Cookie policy
This site sets very little. There is no advertising network beyond a single Meta Pixel that stays off until you say otherwise, and no session-recording script watching where the mouse goes.
Where "cookies" appears below it includes the equivalent — localStorage and similar browser storage. The consent record itself is stored in localStorage under the key alfaprotek.cookie-consent.v1.
Categories
1. Necessary — always on
Required for the site and the account to work. No consent needed, no tracking value.
| Name | Purpose | Type / duration |
|---|---|---|
alfaprotek.cookie-consent.v1 | Remembers your consent choice so the banner doesn't reappear. | localStorage, until cleared |
session | Keeps you signed in to your account and archive. | Cookie, session |
csrf | Protects forms from cross-site submission. | Cookie, session |
__stripe_* style processor cookies | Fraud checks during checkout. | Cookie, up to 1 year |
2. Analytics — off until accepted
Aggregate page counts and referrers. Used to see which pages people actually read. Anonymous: no cross-site profile is built.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
_ap_sess | Distinguishes one visit from the next. | 30 minutes |
_ap_ref | Records the referring source of a first visit. | 14 months |
3. Marketing — off until accepted
One third-party tag: the Meta Pixel. If accepted it lets Meta measure which ads led to page views and checkouts, and build advertising audiences from visitors. Meta may match the visit to a Facebook or Instagram account. If you also use those platforms, Meta's own privacy policy governs its side.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
_fbp | Meta browser identifier for ad measurement. | 90 days |
_fbc | Stores the click identifier when you arrive from a Meta ad. | 90 days |
fr | Meta advertising cookie. | 90 days |
Until marketing consent is given, the Pixel script is not even loaded — no request is made to connect.facebook.net, so nothing is transmitted.
Changing your choice
The banner offers Accept all, Reject non-essential and Manage. Manage lets you switch analytics and marketing independently. Your choice is remembered for twelve months, after which the banner asks again.
To change it now, use in this page or in the footer of any page. Withdrawing marketing consent stops future Pixel events; cookies already set can be cleared in your browser.
Blocking in the browser
Every major browser can block or delete cookies: Chrome and Edge under Settings → Privacy, Firefox under Settings → Privacy & Security, Safari under Settings → Privacy. Blocking necessary cookies will sign you out and can break the checkout form.
Do Not Track is respected informally: if your browser sends it, the analytics tag stays quiet even where consent was given.
