Cookie Policy
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the site owners. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and tracking pixels.
Cookies can be “first-party” (set by the website you are visiting) or “third-party” (set by a service used by the website, such as an analytics provider). They can also be “session” cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (remaining on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
2. How We Use Cookies
The GPSR Compliance Pro website (gpsrprestashop.com) uses cookies for two purposes only:
- Consent management — to remember your cookie preferences via our Consent Management Platform (Usercentrics).
- Analytics — to understand how visitors use our website so we can improve it, via Google Analytics 4 (GA4).
We do not use any advertising, marketing, or social media tracking cookies.
3. Cookie Categories
4. Consent Management
We use Usercentrics as our Consent Management Platform (CMP) to comply with the EU ePrivacy Directive and GDPR. When you first visit our website, the Usercentrics consent banner appears, allowing you to accept or decline non-essential cookies.
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by:
- Clicking the cookie settings icon displayed on the website
- Interacting with the Usercentrics consent banner when it appears
Your consent preferences are stored in the uc_settings cookie and respected across all pages of this website.
5. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to collect anonymized data about how visitors interact with our website. This helps us understand which pages are most useful and how we can improve the user experience.
- IP addresses are anonymized before processing
- No personally identifiable information is collected
- Data is processed by Google in accordance with their Privacy Policy
- Analytics cookies are only set after you provide consent via the Usercentrics banner
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by:
- Declining analytics cookies via the Usercentrics consent banner
- Installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on
6. localStorage
We use the browser’s localStorage mechanism to store your preferred theme (light or dark mode) under the key gpsr-theme. This is technically not a cookie:
- It is never sent to any server with HTTP requests
- It stays entirely on your device
- It contains only the string
lightordark - You can clear it at any time via your browser’s developer tools or site settings
7. How to Control Cookies
You have several ways to manage or block cookies:
Via our consent banner
Use the Usercentrics cookie banner to accept or reject analytics cookies. Your choice is remembered and can be changed at any time by clicking the cookie settings icon on the page.
Via browser settings
All major browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. Here is how to manage cookies in common browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data. You can block third-party cookies, clear existing cookies, or block all cookies.
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. Firefox offers Standard, Strict, and Custom tracking protection levels.
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data. Safari blocks cross-site tracking by default via Intelligent Tracking Prevention.
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data. Edge offers Basic, Balanced, and Strict tracking prevention.
Note: Blocking strictly necessary cookies (such as the consent cookie) may affect the functionality of the consent banner. We recommend using the Usercentrics banner to manage your preferences instead of blocking cookies entirely.
8. Third-party Cookies
Only Google Analytics sets third-party cookies on this website. No other third parties — including advertising networks, social media platforms, or affiliate programs — set cookies through our site.
Google Analytics cookies are only activated after you provide explicit consent through the Usercentrics consent banner.
9. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our cookie usage or for legal, regulatory, or operational reasons. When we make changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
