Cookie notice

This page explains what cookies and similar storage are, which ones this site uses, and how to accept or refuse them. The choice does not lock you out of reports, rates, or the contact form. Read the privacy notice for how the desk handles personal data.

What cookies are

A cookie is a small text file a site stores on your device. Similar storage, such as localStorage in the browser, can hold a short preference without an expiry date in the same way a cookie does. Both can remember a choice between visits.

What this site uses

The pages themselves are static. The desk does not need a cookie to show a chart-method page or to take a note. We use localStorage to remember whether you accepted or rejected cookies, under the key service-flowcore-cookie-consent. If you accept, we may set a first-party analytics cookie later to count visits in aggregate. If you reject, we do not set that analytics cookie. Rejecting does not hide plates, rates, or the form.

Fonts may be requested from Google Fonts. That request can allow Google to see your IP address and the page you opened. Images may be requested from Unsplash. Those are third-party requests, described below.

The analytics row is unused until you Accept. Essential site functions — reading a page, sending a figure review, opening the telephone link — do not depend on sf_analytics.

How to manage or disable cookies

Use Accept or Reject on the banner. You can also clear cookies and localStorage for service-flowcore.digital in your browser settings, which will show the banner again. Browser controls differ; look for “cookies,” “site data,” or “local storage” for this domain. You may block third-party cookies entirely; the pages still open, though fonts or photographs may fall back more slowly.

Third-party cookies

Google Fonts and Unsplash are not the desk. Their cookies, if set, follow their own notices. We do not control their duration. If you reject analytics and also block third-party cookies, you still have the text of every report page.

If you disable cookies

The banner may return on the next visit. Optional visit counting will not run. You can still request a figure review, read the method, and telephone +995 422 555 547.
