Cookie policy

Last updated: September 27, 2026

A cookie is a small file stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies may also be used (localStorage, technical identifiers).

2. Our approach #

ARCKONE SRL takes a minimalist approach. Cookie-free, self-⁠hosted OpenPanel audience measurement is always on. Google Ads / ChatGPT Ads measurement stays disabled until you consent.

3. Strictly necessary cookies #

The website places only one strictly necessary cookie: the language preference described below, and only when you choose a language yourself. It places none during normal browsing or when you submit the contact form.

Cloudflare may still apply technical network-level security mechanisms if a request is considered abusive or suspicious. These mechanisms are used for service security and are not used for advertising or individual tracking.

When you explicitly choose a language with one of the website’s language switchers, the website places one strictly necessary preference cookie. It is not used for advertising or tracking.

ark-⁠locale	Remember the language you chose	12 months	Strictly necessary

4. Audience measurement #

This website uses OpenPanel, self-⁠hosted by ARCKONE on OVHcloud infrastructure located in France, to measure traffic and aggregated interactions. OpenPanel places no audience measurement cookie and stores no persistent identifier in localStorage or sessionStorage. According to OpenPanel’s documented standard operation, the raw IP address is not retained in events: it is processed to derive an approximate country and city and, together with browser information and the project identifier, to create a derived visitor identifier that changes daily. The statistics are therefore pseudonymised, rather than described as anonymous. This measurement is limited to website statistics, relies on ARCKONE’s legitimate interest and is used neither for advertising nor for cross-⁠site tracking. Recorded page addresses are limited to the website’s public pages and campaign parameters (utm). No session recording is performed.

Self-⁠hosted OpenPanel	Audience statistics and aggregated interactions	None	ARCKONE SRL, OVHcloud infrastructure in France

OpenPanel measurement is active for every visitor because it places no audience measurement cookie and is used only for website statistics. You can object to it by writing to ARCKONE. The corresponding processing is described in the Privacy policy.

5. Marketing cookies #

With your consent, Google Ads may place or read cookies and advertising identifiers to attribute a genuinely submitted enquiry to a campaign. The website defaults ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization and analytics_storage to denied. It does not send Google the form content, email address or telephone number, and enhanced conversions are disabled.

Also with your consent, when a visit starts with a click on an ARCKONE ad shown in ChatGPT, the click identifier provided by OpenAI is kept in your browser for the session (sessionStorage). If you then submit the contact form, it is sent server-side to OpenAI so the enquiry is counted as a result of the ad. No cookie is placed and no OpenAI script is loaded. The details are in the Privacy policy.

Tool	Purpose	Activation	Provider
Google Ads	Attribute a submitted enquiry to a campaign	Explicit consent	Google Ireland Limited
ChatGPT Ads	Attribute a submitted enquiry to an ad, without cookies	Explicit consent	OpenAI Ireland Ltd / OpenAI, L.L.C.

6. Managing your cookies #

Your advertising measurement choice is retained for no more than 180 days. You can change them or withdraw consent at any time through the “Manage cookies” link in the website footer, which reopens the consent panel, or delete cookies through your browser settings. A Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal activates refusal of advertising measurement.
