Policy
Cookie notice
Only one cookie is ever set here, and only on the contact page, where it guards the enquiry form against abuse. It uses no analytics, advertising or social media cookies, and no third-party cookies of any kind, which is why there is no cookie banner.
The one cookie
| Name | Where | Purpose | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| qvd_desk | The contact page only, and only when the form is shown | Links your browser to a short-lived security record so the form can check that a submission came from the page it was shown on and limit repeated sends | Until you close your browser; the security token it refers to expires after two hours |
The cookie contains a random reference and nothing else. The record it refers to holds a security token, the time the token was issued and how many messages were sent in that session. Any session record past the two-hour mark is cleared out whenever the contact page is next loaded.
Why there is no banner
The Data Protection Commission's guidance on cookies explains that consent is not needed for cookies that are strictly necessary to provide a service the user has asked for. The cookie above exists only to make the contact form work securely when you choose to use it, so it falls under that exemption. The same guidance makes clear that analytics and advertising cookies do need consent. This site uses neither.
If that ever changes, we will update this page and ask for consent before setting any non-essential cookie.
Other storage
The free tools keep what you type in the page's memory while the tab is open. They do not use cookies, local storage or any other browser storage, and nothing is kept after you close the tab.
Controlling cookies
Browsers let you refuse or clear cookies in their settings. With the contact page cookie refused, the enquiry form has no way to confirm a submission, so it points you to hello@qaveridia.online instead; email reaches us just the same.
