Cookie Policy

Last updated: January 2026  ·  Revision 01-B

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies ulbak.info places on your device, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. This policy should be read alongside the Privacy Policy.

A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. Cookies serve a range of purposes: some are essential to the operation of the site, others record preferences, and others collect aggregate data about how the site is used. The cookie banner displayed on your first visit asks for your consent to non-essential cookies.

01

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function. They cannot be disabled because the site will not operate correctly without them. No consent is required to place essential cookies — they are placed as soon as you visit the site.

Cookie Name Purpose Expiry
ulbak_consent Records your cookie consent choice so the banner is not shown on every page load. 12 months
PHPSESSID Standard PHP session identifier. Maintains session state across page loads. Session
02

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember preferences you set during a session — for example, the state of accordion sections you have opened. They do not collect information that identifies you personally and are not shared with third parties.

Functional cookies are placed when you select "Functional Only" or "Accept All" in the cookie banner. You may accept functional cookies without accepting analytics cookies.

Cookie Name Purpose Expiry
ulbak_prefs Stores UI preference state (e.g., last-opened accordion section) for improved page experience. Session
03

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies collect aggregate information about how visitors use the site: which pages are visited most frequently, how long visitors spend on each page, and where visitors arrive from. This information is used to improve the structure and content of the archive. Analytics cookies are only placed when you select "Accept All" in the cookie banner.

Analytics data is collected in aggregate form. Individual visitor data is not reviewed by the editorial team and is not used to identify any specific person.

Cookie Name Purpose Expiry
_ga Google Analytics — distinguishes unique visitors for aggregate traffic reporting. 2 years
_ga_* Google Analytics — maintains session state for the analytics measurement period. 2 years
04

Third-Party Cookies

The embedded Google Maps iframe on the contact page may place cookies from Google's domain when you interact with the map. These cookies are governed by Google's Cookie Policy and are outside of Ulbak's direct control. You may prevent the map from placing cookies by not interacting with it, or by blocking third-party cookies in your browser settings.

CDN-delivered assets (JavaScript libraries, fonts) may result in network requests to third-party servers. These requests include standard HTTP data (IP address, browser type) but are not used to place persistent cookies on your device by those services in the normal course of operation.

No advertising cookies, social media tracking pixels, or remarketing cookies are placed on any page of this site.

05

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in the site footer. This reopens the cookie consent banner, where you may accept all cookies, accept functional cookies only, or make a partial selection.

Manage your current cookie preferences:

You may also manage cookies directly through your browser. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies from within the browser's settings or preferences panel. Note that blocking all cookies will prevent essential cookies from being placed and may affect the basic operation of the site.

Browser-specific cookie management instructions are available from the browser developer's support documentation:

Updates to This Policy

This Cookie Policy is reviewed when the cookies used on the site change materially — for example, when a new analytics service is introduced or when an existing service changes its cookie behaviour. The revision number and last-updated date at the top of this page reflect the current version.
