Cookies are text files that a web browser saves on your device. The website uses cookies that are necessary for the operation of the website as well as cookies for visitor tracking and quality control.

Non-essential cookies, i.e. visitor tracking and quality control cookies
If you accept the use of cookies, the Raja.fi website’s visitor tracking, Siteimprove, collects general statistical information that is used in online service development and quality control.
This information includes, for instance:
- the website from which the visitor arrived at the website
- pages loaded
- page loading time stamp
- browser and operating system
- the visitor’s internet service provider.
Visitor tracking
The purpose of visitor tracking is not to identify individual visitors and your IP address is not saved as is. The IP address is used to identify the organisation that registered the address and the geographical location. The location data is indicative: its accuracy is good at the country level and moderate at the regional and city/town level.
Quality control
We control the website’s accessibility, usability and quality, such as link functionality.
IP addresses are automatically anonymised and the data collected cannot be linked to an individual.
Siteimprove does not disclose the data. Third parties cannot make use of the cookies or any data that can be linked to them.
NMSTAT

The AWSALB cookie ensures that all the information collected during one visit is stored in the same target, which enables, for example, the tracking of the user path. The cookies expire after one week.

Technical log data on the website and telecommunications connections
Technical log data is collected on the use of the website and the telecommunications connections used to access it. This data is necessary for the provision of the online service and for ensuring information security. The log data includes information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, such as their IP address and timestamp. The log data is only used to enable the provision of the service via the telecommunications network and to investigate any disruptions and information security incidents.
Processing personal data related to the provision of the online service and ensuring information security is necessary for the Finnish Border Guard to comply with the legal obligation to which it as a controller is subject under the General Data Protection Regulation.
