Last updated: 30 March 2026
This cookie policy explains how founderpersonalityquiz.com ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies in accordance with the EU GDPR and the German Telecommunication Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser when you visit a website. They help websites function properly, remember preferences, and understand how visitors use the site.
Cookies can be:
- Session cookies (deleted when you close your browser)
- Persistent cookies (stored for a defined period)
- First-party cookies (set by our website)
- Third-party cookies (set by service providers)
2. Types of cookies we use
2.1 Essential cookies
These are necessary for basic website functionality, such as security, page navigation, and quiz operation. This includes storage used to keep the requested multi-step quiz session running where the quiz flow relies on retaining in-progress state, including if the page reloads during the same quiz session. We treat these cookies and storage items as necessary only to the extent they are strictly required to provide the website or the session-based quiz service you have requested.
Legal basis: Article 6(1)(b) GDPR and TTDSG § 25(2)
2.2 Analytics cookies (optional)
If activated, these cookies help us understand how users interact with the website. They track aggregated, anonymised usage data (e.g. page visits, device information). We only load analytics tools after you have given explicit, affirmative consent via our cookie banner. Analytics cookies are not set on the basis of silence, inactivity, or pre-ticked choices.
Legal basis: Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and TTDSG § 25(1)
Where Google Analytics involves access from or transfer to the United States, Google states that such transfers rely on the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework for relevant transfers to Google LLC.
2.3 Preference cookies (optional)
If used, these store user settings such as language or display preferences.
Legal basis: Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and TTDSG § 25(1)
