01What are cookies and browser storage?
Cookies are small files saved to your browser by the site you visit and sent to the server with subsequent requests. Browser storage (localStorage, sessionStorage), on the other hand, is data kept only in your browser and not sent to the server automatically.
The cookies on our site fall into three groups: necessary cookies required for the site to work, analytics cookies for visit statistics, and advertising and social media cookies for ad measurement. Non-essential cookies are loaded only with your explicit consent, when you allow them in the cookie panel.
02Necessary cookies
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
ipform | Form security: a security token that blocks forged requests and a submission interval check. Created only when you want to use a form. | First party, necessary | Session cookie. |
PHPSESSID | Admin panel session only; not set for site visitors. | First party, necessary | Session |
These cookies are necessary for the site to operate securely and do not require consent; they are not used for advertising, analytics or profiling. If you block them in your browser settings, forms may not work. Because fonts are loaded from our own server, no request is sent to a font provider.
For visit statistics we also use a cookieless counter on our own server: only the page, the visit source and the device type are counted as daily totals; no cookies or browser storage are used, and no IP address or information that identifies you is stored.
The Google Maps map on the Contact page is loaded only when you press the "Load map" button; in that case Google LLC may set its own cookies, and their durations are determined by Google.
03Analytics cookies
We use Google LLC's Google Analytics 4 service to measure the number of visitors, how often pages are viewed and how the site is used. These cookies are loaded only when you grant the "Analytics" permission.
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
_ga | A random identifier that distinguishes visitors from one another. | First party (Google Analytics), analytics | 2 years |
_ga_<id> | Associating session state and page views. | First party (Google Analytics), analytics | 2 years |
According to Google, Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. You can also use Google's browser add-on to disable Google Analytics on all sites.
05Browser storage
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
ip-consent | Your cookie preferences (which groups you have allowed). | localStorage | 12 months; you are asked again when it expires |
ip-quote | Products you have added to the quote list (product code, name and quantity). | localStorage | Until you delete it |
ip-talk-prefill | Carrying the context you selected on the Solutions page over to the contact form. | sessionStorage | Single use; deleted when the tab is closed |
These storage areas contain no personal data and are not sent to our server unless you submit a request.
06Your preferences
In the cookie panel shown on your first visit to the site, you can accept all non-essential cookies, reject them all, or use "Details" to choose the analytics and the advertising and social media permissions separately. Rejecting them does not prevent you from using the site.
You can change or withdraw your permissions at any time via the "Cookie preferences" link at the bottom of the page; when you withdraw them, the related tools are not loaded from the next page load onward. You can also delete or block cookies and browser storage in your browser settings.
