This notice concerns schtelbe.com, operated by SIA Schtelbe Technologies, company registration 40203529503, VAT LV40203529503, Grostonas iela 19 - 1, Rīga, LV-1013, Latvia. Email: info@schtelbe.com. It explains browser storage and optional Google Analytics alongside our Privacy Policy.
Looking for the game? See What Is Falling: privacy, cookies and app storage, available in English, Latvian and Russian. Website cookie choices do not change the game's analytics settings.
1. Your choice
Our consent control is served by this website. You can accept analytics, reject it, or change your choice using Cookie settings in the footer. Optional analytics is off by default. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are not requested until you explicitly allow analytics; rejecting it does not prevent browsing, using the calculator or making an enquiry.
The optional category is Analytics. Advertising consent remains denied. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, the website keeps optional analytics off even if you previously allowed it. This is a privacy-protective choice we apply to this website; it does not turn GPC into consent for another purpose.
2. Cookies used by this website
Cookies are small values stored by your browser. Our preference cookie is necessary to remember and respect your decision. Analytics cookies are optional and are used only with your consent.
| Name / provider | Purpose and category | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
cc_cookieSchtelbe Technologies; first-party | Remembers your accepted categories, the consent revision and timing. Necessary; does not require optional analytics consent. | 182 days after saving your choice, unless cleared earlier. |
_gaGoogle Analytics; first-party | Distinguishes browsers for website usage measurement. Analytics; requires your consent. | Configured for up to 182 days, without extending expiry on each visit. Browser limits may shorten this. |
_ga_*Google Analytics; first-party | Persists Analytics session state; the suffix identifies the relevant property. Analytics; requires your consent. | Configured for up to 182 days, subject to browser limits. |
Google documents its cookie purposes and defaults in GA4 cookie usage. A cookie's browser lifetime is different from the time a provider retains information already received. Our Privacy Policy explains retention criteria and how to request further information.
3. What optional analytics does
With your permission, Google Tag Manager loads Google Analytics to measure visits and website use. Requests can disclose technical information such as your IP address and browser details to Google; analytics can also use cookie identifiers, page and interaction information, and approximate location. Analytics is not an anonymous service simply because it does not ask for your name.
Website enquiry text, email addresses and calculator salary inputs are not intentionally sent to Analytics. Read Google's privacy information and the recipient and international-processing section of our Privacy Policy for more information.
4. Rejecting or withdrawing consent
Use Cookie settings to switch analytics off. The website updates your saved choice, removes known accessible first-party Google analytics cookies and reloads when needed to stop tags that were already running. It then blocks further optional loading. A GPC signal also prevents optional analytics.
This cannot delete cookies set on another provider's domain or erase information already received by Google. You can use your browser's site-data controls to remove stored cookies, and contact us about a personal-data deletion request. Withdrawal does not affect lawful processing carried out before it.
Deleting cc_cookie, changing browser or using a new device means your saved choice is unavailable and optional analytics remains off until you choose again. We ask again after the preference expires or a material consent revision. Earlier consent versions are not reused for this revision.
5. External services and essential requests
The website can be delivered, and an enquiry can be sent, without optional analytics. Website hosting receives the technical information needed to respond to a page request. Submitting the enquiry sends its contents to Formspree, as explained in the Privacy Policy. The contact page embeds Google Maps, which connects to Google when loaded and may access or set Google cookies independently of your analytics choice. Google controls those cookies under its own privacy information. External links, such as social profiles, open separate services with their own controls.
6. Changes and contact
We will update this notice when relevant services or storage practices change. The date above identifies this version. Contact info@schtelbe.com, +371 223 46 114, or our postal address above about these choices or your privacy rights.
