Last updated: September 6, 2026

BizIndex.ai uses cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for the proper operation of the Platform, as well as analytics cookies for statistical purposes and to help us improve the service.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small files stored in your browser or on your device when you visit a website. They may be used to maintain a user session, remember preferences, and collect statistical information about how a website is used.

2. What types of cookies do we use?

Necessary cookies

These cookies are required for the operation and security of BizIndex.ai. They support essential functions such as maintaining user sessions, signing in to an account, saving preferences, and providing other core features of the Platform.

Necessary cookies are not used for advertising or marketing tracking and cannot be disabled through the Platform's cookie settings.

Analytics cookies

BizIndex.ai uses Matomo and Google Analytics to collect statistical information about visits to the Platform and how it is used.

Matomo is hosted and managed by BizIndex.ai. It allows us to obtain statistical information about visits, pages viewed, traffic sources, and interactions with the Platform.

Google Analytics is an analytics service provided by Google. It may collect statistical information such as pages visited, visit duration, approximate location, device type, and browser information.

Some public landing pages on BizIndex.ai may also use a separate Google Analytics account controlled by the author of the relevant page. In such cases, analytics data relating to your visit may be sent both to the Google Analytics account used by BizIndex.ai and to the Google Analytics account controlled by that page author.

The author of the page determines how statistical information available through their own Google Analytics account is used and is responsible for ensuring that such use complies with applicable law.

Cookie Service Purpose Typical duration
_pk_id Matomo Distinguishing between new and returning visits. up to 13 months
_pk_ses Matomo Linking actions performed during a single visit. 30 minutes
_pk_ref Matomo Recording information about the source of the visit. up to 6 months
_ga Google Analytics Distinguishing individual visitors. up to 2 years
_ga_* Google Analytics Storing information related to a visit and user session. up to 2 years

The specific names and retention periods of analytics cookies may vary depending on the configuration in use and on whether a particular page uses only the analytics services operated by BizIndex.ai or also a Google Analytics account controlled by the page author.

3. Consent to analytics cookies

Necessary cookies may be used without prior consent because they are required to provide the Platform's essential functionality.

Analytics cookies used by Matomo, Google Analytics operated by BizIndex.ai and, where applicable, Google Analytics operated by the author of a particular page are activated only after you have given your consent.

You may accept or reject analytics cookies and may change your choice at any time through the cookie settings available on BizIndex.ai.

You can reject analytics cookies without affecting the essential functionality of the Platform.

4. Managing cookies through your browser

You may also delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Please note that blocking necessary cookies may prevent certain features from working properly, including the ability to sign in to a user account.

5. Processing of personal data

Information about how personal data is processed, including the purposes and legal bases for processing, retention periods, and your rights, is available in the BizIndex.ai Privacy Policy.

Where a particular page uses a Google Analytics account controlled by its author, certain analytics data may also be accessible to that author through their Google Analytics account.

6. Changes to this Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use, the functionality of the Platform, or applicable law. The current version will be published on BizIndex.ai together with the date of the latest update.
