Cookie Policy
Summary in plain language:
- This website currently uses only local storage (not HTTP cookies) to remember your consent preferences.
- One item is stored: your cookie consent choices, kept for 365 days in your browser.
- No analytics, marketing or third-party tracking cookies are used on this website.
- You can change your preferences at any time using the "Cookie settings" button in the footer or by clearing your browser storage.
1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They are sent back to the server with each subsequent request and are commonly used to remember preferences, track sessions or deliver advertising. Cookies may be "first-party" (set by the website you are visiting) or "third-party" (set by a different domain).
Local storage (also called "web storage" or "localStorage") is a browser feature that allows websites to store key-value data on your device. Unlike cookies, local storage data is not sent to the server with each request. It remains in your browser until it is explicitly deleted by the website, by you or by your browser's storage management.
Both cookies and local storage can be used to remember your choices and personalize your experience. This website currently uses local storage only and does not set any HTTP cookies.
2. What This Website Uses
Seideldexa.com uses a single local storage entry to remember your cookie consent preferences. This is the only data stored on your device by this website. We do not use session cookies, persistent cookies, analytics trackers, advertising pixels or any third-party tracking technologies.
The consent mechanism is provided through the cookie banner that appears when you first visit the website. Your choices are stored locally in your browser and are not transmitted to our servers or any third party.
3. Detailed Cookie and Storage Table
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Category | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| sdxa_cookie_consent | Seideldexa (localStorage) | Stores your cookie consent preferences, including which categories you have accepted or rejected. The stored value is a JSON object containing a version identifier, a timestamp, and your consent choices for each category (necessary, functional, analytics, marketing, personalization). | Necessary | 365 days |
The stored JSON object has the following structure: version (v), timestamp (t), and consent choices (c) with boolean values for each category: necessary (always true), functional, analytics, marketing and personalization.
4. Consent Categories Explained
The cookie consent banner on this website presents five categories. Currently, only the "Necessary" category is in active use. The remaining categories are presented for transparency and to support future functionality:
- Necessary: Required for the website to function correctly. This includes the consent preference storage described above. Necessary storage cannot be disabled because the website needs to remember whether you have made a consent choice. No personal data is collected through this category.
- Functional: Used to remember preferences such as language selection or display settings. This category is not currently in use on this website but is available for future functionality. When activated, functional storage will only store preferences you have explicitly set.
- Analytics: Used to understand how visitors interact with the website, such as which pages are visited most frequently. This category is not currently in use. If analytics tools are introduced in the future, this policy will be updated with specific details about the tools, the data collected and the retention period.
- Marketing: Used to deliver relevant content and measure the performance of marketing campaigns. This category is not currently in use and no advertising or marketing technologies are deployed on this website.
- Personalization: Used to tailor content and recommendations to your interests. This category is not currently in use on this website.
5. How to Manage Your Preferences
You can manage your consent preferences at any time through the following methods:
- Cookie settings button: Click the "Cookie settings" button located in the footer of every page on this website. This reopens the consent banner, where you can review and change your choices for each category.
- On first visit: The consent banner appears automatically when you visit the website for the first time (or after clearing your browser storage). You may accept all categories, reject all optional categories or customize your choices.
When you change your preferences, the updated choices take effect immediately and are stored in your browser's local storage for 365 days.
6. Browser-Level Controls
In addition to the consent mechanism on this website, you can control cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to:
- View and delete stored local storage data for specific websites.
- Block all cookies or third-party cookies.
- Clear all browsing data, including local storage, cookies and cached files.
- Set your browser to notify you when cookies are being set.
Please note that clearing your browser's local storage for this website will remove your consent preferences. The consent banner will reappear on your next visit, and you will be asked to make your choices again.
For instructions on managing storage in your specific browser, consult your browser's help documentation.
7. Changes to This Policy
If we introduce new cookies, local storage entries or tracking technologies, this Cookie Policy will be updated accordingly. If a change materially affects how your data is used (for example, the introduction of analytics or marketing cookies), the consent banner will reappear so that you can make an informed choice about the new categories.
