Cookie and Browser Storage Policy
Cookie and Browser Storage Policy
Effective from: 2026-09-11
1. Main principle
Necessary technologies are used for functions explicitly requested by the user, sign-in and security. Non-essential analytics may be enabled only after valid prior consent. Browsing, scrolling or closing a notice is not consent by itself.
2. Technologies used
| Measure | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sign-in cookie | Necessary | Secure sign-in to the customer system and maintenance of sign-in status | While the sign-in session remains valid |
| Shopping-cart browser storage | Necessary | Keeping the contents and state of the shopping cart | Browser session; also cleared after about 10 minutes of inactivity |
| In-progress purchase browser storage | Necessary | Continuing and completing a purchase already started | Browser session or until the purchase process ends |
| Cookie-preference record | Necessary | Storing the user's choice about optional analytics | Until the choice is changed or the record expires |
| Online-shop visit cookie | Analytics | Aggregate counting of online-shop visits | Browser session |
The analytics cookie is created and used only after the user expressly accepts analytics. Rejecting optional cookies does not prevent the cart, purchase process or sign-in from working.
Stripe may use technologies necessary for payment, security and fraud prevention on the payment page it operates, under its own privacy and cookie rules.
3. Consent management
The first choice screen provides equally easy actions:
- Accept analytics
- Reject optional
- Settings
Analytics is off by default and starts only after the user chooses Accept analytics.
A persistent Cookie settings link is available so the user can easily change or withdraw the choice. After withdrawal, new analytics collection stops and the analytics cookie is removed without affecting necessary sign-in or purchase functions.
ProHiver currently does not use advertising-tracking technologies.
