What are cookies?
A cookie is a small file a website stores in your browser to remember information about your visit: for example, keeping a session or knowing which pages are visited. The browser's local storage (localStorage) works in a similar way, so we explain it here too.
Which cookies does this site use?
We use two kinds: technical ones, essential for the site to work and exempt from consent, and analytics ones, which are only set if you accept them.
| Name | Type and purpose | Owner | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
mdc21-agency-session |
Technical. Keeps your session while you browse (needed to send the contact form). | MDC21 | 2 hours |
XSRF-TOKEN |
Technical. Protects the forms against forged submissions (CSRF). | MDC21 | 2 hours |
mdc21-consent (local storage) |
Technical. Remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics, so we don't ask on every page. | MDC21 | 12 months |
_ga, _ga_<ID> |
Analytics (Google Analytics 4), only with your consent. They tell visits apart to measure, in aggregate, how the site is used. Never used for advertising or profiling. | Google Ireland Ltd | Up to 2 years (Chrome caps them at 400 days) |
Google Analytics
Until you click "Accept", the site does not load Google Analytics and sends no data to Google. If you accept, Google Ireland Ltd processes browsing data as explained in the privacy policy, with a possible transfer to Google LLC (USA) covered by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. More in Google's explanation (opens in a new tab).
We use no advertising or social-media cookies, and the site's fonts are served from our own server.
Managing or withdrawing your consent
On your first visit you'll see a notice with two equally weighted buttons, "Accept" and "Reject". You can change your mind at any time from the "Cookie settings" link in the footer: if you withdraw consent, we delete the _ga cookies and Google Analytics stops loading. After 12 months we'll ask again.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; if you block the technical ones, the contact form may not work.
