About this policy
This policy explains how Tomberg & Partners uses cookies and similar technologies on this website, what categories are used, how long they last, who sets them, and how you can change your choices at any time. It applies to every visitor to this website. It supplements our Privacy policy, which explains how we process personal data more generally, and our Terms of service, which govern your use of this site.
Tomberg & Partners is a company formation and licensing firm. We deliver that work ourselves and through a controlled network of vetted in-country specialists, and we are accountable for it. We are not ourselves a licensed financial institution. This site is general information about what we do, not legal, tax or financial advice.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. Cookies allow the site to recognise your device on later visits, remember basic choices, and gather statistics about how the site is used. Similar technologies, such as pixels, local storage, and tags, work in comparable ways and are treated as cookies for the purposes of this policy.
Cookies set by this website are first-party cookies. Cookies set by a third party whose content or service is loaded on this site are third-party cookies. Cookies that expire when the browser is closed are session cookies. Cookies that remain on the device for a defined period are persistent cookies.
Why we use cookies
We use cookies to run this site, measure how it is used, and support our marketing. We do not use cookies to build behavioural profiles for selling to third parties, and we do not run advertising on this website. Marketing cookies are used only to measure the performance of our own advertising.
Your choices, and the legal basis
Strictly necessary cookies are placed on the basis of our legitimate interest in operating a secure, functioning website. They are required to deliver the service you have requested. They cannot be switched off.
All other cookies are placed only after you have given clear, freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent through the cookie banner shown on your first visit. No non-essential cookies are placed before you make a choice. Pre-ticked boxes are not used.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the Cookie settings link in the site footer, which re-opens the banner. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before withdrawal.
Every non-essential category is denied by default, for every visitor, before any choice is made. A Global Privacy Control signal in your browser is therefore already honoured: nothing in the analytics or marketing categories is set unless you actively accept.
Categories of cookies we use
This site uses three categories of cookies. The exact cookies in each category, including names and durations, are listed in the table further below.
The two non-essential categories are currently consented together: the banner offers all cookies, or necessary cookies only. Per-category selection is not yet available, so accepting enables both analytics and marketing, and refusing enables neither.
Necessary cookies keep the site secure and operational. They support core functions such as page delivery, basic security, and remembering your cookie choice. They do not identify you personally and cannot be switched off, because the site would not function correctly without them.
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the site, in aggregate, so we can improve content and structure. The data is aggregated and does not identify you individually. We use Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, for this purpose. Analytics cookies are placed only with your consent.
Cookieless analytics, which is not a cookie category. We also use Plausible Analytics. It sets no cookie, writes nothing to your browser cache or local storage, and reads nothing from your device. A visit is counted using a hash calculated on Plausible’s own servers from your IP address, your browser and a secret that is replaced every 24 hours. The hash cannot be reversed, your IP address and browser string are not retained, and you cannot be recognised the following day or on any other website. What it produces is aggregate counts: pages, referring sites, countries, devices.
Because nothing is stored on or read from your device, Plausible falls outside the consent requirement in Estonian Electronic Communications Act §103¹ and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive, and it therefore runs whichever choice you make in the banner. It sets no cookie, so it appears nowhere in the table below — if you look for it there, that is why. The lawful basis for the brief processing of your IP address inside that hash is our legitimate interest in understanding how this website is used, and you may object at any time using the contact details at the end of this policy. Plausible Insights OÜ is registered in Estonia and stores the resulting data in Germany, so this data does not leave the European Economic Area.
Marketing cookies measure the effectiveness of our own advertising. We use Google Ads conversion measurement, loaded through Google Tag Manager. We do not run advertising on this website, and we do not use Meta or LinkedIn pixels. Marketing cookies are placed only with your consent.
Specific cookies
The table below lists the cookies set on this site. The list is updated when cookies, providers, or durations change. The names of cookies set by third-party processors are provided for transparency, in line with Estonian Electronic Communications Act §103¹ and the EDPB’s cookie-consent guidance.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
tp-consent-v1 | Tomberg & Partners (first-party, browser local storage) | Stores your cookie choice and the time you made it | 6 months | Necessary |
__cf_bm | Cloudflare (Cloudflare, Inc.) | Bot detection for the enquiry form and site delivery | 30 minutes | Necessary |
_ga | Google Analytics (Google Ireland Limited / Google LLC) | Distinguishes unique users for aggregated analytics | 2 years | Analytics |
_ga_\<container-ID\> | Google Analytics (Google Ireland Limited / Google LLC) | Maintains session state for GA4 | 2 years | Analytics |
_gcl_au | Google Ads (Google Ireland Limited / Google LLC) | Conversion linking and ad-effectiveness measurement | 90 days | Marketing |
If a tag manager, embedded video, scheduling tool, or other third-party service is added to the site later, this table is updated before any new cookie is set, and consent is sought where the cookie is non-essential.
Third-party processors and international data transfers
Where third-party cookies are set, the relevant providers process the resulting data as data controllers or joint controllers in their own right, under their own privacy policies. Of the third parties named above, Google and Cloudflare are part of corporate groups whose ultimate parent companies are established in the United States. As a result, the data collected by these cookies may be transferred outside the European Economic Area. Plausible Insights OÜ is an Estonian company hosting in Germany, and the data it collects is not transferred outside the European Economic Area.
Such transfers rely on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, on the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where applicable to the receiving entity, or on other safeguards permitted under Chapter V GDPR. Further information on transfer safeguards is set out in the Privacy policy.
How to change your choices on this site
On your first visit, the cookie banner offers two equally weighted choices:
- Accept all allows the analytics and marketing categories.
- Necessary only refuses every non-essential cookie. It is one click, and the button is the same size and in the same row as Accept all.
Nothing is pre-selected, and no non-essential cookie is set before you choose.
Your choice can be changed at any time by clicking the Cookie settings link in the site footer. If you move from Accept all to Necessary only, we stop the related tracking from that point forward; data already stored can be removed through your browser settings.
We ask for your consent again every six months, in line with the European Data Protection Board’s guidance.
Browser-level controls
Most browsers also let you view, block, or delete cookies through the browser’s own settings. Instructions vary by browser; the major browsers’ help pages explain the steps. Setting your browser to block all cookies, including necessary cookies, may prevent parts of this site from functioning.
What happens if you refuse
Refusing non-essential cookies does not block your access to this website. The site remains available, and we do not condition access to content on consent to non-essential cookies. We do not measure your visit in Google Analytics, and we do not measure the effectiveness of our advertising for your visit. Our cookieless analytics still counts the visit in aggregate, because it stores nothing on your device and does not identify you; counting is the whole of what it does. The substance of the services described on this site is not affected.
Updates to this policy
We may update this policy when the cookies, providers, durations, or relevant rules change. The current version is shown above with the last-updated date and version number. Where a change introduces a new non-essential cookie or a new processing purpose, we ask for fresh consent before that change takes effect.
