Cookie Policy
Last updated: 3 June 2026
This policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use on Northengine and how you can control them. We only use cookies that are required for the service to work, plus optional analytics cookies that you choose to allow.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They let the site remember your choices and work as intended. We also use similar technologies, such as localStorage, to save your preferences in the browser.
2. How we ask for your consent
The first time you visit Northengine, a cookie banner appears where you can choose "Accept all" or "Only necessary". Necessary cookies are always set because the site cannot function without them. Analytics cookies are only set if you allow them. Your choice is saved and you can change it at any time by clearing cookies in your browser.
3. Necessary cookies
These are required for core functions such as login, session handling, security and secure payment. They cannot be turned off, as the service would not work without them. They are never used for marketing.
4. Analytics cookies (optional)
With your consent, we use anonymized analytics to understand how the platform is used so we can improve it. These cookies do not collect data that directly identifies you and are not shared with third parties for marketing.
5. Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by trusted providers we use to run the service, primarily Stripe for secure payment and fraud prevention. These providers have their own privacy and cookie policies.
6. How to manage cookies
You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings. Note that blocking necessary cookies may cause parts of the service to stop working. Read more about how we process personal data in our privacy policy. Northengine is a trademark belonging to Leo Svenell, sole proprietorship.
