Summary
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Our site runs without them. We use one optional category, analytics, provided by HubSpot, and we load it only if you choose “Accept analytics.” We use no advertising, social media or cross-site tracking cookies.
Strictly necessary (always on)
We don’t set any cookies for the site to work. We store one small item in your browser’s local storage (not a cookie) to remember your privacy choice. It never leaves your device.
| Name | Purpose | Stored for |
|---|---|---|
bf_consent_v1 | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics, and when. | Until you clear your browser data |
Analytics (only with your consent)
If you accept, HubSpot’s tracking code loads and sets the cookies below on our domain. They help us understand which pages are useful and link your visit to a quote request if you submit one. HubSpot processes this data for us as a service provider. HubSpot privacy policy.
| Name | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|
__hstc | Main HubSpot analytics cookie. Records visit timestamps and the number of sessions. | 6 months |
hubspotutk | Identifies your browser so a later quote request can be linked to your earlier visits. | 6 months |
__hssc | Counts page views within a session. | 30 minutes |
__hssrc | Detects a browser restart so a new session can begin. | Until you close your browser |
__hs_cookie_cat_pref, __hs_opt_out, __hs_initial_opt_in | Remember your consent choice within HubSpot’s script, if HubSpot sets them. | Up to 6 months |
When the HubSpot code loads, it also contacts these HubSpot domains: hs-scripts.com, hs-analytics.net, hs-banner.com, hscollectedforms.net and hubspot.com. If you don’t accept, none of these are contacted.
Your choices
- Change your mind anytime: use Cookie settings in the footer. If you switch analytics off, we delete the HubSpot cookies and stop loading the code.
- Global Privacy Control: if your browser sends a GPC signal, we treat it as “Reject analytics” automatically.
- Browser controls: you can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The site will still work.
