Cookie Policy
Last updated and effective: November 3, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Pigeon-Tech Inc. ("Pigeon-Tech", "we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on pigeon-tech.com, and how you can control them. We don't use advertising cookies. When Microsoft Clarity runs, Microsoft may set its own identifiers, which are listed below.
You can change or withdraw your cookie choice at any time.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Websites also use similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage. In this policy, "cookies" covers both. Some cookies are needed for a website to work; others help the website owner understand how the site is used.
Your choice
Visitors in Europe, the UK and Switzerland
If your browser or location indicates Europe, the UK or Switzerland, we ask first, with a short banner. Until you accept, we use only essential cookies: the tracking scripts of Microsoft Clarity and our email system don't load, and Google Analytics receives only limited measurement signals that don't use cookies.
Visitors elsewhere
We use the cookies listed below. You can say no at any time with the "Change my cookie choice" button on this page.
If you choose "No thanks", Clarity and our email system stop loading and Google Analytics switches to cookie-free measurement, and we remove the analytics and email cookies set on pigeon-tech.com. Cookies that Microsoft set on its own domains (clarity.ms, bing.com) can only be removed in your browser settings. We remember your choice for 12 months, then ask again.
