Overview
GlobalMoldManagement.com uses first-party browser storage (local storage) for analytics and functional purposes. We do not use third-party cookies. We do not use advertising cookies. All storage is on our own domain and is not accessible to other websites.
Storage Classification
| Item | Classification | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
gmm_visitor_id | Analytics | Random anonymous visitor identifier | Until cleared |
gmm_session_id | Analytics | Current session identifier | 30 min inactivity |
gmm_session_last_activity | Analytics | Session timeout tracking | 30 min inactivity |
gmm_first_touch | Analytics | First-visit attribution (landing page, referrer, UTM) | Until cleared |
gmm_consent_state | Strictly Necessary | Records your consent decision | Until cleared |
gmm_consent_timestamp | Strictly Necessary | When consent was given/changed | Until cleared |
SameSite and Secure Behavior
All storage uses the browser's local storage API on the globalmoldmanagement.com origin. Local storage is inherently first-party and same-site. It is not sent with cross-site requests. When the site is served over HTTPS (standard for the published domain), all storage is secure.
What Happens When You Clear Storage
If you clear your browser's local storage or site data:
- Your anonymous visitor ID is removed. On your next visit, a new random ID is generated. You are treated as a new visitor. You are not re-identified.
- Your session ends immediately.
- Your consent state resets to "unknown" and the consent banner will appear again.
- Your first-touch attribution data is removed.
- Previously recorded analytics events remain in our database but are no longer associated with your browser.
Consent Behavior
- Accept — Analytics events are collected and sent to our backend. Events are buffered and sent in batches to minimize impact on page performance.
- Decline — No analytics events are collected. The only storage retained is your consent decision itself.
- Change your mind — Use the "Cookie Settings" link in the site footer to view your current consent state and change it at any time. You can also clear your browser's local storage to reset consent and see the banner again.
No Third-Party Cookies
We do not set third-party cookies. If we add Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager in the future, they will operate in consent mode, respecting your consent decision. See our Privacy Policy for the full data approach.
