Cookies

This page explains how Howspace Oy uses cookies on the Howspace website, which cookies we use and how you can control them.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. They let the site remember things between page views, such as your cookie choice, and help us understand how the site is used. Some cookies are set by Howspace (first-party cookies) and some by services we use on the site (third-party cookies).

How we use cookies

We group our cookies into four categories:

  • Necessary cookies keep the site working and secure. They are always on.
  • Statistics cookies help us understand how visitors use the site, so we can improve it.
  • Marketing cookies measure how our advertising performs and let us show relevant Howspace ads on other websites.
  • Preferences cookies remember choices you make. We do not currently use any.

We use necessary cookies because the site cannot work without them. All other cookies are only used if you allow them in the cookie banner you see on your first visit.

Your choices

You can allow all cookies, deny all optional cookies or choose by category. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time with the button below. Your new choice applies from that moment on.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block necessary cookies, parts of the site may not work.

Cookies we use

The tables below list the cookies our website sets, grouped by category. The lifetime is how long a cookie stays in your browser unless you delete it.
