Privacy and cookies

Your choice

Google Analytics 4 is loaded only after you explicitly accept audience measurement. Before acceptance, or when you refuse, this website makes no Analytics requests to Google and sets no Analytics cookies. Refusing does not affect access to the website.

You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using Cookie preferences in the footer or below. Withdrawal disables future collection, removes this site’s accessible Analytics cookies and reloads the page. Data already sent with your permission is not erased by this action.

What is measured

With your permission, page visits are sent to Google Analytics with the page’s published path and a generic ALVORNE title. Query parameters, URL fragments and referring URLs are excluded from these events. We do not send contact details, form contents, user identities or contact-click events. Google Analytics can also generate technical session and engagement information after acceptance. Google receives technical request information such as the IP address and browser information when the connection is made.

Advertising consent remains denied. Google Signals, advertising personalization and enhanced measurement are disabled for this integration.

Cookies and storage

Your accepted or refused choice is saved on this browser in local storage for up to 180 days, then requested again. If storage is unavailable, the choice lasts only for the page session. After acceptance, Google Analytics may set _ga and _ga_* cookies to distinguish visits and sessions. This integration limits their lifetime to 180 days without extending it on each visit. Browser settings may shorten or prevent this storage.

Cookie lifetime and retention of data in the Analytics property are different settings. The property’s retention configuration is being confirmed; no additional retention period is asserted here.
