Questions ## 01 What this site stores# Cookies and similar browser storage (local storage) are small items saved on your device. This site uses them in the two groups below, and in no others. ## 02 Essential# - **Region choice** (dt_geo): the city or country you selected, so that rates and tasks are shown for the right place. - **Consent choice** (dt_consent): your answer on the cookie banner, kept for up to 12 months. - **Saved tasks and audience** (dt_saved, dt_aud): the tasks you saved and whether you browse as a professional or a company. - **Form drafts** (dt_outbox): a form you submitted while offline, kept until it can be sent. - **Visit source** (dt_attr, session storage): the page you landed on and where you came from, attached to a form you submit so that we can reply in context. It is deleted when you close the tab. These are needed to provide the service you asked for and do not need consent. ## 03 Analytics and chat# We use Google Analytics to count page visits and measure which pages help people find tasks. The data is aggregated and not used for advertising. We also use the Tawk.to live-chat widget so you can message us from any page; Tawk.to may set its own cookies to remember your conversation. Both load on every visit and are not switched off by the banner; to block them, use your browser settings or a content blocker. ## 04 Advertising# We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting or social media pixels. ## 05 Changing your choice# Use the **Cookie choices** link in the page footer to reopen the banner and change your choice at any time. You can also delete the items above in your browser settings; the site will ask you again. ## 06 Browser signals# If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a rejection of optional storage and do not show the banner. It does not switch off Google Analytics or the chat widget. ## 07 Questions# Write to [privacy@deftridge.com](mailto:privacy@deftridge.com).
