Cookie-Einstellungen

Effective Date: 15 July 2026

This Cookie Settings page explains how Safegate Advisors SRL uses cookies, pixels, tags, local storage, server logs, embedded scripts, and similar technologies on https://www.safegateadvisors.com/ and related pages, tools, forms, broker reviews, broker matching questionnaires, comparison tools, safety alerts, newsletters, and user feedback features.

For simplicity, this page uses the term "Trackers" to refer to cookies and similar technologies. Where a specific browser cookie is meant, we use the term "Cookie".

Some Trackers are necessary for the Website to work. Other Trackers are optional and are used only where permitted by law and, where required, after you give your consent through the Cookie Settings panel or cookie banner.

This page should be read together with our Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, Disclaimer, Risk Disclosure, Advertiser Disclosure, and Methodology page, where available.

The Website is operated by Safegate Advisors SRL, a company incorporated in Romania. For data protection purposes, Safegate Advisors SRL is the controller of personal data collected through the Website unless a specific notice says otherwise.

Cookies are small text files placed on or read from your browser or device. They can remember information such as your cookie choices, session status, language, region, page interactions, or referral source.

Trackers also include similar technologies such as pixels, tags, web beacons, local storage, scripts, SDKs, e-tags, fingerprinting tools, and embedded third-party components that may store information on your device or access information already stored there.

Trackers may be first-party, meaning they are set directly by Safegate Advisors, or third-party, meaning they are provided by external services such as analytics providers, security tools, consent-management providers, advertising platforms, affiliate networks, video providers, or embedded charting tools.

Safegate Advisors may use Trackers to operate and secure the Website, remember your choices, provide broker comparison and matching tools, measure Website performance, understand how users interact with broker reviews and safety tools, deliver newsletters and safety alerts, display embedded content, measure advertising campaigns, and attribute affiliate referrals.

Safegate Advisors is not a broker, does not accept deposits, does not execute trades, and does not provide individualized investment advice. Cookies and Trackers used on our Website support website functionality, analytics, safety-alert communications, personalization, advertising measurement, and affiliate attribution. They do not make trading decisions for you.

You can manage optional Trackers through the Cookie Settings panel available on the Website. Strictly necessary Trackers are always active because the Website cannot function properly without them.

Strictly necessary Trackers are used to provide the Website and its essential features. They may be used without opt-in consent where permitted by applicable law, but they are still explained in this Cookie Settings page.

These Trackers may support page loading, security, bot protection, fraud prevention, rate limiting, cookie-consent storage, account login, session management, form submission, privacy-preference records, load balancing, and similar technical functions.

Examples may include Safegate first-party session cookies, consent-preference cookies, security cookies, hosting or CDN cookies, and anti-abuse tools such as a CAPTCHA or bot-management solution if implemented.

Functional and preference Trackers help the Website remember choices and provide a smoother experience. These may include language, region, display mode, saved filters, saved broker lists, questionnaire progress, watchlist settings, and alert preferences.

Where these Trackers are not strictly necessary, we will use them only where permitted by law and, where required, after your consent.

Analytics and performance Trackers help us understand how users use the Website, which pages and tools are useful, where errors occur, and how we can improve broker reviews, broker comparison tools, safety checks, alerts, and educational content.

These Trackers may measure page views, clicks, scrolls, searches, questionnaire interactions, broker profiles viewed, comparison-tool usage, referral sources, campaign sources, session duration, approximate location, device type, and technical diagnostics.

Where required by law, analytics Trackers are used only after you consent. We may use aggregated or anonymized analytics where possible.

The Website may display or interact with third-party content such as videos, charts, data visualizations, forms, surveys, customer-support widgets, newsletter widgets, map tools, or social media embeds.

Such providers may set or read their own Trackers when the external content loads or when you interact with it. Where possible and required, Safegate Advisors will delay loading non-essential embedded content until you choose to activate the relevant category or interact with the content.

Marketing and advertising Trackers help measure advertising campaigns, understand whether an ad led to a visit or conversion, limit repeated ads, create advertising audiences, and show relevant marketing content on third-party platforms.

Safegate Advisors may use advertising Trackers only where permitted by law and, where required, after you provide consent. These Trackers may be provided by advertising platforms such as Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, X, Reddit, AdRoll, or similar providers if implemented.

Advertising Trackers may process identifiers, click IDs, page views, referral URLs, campaign source, device information, approximate location, conversion events, and other usage data.

Safegate Advisors may receive compensation from brokers, advertisers, affiliate partners, affiliate networks, or service providers when users click links, visit third-party websites, open accounts, subscribe, or complete qualifying actions.

Affiliate and conversion Trackers help attribute these actions to Safegate Advisors and measure the performance of disclosed commercial relationships. This may include referral URLs, affiliate identifiers, click IDs, campaign IDs, timestamp, device information, conversion status, and limited usage data.

Affiliate tracking does not mean that Safegate Advisors sells your private questionnaire answers to brokers. We do not provide brokers with private broker-matching answers unless you ask us to do so, consent to such sharing, or a specific feature clearly states that sharing will occur.

Safegate Advisors may use first-party cookies or similar technologies to remember broker-matching questionnaire progress, saved broker comparisons, watchlists, broker interests, alert settings, and previous interactions with safety tools.

These technologies help provide more relevant broker matches, safety reports, regulatory updates, complaint tracking, safety-score updates, and educational content. Any such output is informational only and does not constitute investment advice or a guarantee that a broker is safe or suitable for you.

If you subscribe to safety alerts or newsletters, we may use Trackers in emails or on the Website to understand whether messages are delivered, opened, clicked, or unsubscribed, where permitted by law and your communication preferences.

When you make choices in the Cookie Settings panel, Safegate Advisors or its consent-management provider may store a record of your preferences. This helps us remember your choices, demonstrate compliance, and avoid asking you the same question on every visit.

The Cookie Settings panel should allow you to accept all optional Trackers, reject non-essential Trackers, or customize your choices by category. You can update or withdraw your consent at any time by reopening Cookie Settings from the Website footer or other available link.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal. It also does not delete cookies already stored in your browser by third parties; you may need to delete those through your browser or device settings.

Third-party Trackers are provided by external companies. Safegate Advisors does not fully control how third-party providers operate their own technologies once they are loaded, and their processing may be governed by their own privacy policies and cookie notices.

The provider list in the live Cookie Settings panel should be considered the current operational list of Trackers. Because tracking technologies and provider configurations can change, users should also consult the privacy policies of the relevant third-party services for the most up-to-date details about their cookies, retention periods, opt-out options, and processing locations.

Safegate Advisors is established in Romania. Some third-party providers used for hosting, analytics, security, advertising, affiliate tracking, communication, or embedded content may process data in the European Economic Area or in other countries.

Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area or another jurisdiction requiring transfer safeguards, Safegate Advisors seeks to use appropriate mechanisms where required, such as adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, supplementary safeguards, or other lawful transfer mechanisms.

You can manage optional cookies and Trackers through the Cookie Settings panel. The panel should be available from the cookie banner and from a permanent footer link called "Cookie Settings".

In Cookie Settings, you can review categories, enable or disable optional categories, save your choices, reject non-essential Trackers, or accept all optional Trackers. You can change your choices later at any time.

• Accept all: enables all optional categories where consent is required.
• Reject non-essential: disables optional categories and keeps only strictly necessary Trackers active.
• Customize: lets you choose categories one by one.
• Save settings: stores your current choices.

You can also control cookies through your browser or device settings. Browser controls may allow you to view, block, delete, or restrict cookies. However, browser settings usually do not provide the same category-by-category consent choices as the Website Cookie Settings panel.

Common browsers provide cookie controls in their privacy or security settings, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Microsoft Edge, Brave, and Opera. Mobile devices may also provide advertising identifier and tracking controls in device settings.

In addition to Cookie Settings, you may be able to opt out of certain interest-based advertising through industry tools and platform settings, such as YourOnlineChoices in Europe, the Network Advertising Initiative, the Digital Advertising Alliance, platform ad settings, or device advertising settings.

These tools are operated by third parties. They may not cover every advertising provider and may work differently depending on your browser, device, location, and whether cookies are enabled.

You are free to reject optional Trackers. If you reject or block Trackers, you will still be able to use the basic Website, but some features may not work as intended.

For example, the Website may not remember preferences, broker matching progress may not persist, embedded content may not load, analytics may be less accurate, personalized safety alerts may be less relevant, and affiliate attribution may not work correctly.

If you block strictly necessary cookies through your browser, core Website functions, security, account login, forms, or consent records may fail.

Cookies may be session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain for a defined period unless deleted earlier. Tracker duration depends on the provider, purpose, configuration, and your choices.

Safegate Advisors aims to configure Trackers with reasonable retention periods. Consent records are usually retained for as long as needed to demonstrate and respect your choices. Analytics, advertising, and affiliate cookies follow the durations configured by the relevant provider and should be listed in the live Cookie Settings panel where possible.

You can delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. If you delete consent cookies, the Website may ask for your preferences again.

We may update this Cookie Settings page from time to time to reflect changes in the Website, Trackers, providers, technologies, legal requirements, business model, or data-processing practices.

Where required by law, we will request renewed consent before using new optional Trackers or materially changing the purposes for which optional Trackers are used.

For questions, requests, complaints, or concerns about cookies, Trackers, or your privacy choices, please contact Safegate Advisors SRL.
