Cookie Policy

A cookie is a small text file a website asks your browser to keep so it can recognise you on a later visit. Similar technologies do the same job under other names — local storage, sessionStorage, pixels and browser fingerprints. When we say cookies in this policy, we mean all of them.

ETECH PROQUEST does not set its own cookies on this website. There is no advertising network, no cross-site behavioural profiling and no personalisation based on where you have been.

Because no non-essential cookies are set, the site does not show a cookie consent banner. If we ever add something that needs your say-so — analytics, an embedded video, a chat widget — we will ask for consent before switching it on, and update this page at the same time.

Here is every technology that touches your browser when you open a page here.

Web fonts — Google Fonts

• What: the typefaces used on this site are served from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com.
• Why: so the pages render in the same fonts on every device, instead of falling back to whatever your system has.
• Who sees what: your browser contacts Google for those files, so Google receives your IP address and the fact that the request came from this site. Google may keep its own logs or cookies under its own policy.
• Provider: Google LLC. See Google's privacy policy and how Google uses technologies.

Hosting and server logs

The platform that serves this site keeps standard technical logs — IP address, browser, device, page requested and timestamp — to deliver and protect the site. These are server records, not cookies placed in your browser.

Not used

No advertising cookies, no retargeting, no social media tracking pixels, and no third-party analytics or heat-map scripts are present on this website at present.

You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings, and nothing on this site will stop working if you do. Blocking everything is safe here, though it can break other sites you visit.

• Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Cookies and other site data.
• Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Site Data.
• Safari: Settings, then Privacy, then Manage Website Data.
• Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Manage and delete cookies.

Since we do not run tracking of any kind, a Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal from your browser needs no special handling — our behaviour is the same either way, and we do not sell or share personal information.

If we add a service that uses cookies, this page is updated first — with the new technology, its purpose, and how to refuse it. The date at the top shows the current version.
