Cookie Policy

This page lists every cookie and storage value we use, grouped by category. For the consent mechanism and your GDPR rights, see the privacy policy.

Last updated:

In short

  • Before accept: only 3 local-storage values — your consent choice and the map opt-in for the Contact page. Zero third-party cookies.
  • After accept: Google Analytics 4 + Microsoft Clarity (anonymised session replay).
  • On the Contact page: Google Maps loads ONLY on a separate click on "Load interactive map".

Strictly necessary (always active)

These values are set at browser level (localStorage / sessionStorage), are NOT transmitted to any server, and are required for the consent mechanism and the Contact page to work.
