We use various types of cookies, specifying identifiers and analytics solutions on OP Financial Group’s website and in applications. With your cookie settings, you can influence the purposes for which we can utilise the data we have collected.
Note that some cookies are necessary for the reliable and secure operation of our websites. In other respects, you can choose the data we may collect and the purposes for which we can use them. For example, we do not utilise the data for targeting and marketing without your consent.
Your cookie settings are saved in your browser.
On this page, we also explain how cookies work, the tools we use, and how your privacy is protected.
How do cookies work?
Cookies are small text files that are stored in your device’s browser. They show us the type of device with which you are using OP eServices and whether you have visited our websites earlier.
If you use a variety of browsers, they may have their own browser settings. If several persons use the same device and browser, the cookie choices made by a single user will also apply to other users, unless the cookies are deleted from the browser after use.
If you have only allowed necessary cookies, we will ask your consent again after six (6) months. Your other cookie settings will remain in force for 12 months.
If you remove cookies from the browser, we will ask your consent again the next time you visit our website.
Disabling cookies
Deleting cookie history
You can clear the cookie history from your browser’s settings to delete all previous cookies saved by the browser. Deleting cookie history does not prevent the formation of new cookie data. For this, you must cancel your cookie consent on OP’s website.
Disabling the use of previous targeting data
If you have previously allowed targeting cookies, your new cookie settings will not immediately remove old cookie data. You may see targeted marketing on our partners’ websites for 60 days after you have cancelled your consent.
Disabling third-party web advertising
If you have previously disabled third party cookies, advertisers and advertisement networks will target advertising to you, based on browser-based behavioural data previously collected from OP Financial Group’s pages.
You can prevent web advertising from outside OP that is based on previously disclosed data, either completely or specific to the company.

What tools are we using and how long is the data retained?
We use both session and persistent cookies. Tools can set several cookies with different retention times. We indicate the maximum cookie retention time for each tool.
- Session cookies exist only during a single session, or visit. They are deleted automatically when you close the browser. With session cookies, you can move from one page to another, log into the service and use different types of calculators and on-line forms, for instance.
- Persistent cookies remain on your browser or device for a fixed period, also after the session, unless you delete them from the browser settings. We use persistent cookies to improve the user experience. With persistent cookies, the website identifies your device and remembers your settings, such as language choice, when you visit the website again.
