📣 Advertising measurement cookies (optional)
We advertise on Google to make CoParent.ch known. The Google Ads tag (gtag.js) on the public pages tells us whether a visit or a sign-up follows one of our ads. It is loaded in consent mode: until you accept, Google sets no cookie and receives only technical signals without any identifier. If you accept, the cookies below are set by Google Ireland Ltd., which then acts as a controller for its own advertising purposes. Learn more: how Google uses data.
