This Cookie & Storage Policy explains how Stackvel Solutions utilizes cookies and modern browser storage technologies (such as localStorage and session tokens) on us.stackvelsolutions.com. We operate with a strict privacy-first architecture designed to eliminate unnecessary surveillance.
1. Our Storage Philosophy
Most modern websites load dozens of third-party trackers, pixels, and fingerprinting scripts that slow down page rendering and compromise user privacy. At Stackvel Solutions, we do not engage in behavioral advertising, third-party remarketing, or cross-site profiling. We use local browser storage strictly for essential security, motion accessibility, and consent persistence.
Lightweight & Respectful: Our entire website functions without loading external tracking scripts or advertising SDKs. When you visit our website, you are not being monitored across the internet.
2. Types of Storage Technologies Used
We utilize two distinct forms of browser storage:
- HTTP Session Cookies: Small strings of text sent between our server and your browser during active sessions. These cookies are marked with
SameSite=Strict,Secure, andHttpOnlyflags to prevent cross-site interception. - Local Storage (localStorage): Client-side storage within your browser that persists your user interface preferences (such as cookie banner choices and reduced motion toggles) across visits without transmitting data to our server on every HTTP request.
3. Exact Storage Inventory
Below is the complete, comprehensive list of technical storage keys used on this website:
-
PHPSESSID(Strictly Essential):Purpose: Maintains an ephemeral PHP session handshake to generate and validate anti-CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) tokens when you submit project inquiries. Duration: Session only (automatically cleared when you close your browser tab). Type: HTTP Cookie.
-
stackvel_cookie_consent(Functional Preference):Purpose: Stores your response to the Cookie Consent banner (values:
"all"or"essential") so you are not prompted repeatedly on every page load. Duration: Persistent (12 months). Type:localStorage. -
Motion Accessibility Preference:
Purpose: Stores your choice when you click the "Pause motion" / "Resume motion" button, ensuring animated elements respect your vestibular comfort. Duration: Session / CSS state. Type: DOM Class State.
4. Zero Third-Party Tracking Pixels
For absolute transparency, we explicitly declare that this website does NOT load or embed any of the following:
- No Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, or GA4 surveillance scripts.
- No Meta (Facebook) Pixel, Instagram conversion tracking, or CAPI beacons.
- No LinkedIn Insight Tag, Twitter/X universal pixel, or TikTok trackers.
- No Hotjar, Clarity, or third-party session recording keystroke sniffers.
- No third-party ad networks or programmatic retargeting platforms.
5. Compliance & Legal Basis (GDPR / CCPA / ePrivacy)
Under the European Union ePrivacy Directive and GDPR (Article 6(1)(f)), strictly necessary session cookies required to securely deliver services requested by the user (such as anti-CSRF tokens for form security) do not require prior consent. For non-essential preferences, we provide clear notice and interactive controls.
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), because we do not sell or share personal information for behavioral advertising, no "Do Not Sell My Info" opt-out is legally necessitated; however, we uphold these protections universally for all users.
6. Managing & Clearing Your Choices
You maintain complete control over how cookies and storage are managed:
- Re-open Cookie Banner: You can click the "Manage Cookie Choices" link located in the footer of any page at any time to update your selection.
- Browser Settings: You can configure your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) to block or delete cookies and local storage. Blocking essential cookies may prevent the inquiry form from generating its security token.
