What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser or on your device when you visit a website. They may, for example, be used to remember that you are logged in, save your preferences, or collect information about how the website is used.
We may also use similar technologies, such as local storage and pixels, which can store or read information on your device. In this policy, we use the term cookies as a collective term for cookies and similar technologies.
What types of cookies do we use?
Necessary cookies
Necessary cookies are required for the website and the services you explicitly use to function securely and reliably. They may, for example, be used for:
- security and authentication;
- login and access to protected pages;
- page navigation and technical operation;
- load balancing;
- remembering your cookie preference selections.
Necessary cookies cannot be deselected through our cookie settings. If you block them in your browser, parts of the website may stop working.
Functional cookies
Functional cookies allow the website to remember the choices you make and provide enhanced features. These may include language, region, display preferences, or embedded content.
Functional cookies are used only if you consent to them.
Statistics and analytics cookies
Statistics and analytics cookies help us understand how the website is used. The information may, for example, show which pages are visited, which links are used, and how visitors move between different parts of the website. We use this information to develop and improve our digital services and content.
Statistics and analytics cookies are used only if you consent to them.
Marketing cookies
Marketing cookies are used to measure the effectiveness of our communications and campaigns. They may also be used to create audiences and display more relevant communications and advertising on Södra’s websites and digital services or those of other organisations.
These cookies may be set by Södra or our marketing partners. Marketing cookies are used only if you consent to them.
Your consent
When you visit the website, you can choose one of the following options:
- Accept all: you consent to all optional categories.
- Necessary cookies only: no functional, statistics, or marketing cookies are used.
- Customise settings: you select separately which categories you consent to.
Necessary cookies are used without consent when they are required for the website’s technical functionality or to provide a service you have explicitly requested. For all other cookies, we obtain your consent before they are used.
If you do not make a selection, only necessary cookies may be used. Functional, statistics, and marketing cookies must be disabled by default.
Change or withdraw your consent
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by opening Cookie settings via the icon or link on the website.
When you withdraw your consent, we stop using the cookies and technologies covered by the withdrawal. The withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
You can also delete or block cookies through your browser settings. If you block necessary cookies, some website features may stop working correctly.
