Good news: there are no advertising cookies on swap-iit
We take your privacy very seriously. That is why swap-iit does not use any advertising tracking cookies or third-party analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel, etc.), and does not share any data with advertisers.
This policy sets out in detail the only cookies used on the website.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device (computer, phone, tablet) by a website you visit. It enables the site to recognise your browser and remember certain information.
Cookies used on swap-iit.com
Strictly necessary cookies (no consent required)
These cookies are essential for the website to function. Without them, the service cannot work properly.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Sender |
|---|---|---|---|
swapiit_bo | Keep you logged in as you navigate between pages, and protect your forms against fraudulent submissions (CSRF attacks) | Close browser | swap-iit.com |
In accordance with Article 5.3 of the ePrivacy Directive and the recommendations of the CNIL, these cookies do not require your prior consent, as they are strictly necessary for the provision of the service you have requested.
Functional cookies (with consent)
Currently: none.
We do not use any non-essential functional cookies during the waitlist phase.
Audience measurement cookies (no consent required)
Since 22 October 2026, we have been tracking website traffic using Matomo, an audience measurement tool hosted on a server that we manage ourselves. No data is passed on to third parties or used for advertising purposes.
It helps us to find out how many people visit swap-iit, which ones return, and which parts of the site are causing problems, so that we can improve it.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Sender |
|---|---|---|---|
_pk_id | Recognising a browser returning to the site | 13 months | swap-iit.com |
_pk_ses | Group together the pages viewed during a single visit | 30 minutes | swap-iit.com |
mtm_consent_removed | Record your refusal to take part in the audience measurement, only if you have requested this below | 13 months | swap-iit.com |
Your IP address is anonymised before being recorded. When you are logged in, your visits are linked to an encrypted identifier derived from your account – never to your username or email address – to help us understand how members use the site from one visit to the next. This data is never cross-referenced with data from any other site.
These cookies meet the conditions set by the CNIL to be exempt from consent: purpose limited to audience measurement, duration of no more than 13 months, anonymised IP address, no cross-referencing. You may, however, object to them at any time:
Do not track me on this browser
Advertising cookies
None. Never.
We do not use advertising cookies and do not plan to use them.
Third-party cookies
Currently: none.
The swap-iit.com website does not set any third-party cookies during the waitlist phase.
Important note: if you click on our links to social media platforms (TikTok, Instagram, Discord, Pinterest), you will leave our site and be redirected to those platforms, which set their own cookies in accordance with their own policies. We have no control over these cookies. Please consult the respective privacy policies of these platforms for further information.
