2. What we do store
Two things, both local storage rather than cookies, both first-party, and neither used to track you across sites or feed any advertising network.
| What | Type | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| Contact form draft | Local storage (not a cookie) | Saves your in-progress enquiry every few seconds as you type, so a closed tab or an accidental refresh does not lose it. On your next visit to the contact page, if a draft under 7 days old is found, we ask whether you would like to restore it or start fresh, it is never loaded into the form without asking first. | Up to 7 days, or until you submit the form, choose "start fresh," or clear your browser storage. |
| Return-visit continuity | Local storage (not a cookie) | If you spend meaningful time on the About or Services page without submitting the contact form, we note which one, so that if you land back on the homepage more than a day later we can offer a quiet "Continue exploring [that page]?" prompt instead of assuming you are starting over. Cleared the moment you do submit the form, since there is nothing left to pick back up. | Up to 30 days, cleared after the prompt is shown once, or on form submission. |
Neither is transmitted anywhere: unlike a cookie, local storage is never attached to a request, so both stay on your device until the conditions above clear them. Neither holds an identifier, and neither is shared with an analytics or advertising provider, or with any party outside Veltrix.
3. Third-party requests
The site loads a few resources from other providers. None of them set cookies for us or track you on our behalf, but any request your browser makes to another server necessarily reveals your IP address to that server. In the interest of being complete:
| Provider | What it serves | What it can see |
|---|---|---|
| Google Fonts | The Oswald and Montserrat typefaces. | Your IP address and browser, as part of the font request. |
| unpkg (Cloudflare) | The JavaScript libraries the site is built on. | Your IP address and browser, as part of the script request. |
| Google Analytics | Measures traffic on every page (see §1 and §4). | Your IP address (not stored in identifiable form), pages viewed, device and browser type, approximate location. |
| cPanel hosting | Hosts the site and delivers every page. | Standard server logs: IP, time, URL requested. |
| Calendly | Only if you click through to book a call. | Calendly sets its own cookies on its site. Its policies apply once you are there, not ours. |
Calendly is the only one of these that sets cookies on its site rather than ours, and only after you leave veltrix-solutions.com for theirs. Google Analytics is the only cookie set on this site itself, covered in full in §1 and §4.
4. About our analytics
We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand traffic in aggregate, which pages get read, roughly how many visitors we get, and where they come from, so we know what is working on the site. It does not tell us who you are.
Analytics reports:
- Pages viewed and time spent on them, in aggregate.
- Approximate location (city/country level, from IP), device type, and browser.
- How you arrived (search, direct, a link from elsewhere).
Analytics does not report:
- Your name, email, phone number, or anything you type into the contact form, that goes directly to us via email, never through Analytics.
- Your exact IP address in identifiable form.
- Anything that identifies you individually across visits or across other sites.
On your first visit, a banner at the bottom of the screen asks whether we can use Analytics. Nothing described above runs until you choose Accept — choosing Decline, or simply closing the banner without answering, means Analytics is never loaded on that visit. Your answer is remembered in your browser so the banner does not ask again; see "How to remove it" below to change your mind later.
5. How to remove it
Your cookie banner choice:
- Clear site data for this domain in your browser settings (usually under Privacy) — this also erases your Accept/Decline answer, so the banner asks again on your next visit.
Analytics cookies:
- Clear site data for this domain in your browser settings (usually under Privacy), which
removes the
_gacookies immediately. - Use a browser extension or setting that blocks Google Analytics, several ad blockers do this by default.
- Browse in a private or incognito window, where cookies are discarded when you close it.
Contact-form draft:
- Submit the form, or choose "start fresh" when offered, and the draft is deleted immediately.
- Clear site data for this domain, same as above.
- Disable JavaScript, the form still works, it just will not save a draft.
Return-visit continuity:
- It clears itself automatically: after the prompt is shown once, after 30 days, or the moment you submit the contact form.
- Clear site data for this domain, same as above.
- Disable JavaScript, About and Services still work, they just will not record the visit.
Blocking any of these does not break anything. Every page, including the contact form, works without them.
6. Changes
If we add any tracking beyond Google Analytics, or anything that requires consent under applicable law, we will update this policy and the "last updated" date above, and ask for consent first where required.
