Cookie Policy
Effective date: October 23, 2026
This policy explains cookies and similar browser storage on advtechinc.com and what the website's analytics controls do. Read it alongside our Privacy Policy.
What cookies and browser storage are used?
Cookies are small values stored by your browser. Local storage is another way a website can remember a preference on your device. The analytics choice below uses local storage, while the optional comment-details feature uses cookies.
| Storage | Purpose and trigger | Duration |
|---|---|---|
atvi_cookie_consentFirst-party local storage | Remembers the analytics choice you explicitly save through Accept, Reject or Settings. | The choice is valid for 180 days after it is saved. Reading it does not renew that period. The stored record may remain until replaced or cleared. |
atvi_comment_author, atvi_comment_email, atvi_comment_urlFirst-party cookies | Remember your comment details on the comment page, only after a successful comment submission with the separate save-details checkbox selected. | Up to one year, unless removed earlier through browser controls or by unchecking the save-details checkbox on the comment form. |
_ga and _ga_*Google Analytics first-party cookies | Distinguish visitors and sessions for website measurement. The website loads Google Analytics only after a positive analytics choice. | Google documents a default of two years. Actual duration can vary with browser limits and Google settings. |
See Google's explanation of Analytics cookies for its default storage behavior.
How do Accept, Reject and Settings work?
Accept allows optional Google Analytics. Reject keeps it off. Settings lets you save a choice using the Allow analytics checkbox. The choice can be reopened through Cookie settings in the footer on any page.
A missing, expired, invalid or unreadable preference keeps analytics off. After 180 days, the website asks you to choose again. If the browser refuses to save a choice, the page displays a warning and a retry control instead of claiming the choice was remembered. When an earlier saved acceptance cannot be cleared or checked, the warning explains that it could apply again on a later page.
Changing your choice to Reject or saving analytics off stops future activity from the website's Google Analytics integration and attempts to remove its known first-party Analytics cookies. It does not undo information already sent or remove every third-party cookie or record.
What is separate from the analytics choice?
Cloudflare handles website delivery and form-abuse protection. Its security services process browser and request signals; any provider-managed security storage is separate from optional analytics and follows the provider's settings and policies.
Google Maps and Elfsight review components may load independently on pages that contain them. Their providers can receive request information and may use their own cookies or storage. Rejecting analytics does not block these components or all requests to third-party services.
The comment-details checkbox is also separate. Rejecting analytics does not erase comment details you previously chose to remember. Browser settings can remove those cookies.
Provider information: Cloudflare, Google and Elfsight. Their storage can vary by service, browser settings and any existing provider session.
How can you manage storage in your browser?
Your browser settings let you inspect, block or delete cookies and website data. Removing this website's stored preference makes the analytics choice appear again. Blocking storage may prevent the website from remembering your choice, and restricting provider storage or scripts may affect maps, reviews or verification.
If JavaScript is disabled, the website's analytics loader and interactive preference controls do not run. The policy pages and their footer links remain available.
These settings apply to website analytics and browser storage. To opt out of marketing messages, follow the separate contact instructions in our Privacy Policy.
