1. What are cookies and local storage?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Local storage and session storage are similar records kept in your browser: session storage entries are deleted when you close the tab, local storage entries remain until you delete them.

2. Records used by our website

The records below are needed for the site to work and to remember the preferences you choose; they do not identify you and are not shared with third parties.

Name	Type	Purpose	Duration
b4_cookie	Local storage	Remembers that you closed the cookie notice.	Until you delete it
b4_a11y	Local storage	Remembers your accessibility preferences (text size, contrast, dark theme, reduced motion).	Until you delete it
b4_voter	Local storage	A random key that prevents repeat votes from the same browser in polls and page feedback.	Until you delete it
b4_doclist	Local storage	Keeps the documents you added to your list on the Documents page.	Until you delete it

Session cookies (b4_access_token, b4_refresh_token, b4_persist) and the maintenance-mode marker (b4_maint) are used only for site administrators signed in to the management panel; they are not written to visitors' browsers.

3. Third-party services

• Cloudflare Turnstile: used in the contact, quote, service and career forms and in the newsletter sign-up to verify that a submission is made by a person. During verification Cloudflare processes browser and device information under its own privacy policy.
• Google Maps: the maps on the site (the small map in the footer and the map on the contact page) load only when you click "Show map". When a map loads, Google may use its own cookies.
• YouTube: videos load from youtube-nocookie.com and only when you press play. Once you play a video, YouTube may use its own cookies and similar technologies.

4. Managing your preferences

You can delete or block cookies and site data in your browser settings; local storage entries are removed with the "clear site data" option. If you block the necessary records, the cookie notice may reappear on every visit and your accessibility preferences may not be remembered.
