Cookie policy

The site uses one necessary session cookie on the contact page and optional Google services only when you choose to allow them.

Effective date: 15 October 2026

What this website uses

We audited the public website code before publishing this policy. The contact form uses a strictly necessary PHP session cookie for form security and rate limiting. The home page uses session storage in your browser to avoid repeatedly requesting the same public widget data during a tab session.

The site also includes Google Ads measurement and an embedded Google Map. These optional Google services are blocked until you allow optional cookies or actively choose to load the map.

Technology	Purpose	Type and duration
`pmc_session`	Protects the contact form, keeps its security token available and limits repeated submissions.	Strictly necessary. Removed when the browser session ends.
`pmc_cookie_consent`	Remembers whether you chose necessary only or allowed optional services.	Local storage, not a cookie. Remains until cleared or changed.
`pmc-widget:*`	Temporarily caches public home-page widget responses so the page does not request them again during the same tab session.	Session storage, not a cookie. Cleared when the tab session ends.
`_gcl_*` and related Google identifiers	Measures visits and actions connected with Google advertising after consent.	Optional advertising storage. Duration is controlled by Google and your browser settings.
Google Maps storage	Displays the interactive location map after consent or after you press Load map.	Optional third-party storage controlled by Google.

Strictly necessary storage

The contact-page session cookie is required to validate the form submission and reduce automated misuse. It is marked HttpOnly and SameSite=Lax, and Secure when the website is served over HTTPS. Because this cookie supports a service you request, it cannot be switched off through our preference control.

You can block it in your browser, but the contact form may not work. You can still contact us by phone, email or WhatsApp.

Optional Google services

If you choose Allow optional, the site loads the Google tag for advertising measurement. Google may receive the page URL, referral information, browser and device information, IP address, ad-click identifiers and cookie identifiers. Google may read or write advertising cookies such as _gcl_*.

The contact page also offers Google Maps. The map stays blocked until optional services are allowed or you press Load map. Loading it connects your browser to Google and may allow Google to use cookies or similar storage under its own terms.

Learn more in Google's advertising information and Google's privacy policy.

Manage your choice

You can change your website preference at any time. Choosing necessary only prevents optional Google services from loading on your next page view. You may also clear cookies and site data using your browser controls.

Browser controls

Most browsers let you view, delete and block cookies or site storage. Blocking all storage can affect form security, saved preferences and embedded services. Browser help pages explain the controls available for your device.

Changes and contact

We will update this policy if the website starts using new cookies, storage or service providers. The effective date at the top identifies the current version.
