2. Google technologies used only on the public website and selected advertising landing pages

Google analytics or advertising technologies are not part of the default cookie stack across the whole Brain-Shot Academy platform.

Where used, they appear only:

  • on the public website and selected advertising landing pages
  • while the relevant tags are active
  • after consent where required by applicable law

Google Tag Manager or the Google tag can be used as the deployment layer for these technologies, but whether cookies or local storage are actually set depends on the active tags and configuration.

3. Notes about this inventory

  • Most current Brain-Shot Academy websites and web apps use Supabase authentication cookies for sign-in continuity across relevant services. The legacy campus at campus.brain-shot.ch uses a separate authentication environment managed by EvolMind.
  • Some Google advertising cookies may be first-party on the visited site, while others may be set from Google or DoubleClick domains, depending on the product and configuration.
  • Provider-controlled durations can vary based on browser limits, provider settings, and campaign configuration.
  • If the public-site tag stack changes, this inventory may be updated accordingly.
