to inspect saved cookies, remove them one at a time or completely, prevent cookies from specific domains, restrict all non-first-party cookies, or clear all data upon browser exit. These settings are generally accessible by selecting a menu option labeled "Settings", followed by "Privacy", "Privacy and security", "Site permissions" or "Cookies and site data". Internet browsers on portable devices provide identical features within their configuration menus, while mobile systems include independent settings for tracking identifiers used in promotional activities.

Private browsing

Opening the site in a private or incognito window means most cookies are discarded when you close that window, though this does not prevent them from being set during your visit.

Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent parts of the site from working: you may be unable to stay signed in, submit a form or complete a secure step. Blocking preference cookies means settings such as language are not remembered. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies has no effect on functionality - you will simply not be counted in our statistics and campaign measurement.

We review this policy periodically and update it when the cookies we use, the technologies behind them or the applicable rules change. The current version is always published on this page; material changes will be signalled on the site or through the cookie banner, and continued use after the update means the revised policy applies.

If you have a question about this policy, want details of a specific cookie or wish to exercise a data-protection right, please write to our support team through the contact page. Related documents are listed in the footer of every page, including our Privacy Policy.
