Cookie Policy
Last updated: 26 October 2026
This cookie policy informs users of the Dragon Tactics website, available at www.dragontactics.com, about the use of cookies and similar tracking technologies when browsing the website.
It supplements the website Privacy Policy.
1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small file that may be stored on the user’s device (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when visiting a website.
Cookies and similar technologies can, in particular, ensure the technical operation of the site, remember certain user choices, or measure site traffic and usage.
2. Site Manager
The Dragon Tactics website is published by:
Dragon Strategies BV
Registered office: Zuidwerflaan 6, 2594 CW The Hague, The Netherlands
Email: info@dragontactics.com
For questions about cookies or personal data protection: info@dragontactics.com.
3. Strictly necessary cookies
The site uses technical cookies necessary for its operation.
These cookies can, in particular, allow:
to ensure the operation and security of the site;
to check that the browser accepts cookies;
to manage the authentication of people authorized to access the WordPress
administration;
to memorize certain technical preferences;
to record the user’s choices regarding the use of cookies.
These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of the site or for the provision of a service requested by the user, therefore they are not subject to prior consent.
4. Audience measurement cookies – Google Analytics 4
Google Analytics 4 (GA4), a website analytics service provided by Google, is planned for the Dragon Tactics website. Once implemented, it may be used to better understand website traffic and usage and, in particular, to measure:
the number of visits and visitors;
pages viewed;
visit duration and navigation patterns;
traffic sources;
interactions with different pages;
general technical information about browsing.
Analytics cookies and trackers requiring consent will be activated only after the visitor has accepted them through the cookie consent interface. Refusing analytics cookies will not prevent access to the website or its essential features. Consent can be changed or withdrawn at any time using the Cookie Settings control.
5. Social networks and external sites
The Dragon Tactics website contains links to external platforms or sites, including LinkedIn, YouTube and Substack.
These elements are offered in the form of external links and not as content or widgets directly integrated into the site.
Simply viewing a page on the Dragon Tactics website containing these links does not, by virtue of their presence alone, result in these platforms placing cookies on the user’s device.
When the user clicks on one of these links, they leave the Dragon Tactics website and access the relevant third-party service. Data processing and any cookies used from that point onward are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of those services.
If Dragon Tactics subsequently integrates videos, publications, or features directly from third- party platforms, this policy will be updated and the necessary consent mechanisms will be adapted.
6. Consent Management
On the first visit to the site, a cookie management tool allows the user to choose the use of cookies and trackers that are not strictly necessary.
The user can:
Accept the relevant cookies;
Refuse the cookies in question;
Personalize your choices.
Cookies and trackers requiring consent, including those associated with Google Analytics 4 in the site configuration, are not activated until the user has given their consent.
Refusing non-essential cookies does not prevent normal browsing of the site.
7. Modification or withdrawal of consent
The user can change their preferences or withdraw their consent at any time.
Permanent access to the “Cookie Management” tool is available from the website.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before this withdrawal.
8. Duration of selection
The user’s choice regarding the acceptance or refusal of cookies is stored for a period in accordance with applicable regulations.
At the end of this period, or when a significant change in the cookies or trackers used requires it, the site may ask the user for their choice again.
Cookies and trackers are themselves stored for a period proportionate to their purpose and according to their technical configuration.
9. List of cookies and trackers used
The table below identifies the WordPress and GA4 cookies contemplated by the website’s technical configuration. WordPress administration cookies are relevant only when the corresponding functionality is used; GA4 cookies are applicable only once GA4 has been deployed with the appropriate consent mechanism. Actual cookies, providers and retention periods must correspond to the deployed configuration.
