• To understand how you use our Services
• To improve our Services based on usage patterns

We run the Meta (Facebook) Pixel and Google Ads on this website to measure our campaigns and to show our ads to people who have visited it. These cookies are set only when Marketing is switched on in your cookie choices. When it is off, the Meta Pixel sends nothing, and Google's tags run in a restricted mode that neither sets nor reads these cookies.

3.5 Referral and Attribution Cookies

These first-party cookies record how you reached us and what you were looking at, so a partner who referred you is credited, we know which campaign brought you, and our signup form can start on the industry you were reading about.

• In the European Union, EEA and United Kingdom: they are set only after you switch Marketing on in your cookie choices. Until then, any referral or campaign details in the link you arrived through are held in your browser's memory for the current visit only, and are discarded if you do not opt in. Switching Marketing off later removes them.
• Everywhere else: they are set when you arrive, regardless of your cookie choices.

• axoix_ref: The partner referral code, when you arrive through a partner's link (30 days)

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that they not track your browsing activity. Currently, there is no uniform standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals.

AXOIX respects DNT signals, and the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, by treating them as equivalent to rejecting optional cookies in our consent banner. You can still switch individual categories on through Cookie Settings.
