COOKIE
POLICY.
Opsionic uses cookies and similar browser storage to remember choices, protect forms, and—only when you accept Statistics—understand how the site is used. This page explains what each item does and how long it lasts. Last updated August 27, 2026.
Essential and Functional Storage
These items provide a feature you request, remember your choice, or protect a form. They are not used to advertise to you or follow you across websites.
| Identifier | Function | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| wpconsent_preferences | Remembers which optional cookie categories you accepted or rejected. | 30 Days |
| opl-draft | Local browser storage that keeps unfinished free-plan answers so you can continue after closing the tab. Removed after submission. | Up to 1 day |
| obe-size | Local browser storage that remembers whether you chose larger article text. | Until browser data is cleared |
| ct_draft | Local browser storage that keeps an unfinished contact message on this device until it is submitted or cleared. | Until submitted or browser data is cleared |
Comment Preferences
If comments are available and you choose to comment, WordPress can remember the details you entered so you do not have to type them again.
| Identifier | Function | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| comment_author_* | Remembers the name entered on a WordPress comment form. | Up to 1 year |
| comment_author_email_* | Remembers the email entered on a WordPress comment form. | Up to 1 year |
| comment_author_url_* | Remembers the website entered on a WordPress comment form. | Up to 1 year |
Essential Measurement — First-Party, No Cookies
To understand whether our pages are useful we record, on our own server only, how far a page was scrolled, how long it was active, which sections and buttons were used, and which page a visitor went to next. No cookie is set, no IP address or browser fingerprint is stored, and nothing is shared with any third party. A random value is kept in your browser's session storage so pages opened in the same tab can be counted as one visit; it disappears when the tab is closed. Because this cannot identify you, it runs without consent, as permitted for strictly limited audience measurement.
| Identifier | Function | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| ops_sid (session storage) | Joins page views opened in the same browser tab into one visit. Never sent to a third party. | Until the tab is closed |
Optional Marketing — Google Ads Measurement
We advertise on Google Search and measure which advertisements lead to a booked call or a form submission. These cookies are set only after you accept the Marketing category; until then Google Consent Mode keeps the tag cookieless.
| Identifier | Function | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _gcl_aw | Google Ads click identifier, so a conversion can be attributed to the advertisement that brought you here. | 90 days |
| _gcl_au | Google Ads conversion linker used to test advertising efficiency across sites. | 90 days |
| ops_gclid | Our own first-party copy of the click identifier, so that if an enquiry later becomes a client we can report it back to Google. Never shared with anyone else. | 90 days |
Optional Analytics — Microsoft Clarity
Clarity helps us find confusing pages by recording interaction patterns such as clicks, scrolling, and sessions. It can use identifiers, so it loads only after you accept the Statistics category.
| Identifier | Function | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| ANONCHK | Indicates whether an identifier can be transferred for Clarity analytics. | About 10 minutes |
| CLID | Identifies that Clarity has seen this browser before. | Up to 1 year |
| _clsk | Connects page views during one Clarity session. | About 1 day |
| _clck | Persists a Clarity browser identifier and preferences for this site. | Up to 1 year |
Cookie-Free Blog Measurement
The Blog Engine counts article views and offer clicks on this server as daily totals. It sets no analytics cookie, local-storage visitor ID, or cross-page profile. When you submit the free-plan form, its existing request also includes the source page, campaign tags, broad device class, browser language and time zone, completion time, and whether you resumed a saved draft. That context is attached only to the submitted plan; it does not create a separate browsing history.
Form Protection — Cloudflare Turnstile
The free plan page runs Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks that a submission comes from a person rather than a script. Writing a plan costs us money on every request, so this protects the service from abuse. It is used as an essential security measure.
Embedded Booking Calendar (Google)
The booking section of our site embeds Google Calendar appointment scheduling. When the calendar loads, Google may set its own cookies (for example NID) under Google's own cookie and privacy policies. These are third-party cookies we do not control; where required, the embedded content is subject to your consent choice. On mobile devices the calendar opens on Google's website instead of loading here.
| Identifier | Function | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| NID | Google preferences and session cookie set by the embedded calendar. | 6 Months |
