Cookie policy

Orbyte uses cookies and similar technologies to support the website technically and provide certain features.

This cookie policy explains what cookies are, which external services our website uses and how you can manage cookies.

This policy applies to https://orbyte.design/, a Moonworks web platform.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files a website can store on your computer, smartphone or tablet when you visit.

They can help a website function correctly, remember settings or collect information about how the website is used.

Alongside cookies, websites may use similar technologies such as local storage and session storage in your browser.

We distinguish between session cookies, which generally disappear when you close your browser, and persistent cookies, which remain for a defined period.

2. Who is responsible?

Data controller: Moonworks
Address: Mereldreef 26, 3140 Keerbergen, Belgium
Company number: BE0589.947.763
Email: info@moonworks.be
Website: https://orbyte.design/

Moonworks is responsible for cookie and tracking technologies for which it determines the purposes and means of processing.

3. Which types of cookies do we use?

Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies and similar technologies support essential website functions such as security, session management and technical operation.

These technologies do not require prior consent when they are genuinely strictly necessary.

Analytics cookies

Orbyte uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the website.

This may involve processing data about pages visited, interactions, devices and other technical usage characteristics.

Analytics cookies and similar non-essential tracking technologies require prior consent.

Cookies and storage for external features

Our website uses Social Intents for online chat.

This service may use cookies or other browser storage to enable conversations technically, remember settings or support chat.

Whether prior consent is required depends on the nature and purpose of the technology used. Non-essential tracking must not be activated before valid consent has been obtained.

4. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to analyse website usage and improve the website.

Depending on its configuration, Google Analytics may use cookies and other identifiers to record visits, interactions and usage statistics.

Analytics cookies and similar non-essential technologies may only be used after valid prior consent.

The specific Google Analytics cookies, retention periods and settings will be included in the technical cookie inventory once verified.

More information: https://policies.google.com/privacy

5. Google Tag Manager

Google Tag Manager is used to manage scripts and external features on the website.

Google Tag Manager is not itself a separate analytics or advertising system.

Scripts loaded through Google Tag Manager may nevertheless process personal data or use cookies and similar technologies.

Individual tags must therefore be assessed for their purpose and any consent requirements.

6. Social Intents

Orbyte uses Social Intents for online chat.

When you use the chat, technical session data and information you provide during the conversation may be processed.

Depending on the settings used, Social Intents may use cookies or similar technologies.

The specific browser storage, purposes and expiry periods still need checking.

More information: https://www.socialintents.com/privacy.html

7. Overview of cookies and similar technologies

Based on the confirmed services, we distinguish the following categories:

Technical website features

Provider: Orbyte and the relevant technical service providers.
Purpose: technical operation, session management and security.
Consent: not required for strictly necessary technologies.

Website analytics

Provider: Google Analytics.
Purpose: collecting usage statistics.
Consent: required for analytics cookies and other non-essential tracking technologies.

Online chat

Provider: Social Intents.
Purpose: online communication and support for chat sessions.
Consent: depends on the specific technology and whether it is necessary.

A complete technical cookie inventory must also state the name, provider, purpose and retention period of each cookie or storage technology actually used.

Exact names, expiry periods and consent categories can only be finalised after checking the active website and scripts used.

8. Consent to cookies

Strictly necessary cookies do not require prior consent.

Valid prior consent must be obtained for cookies and similar technologies that are not strictly necessary, including analytics cookies.

This means visitors must be able to make a free, informed and active choice and refuse non-essential technologies.

The technical implementation of the consent mechanism on orbyte.design still needs verification. Until that check has been completed, this policy cannot confirm that all non-essential scripts are actually blocked beforehand.

9. Managing your cookie preferences

You must be able to withdraw or change previously given consent for non-essential cookies easily.

Whether the website currently offers a working function for this still needs technical confirmation.

You can also delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that this may affect certain website features.

Deleting cookies in your browser does not in itself prevent cookies from being set again on a later visit.

10. How long are cookies kept?

Cookies can have different retention periods.

Session cookies are generally removed when you end your browser session. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them.

The period must be proportionate to the cookie’s purpose.

The intended retention periods for contact details, chat conversations and server logs in our privacy policy do not automatically match cookie expiry periods.

Those expiry periods are determined separately based on the actual website configuration.

11. External providers and international data processing

We work with external service providers for Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Social Intents.

Depending on the services and settings, personal data may be processed outside the European Economic Area.

International transfers of personal data must comply with applicable legal conditions and safeguards.

You can find more information about personal data processing in our privacy policy.

12. Your rights

When personal data is processed through cookies, you can exercise your rights under the conditions of the GDPR.

You can request access, correction or deletion of your personal data, object to certain processing and withdraw consent where processing is based on it.

For questions about cookies or how your personal data is processed, contact info@moonworks.be.

You can also lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority through https://www.gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit.be/.

13. Changes to this cookie policy

We may update this cookie policy when the technologies used, technical configuration or applicable legislation change.

For significant changes in the use of non-essential cookies, we assess whether consent must be requested again.

The latest version is available on this page, with the date and version number.
