How we use cookies
On this page, we provide you with information about what cookies are, what cookies we use, how long cookies are stored and for what purposes we use cookies. On this page you can also revoke or amend your consent to our use of cookies which you gave us when you first visited the website.
In order to give you a better and more personalised experience, we and our digital partners use cookies on this site. We do this to customise your user experience, perform analytics, and give you access to all the features of our website. We also use cookies to present personalised advertisements to you in newsletters, social media and on the internet. For this purpose, we collect information about users, browsing behaviour and devices. You can select the purposes for which we can use cookies by customising your settings. However, some cookies are technically necessary for the website to function. When you accept statistical and marketing cookies, some information may be transferred to countries outside the EU. Some of these countries do not meet EU requirements for handling personal data. For example, it may be difficult or impossible to enforce the right to erasure of any personal data. By accepting our use of statistical and marketing cookies, you agree that data may be transferred to countries outside the EU. More information about how we at SkiStar process your personal data can be found in our Privacy Policy.
Cookies are text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a web page. Cookies are used partly to facilitate the use of a website, such as by remembering your choices and preferences, to develop the site and to analyse your behaviour. Some features will not work without cookies. SkiStar may also use various tags, such as various electronic images and scripts that, among other things, allow a web page to count the number of visitors. SkiStar may also allow certain partners to place cookies or tags on the visitor’s web browser when using SkiStar’s web pages. For more information on how we at SkiStar process your personal data, please see our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small amount of data that often has a unique stamp. Cookies are stored on your computer, tablet or smartphone when you visit websites that use cookies. These cookies may then collect information about, for example, which pages you visit, which articles you read or what you purchase. There are also similar techniques that collect information about you as a visitor in a similar way.
There are two types of cookies, permanent and temporary (so-called session cookies). Permanent cookies are stored as a file on your computer for a longer period. Session cookies are temporarily placed on your computer when you visit a website, but disappear when you close the page, which means that they are not stored permanently on your computer. These cookies can be placed by us either directly (so-called first-party cookies) or by other companies (so-called third-party cookies).
The types of cookies we use
Session cookies
For some features on skistar.com or our other websites to function, for example, to ensure that the right web pages are displayed to the right person, our website uses what are known as "session cookies". When you visit our websites, our web servers allocate your computer a unique ID number for that unique visit. These cookies do not have an expiry date and are instead stored temporarily in the user's computer memory until the browser is shut down. Thanks to these cookies you do not need to fill in all your information again every time you hit 'Back' during the booking dialogue, for instance. Session cookies are placed by both us (first-party cookies) and third parties (third-party cookies).
The session cookies we use can be found in the table below. Session cookies are all cookies that have a duration during the current session (see the heading "Stop" in the table above).
Permanent cookies
A persistent cookie has a specified duration, or lifetime, that determines how long it is stored on your computer or mobile device. These cookies are stored until their lifetime expires or until you delete them manually. Permanent cookies are set by both us (first-party cookies) and third parties (third-party cookies).
The permanent cookies we use can be found in the table below. Permanent cookies are all cookies that last longer than one session, e.g. 1 day, 1 month, 1 year, etc. (see under the heading "Expiration" in the table above).
Why we use cookies
On our websites, we use cookies to improve your experience, to gather information for our marketing and to develop the site. A detailed description of the purpose of each specific cookie we use can be found on our website in the table below (see under the heading "Purpose" in the table below).
The overarching purpose of why we use cookies on our website is:
- To improve your user experience (cookies for settings). We use cookies when you are logged into our site so that you do not have to provide your username and password for each page visited, for instance, during the booking process. We also use cookies to remember what text you have entered into search and booking forms, etc., so that you will be able to navigate the website without having to provide this information every time you change page, and, for example, to determine what language this page should appear in for different users. We also use cookies to optimise the speed of our web pages.
- To develop our website (cookies for statistics). We use cookies to compile anonymous, aggregated web statistics that enable us to understand how visitors use our site and help us to improve the structure and content of our website. Where a visitor is logged into our website or makes a booking, information about this is also stored in our cookies.
- To personalise offers and advertising (cookies for marketing)
We use cookies to provide you with personalized offers and advertising on skistar.com and other websites, based on your activity on the website whether you are logged in or not. Such cookies can, for example, be used to select targeted advertising or otherwise tailor the pages you see through advertising and customised content, so-called personalisation. Among other things, we may collect e-mail addresses and IP addresses, device information and browsing behaviour. We also use cookies in competition forms and customer surveys. That way, you as a visitor do not, for instance, have to see the same survey every time you visit the website.
Withdraw or change your consent
When you visit our websites for the first time, you will be encouraged to give your consent to our use of cookies. When you give this consent, you have the opportunity to choose for what purposes we may use cookies: for settings, statistics and/or marketing.
If you should withdraw your consent and want to withdraw your consent or if you want to adjust the purposes for which we may use cookies, you can do so by clicking the button at the top of this page.
Necessary cookies, i.e., cookies necessary for the basic functions of the website to function, cannot be deleted. If you do not want us to use necessary cookies, we ask you to change your settings in your browser in the manner described in Section 5.
Prevent cookies from being placed on your computer
In addition to the possibility of revoking or adjust your consent as described above, you also have the possibility to prevent cookies being stored on your computer by changing the settings in your browser. You can then choose to block all cookies or only specific cookies. You can also delete permanent cookies stored on your device at any time. If you choose not to allow the use of cookies from skistar.com or any of our other websites, it may mean that certain services cannot be used or that not all aspects of the site will work properly.
The procedure for removing or deactivating cookies on your device depends on the browser you use. If you are using a PC, you can delete cookies by using the short command [CTRL] + [SHIFT] + [Delete]. If this procedure does not work or if you are using a Mac computer, please click on the link below that corresponds to the browser you are using:

About the Cookie Policy
This Cookies Policy (the “Policy”) describes how CoinShares International Limited (“CoinShares”, “we”, “our”, us) uses cookies and other tracking devices through www.coinshares.com and etp.coinshares.com (the “Websites”).
This Policy applies when you ("you", "Client", "User", “Visitor”) access, visit, or use any portion of the Websites and has to be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy. For more information regarding how we process your personal data and your rights as a data subject, please see our Privacy Policy.
Your privacy is important to us. As such, we encourage you to read this policy on cookies and other tracking devices to understand how they work and how our company and third parties use them.
We use cookies to personalise the content on the Websites, to provide social media features and analyse traffic. We also share information about your use of our site with our social media, advertising and analytics partners, who may combine it with other information you have provided or collected from your use of their services. Please see our Privacy Policy for further information about how your personal data might be shared.
This Policy allows you to understand how and why we use them so that you can make an informed choice about their use during your browsing.
LEGAL BASIS
When you first visit our Websites, we ask for your consent to the use of cookies for different purposes. You have the option to Allow all cookies, Customize your cookies (i.e. preferences, statistics and/or marketing) or Deny cookies via the cookie settings banner. We do not need your consent to use strictly necessary cookies and we may process personal data collected via strictly necessary cookies based on a legitimate interest, where CoinShares’ interest in maintaining the website overrides the visitor's interest in not having the information processed.
During your browsing, you can always change or withdraw your consent to cookies at any time by changing your cookie preferences through the Cookiebot tool located at the bottom left of the Website.
What are cookies, and why do we use them?
Cookies are small text files which the website you are visiting asks to save on your device. Cookies are stored on the Visitor’s computer, tablet, smartphone or other devices. Cookies then allow us to recognise that device, track your browsing and record helpful information to optimise your visit and ability to access the various features of our Websites.
Cookies can be classified by their lifetime and by the domain to which they belong:
- By legitimacy:
- Necessary: Necessary cookies help make a website usable by enabling essential functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.
- Preferences: Preference cookies enable a website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks, like your preferred language, the type of investor you are or the region that you are in.
- Statistics: Statistic cookies help website owners to understand how visitors interact with their website (i.e. what are the most popular pages on the website).
- Marketing: Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites. The intention is to display ads that are relevant and engaging for the individual user and thereby more valuable for publishers and third-party advertisers.
- Unclassified: Unclassified cookies are cookies that we are in the process of classifying, together with the providers of individual cookies.
- By duration:
- Session cookies: These are cookies that are deleted when the user closes the web browser.
- Persistent cookies: These are cookies that remain stored on the hard disk of the user's terminal for a predefined period.
- By domain:
- First-party cookies: These are cookies deposited by the server of the visited website that shares the same domain.
- Third-party cookies: These are cookies that are deposited by a domain other than that of the website visited. Because of the way they work, we cannot access the data collected by third-party cookies, and in particular, we cannot control all the tracking functions of third-party tools. However, these providers are required to comply with applicable data protection regulations.
We may use different types of cookies.
WHICH TOOLS DO WE USE AND CAN YOU OPT-OUT?
Because of how cookies and similar technologies work, we cannot access data collected by third-party cookies, or persons access the data generated by such tools, and in particular, not all tracking functions of third-party tools can be controlled by us.
All the following providers are obliged to comply with the applicable data protection regulations and are solely responsible for any processing of personal data as a data controller. Some third-party providers act as data processors and as such, CoinShares is responsible for ensuring these providers comply with the above-mentioned regulation.
