Cookie Policy — vinterstrom.com
Skeleton policy. Final list of cookies will be confirmed when the site is built. The site uses Google Analytics 4 with Consent Mode v2 — analytics cookies are set only after you accept the analytics category in the consent banner.
What is a cookie
A cookie is a small text file stored by your browser. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by the site you visit) or "third-party" (set by another domain, often via embedded content).

The _ga / _ga_* cookies are set only if you accept the analytics category in the consent banner. With consent declined, GA4 runs in cookieless aggregated mode (Consent Mode v2 default-deny) and these cookies are not written.
We do not use:
- Behavioural / advertising cookies
- Cross-site tracking pixels (no Meta Pixel, no LinkedIn Insight Tag, no third-party ad networks)
How to control cookies
You can clear and block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may break parts of the site (e.g. Cloudflare protection).
