01What is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your browser by the website you visit. Related technologies such as localStorage store small values in your browser the same way. Both are used to remember preferences, ensure security or analyse site behaviour.
02Strictly Necessary Storage
These are required for the site to work. They are set without consent because the site cannot function correctly without them.
- orchesta-consent
- localStorage entry that records your cookie-consent choice (granted / denied), so the banner is not shown on every visit. Persistent until you clear browser storage.
- NEXT_LOCALE
- A technical cookie set by the site framework to record the active locale. Strictly necessary, ~1 year. Read only by this site.
03Analytics Cookies (Consent Required)
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used. Analytics cookies are set only after you accept the consent banner. Until then, all analytics storage is denied (Google Consent Mode v2, default-denied).
- _ga
- Google Analytics — distinguishes unique users. Persistent, ~2 years. Set only after consent.
- _ga_*
- Google Analytics — persists session state. Persistent, ~2 years. Set only after consent.
Analytics is anonymised (IP anonymisation enabled). We do not use advertising, retargeting or profiling cookies.
04Manage Your Choice
To withdraw or change analytics consent, clear the orchesta-consent entry in your browser storage — the consent banner will reappear on your next visit, and you can choose again.
You can also delete or block cookies entirely in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary storage may break some site features.
05Changes
This Cookie Policy will be updated as the technologies we use change. The current version is always on this page.
