1. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as your browser’s local storage, work in the same way. They help a website function, remember your choices or, with your consent, measure how the site is used.
2. Our approach
- We keep cookies to a minimum and use only what is needed to run this website.
- Any cookies that are not strictly necessary are used only after you have given your consent.
- We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies, and we do not sell data collected through cookies.
- We do not use cookie data to profile visitors or to train AI models.

Google does not set cookies for this, but your IP address is transmitted to Google when the page loads. Links to external websites, such as LinkedIn or mergiva-ai.com, are subject to the cookie and privacy policies of those sites.
