This Cookie Policy supplements our Privacy Policy (available at /privacy-policy/), which describes how we handle personal data more broadly. Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We also use comparable technologies such as pixel tags and server-side event signals where applicable. Together, these tools help the website function reliably, measure performance, and (if you choose) support advertising attribution.
The gelakeatm website supports a Decorative Ceramic Home Decor Course focused on handmade ceramic vases and interior decoration pieces. Cookies help us deliver the pages you request, keep your cookie preferences stored, and understand which lessons and course information visitors read most often. Some cookies are strictly necessary. Others require your consent and will not be used unless you opt in through our cookie banner or preferences panel.
1) What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small files placed in your browser when you visit a site. They can be “session” cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which remain for a set period so the site can remember your preferences.
Cookies can also be first-party (set by gelakeatm) or third-party (set by a service provider we use, such as an analytics or advertising partner). In addition to cookies, we may use pixel tags (small snippets that send an event when a page is viewed) and server-side conversion signals (events processed on a server rather than only in the browser). These are controlled by the same consent choices described below.
2) Cookie categories we use
We group cookies into the following categories. The category labels match the choices you can manage in our cookie preferences panel.
Essential cookies (always active)
These cookies are required for the website to function. They support basic features such as session continuity and storing your cookie consent choice. Because they are necessary, they are enabled by default and cannot be switched off in our preferences panel.
Analytics cookies (consent required)
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve navigation and educational content. When enabled, we use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) with IP anonymization settings where supported. We use aggregated reporting (for example, which pages are viewed most) to refine course information and improve clarity. Analytics cookies are not set unless you opt in.
Marketing cookies (consent required)
Marketing cookies are used to measure advertising performance and show relevant course messages to people who have previously visited our site. They may be used to build remarketing audiences and to attribute sign-ups or enquiries to campaigns. We do not activate marketing cookies unless you opt in.
3) Cookie table
The table below lists cookies that may be used on this site. Some are set only if you enable Analytics or Marketing cookies.

4) Third-party providers
If you opt in to Analytics or Marketing cookies, third-party cookies and tags may be set by providers that support those features. We use only the categories you enable in the cookie preferences panel.
- Google LLC (Google Analytics 4 and Google Ads measurement): provides analytics reporting and advertising attribution. You can learn more at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
- Meta Platforms, Inc. (Meta Pixel and conversion measurement): supports advertising measurement and remarketing audiences. You can learn more at https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy.
- Cloudflare (security and content delivery): may process IP addresses and request metadata to protect the site and improve performance. You can learn more at https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/.
We do not permit these providers to use site data for their own independent commercial purposes. They process data as service partners to provide analytics, security, or advertising measurement functions selected by your consent choices.
5) How to manage your cookie preferences
You can change your choices at any time:
- Use the “Manage cookie preferences” link in the site footer to reopen the cookie banner and access the preferences panel.
- Use your browser settings to delete existing cookies and block cookies in the future. Note that blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the website from working correctly.
- Optional tools and settings provided by third parties:
If you reject non-essential cookies, analytics and marketing features will remain disabled. Essential cookies will continue to run so the site can function and remember your consent status.
6) Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or how the gelakeatm website operates. If we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page and may provide a notice on the website.
