Manage your cookie preferences
You can review or change your cookie choices at any time. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it:
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We use the term "cookies" to also cover similar technologies: tracking pixels (such as the Meta Pixel, Google Tag and LinkedIn Insight Tag), scripts and local storage. Cookies can be first-party (set by epifor.com) or third-party (set by our providers, such as Google), and session (deleted when you close the browser) or persistent (stored for a set duration).
How consent works on this website
- On your first visit, our consent banner lets you Accept all, Reject all, or choose per category. The options require the same effort, one click each.
- No analytics, marketing, or functional cookies are set before you consent. Only strictly necessary cookies run by default.
- Continuing to browse, scrolling, or dismissing the banner is not treated as consent.
- You can change or withdraw your choices at any time via the Cookie Settings link above or in the website footer. Changes take effect immediately.
- We keep a record of your consent (choice, categories, timestamp, policy version) so we can demonstrate it.
- We will ask you again after 12 months, or earlier if our cookies change materially.
The cookies we use
The live, automatically updated list of every cookie on this website (grouped by category, with provider, purpose and duration) is shown below, generated by our consent platform after each scan:
In summary, the categories are:
- Strictly necessary (always active): required for the site to function and to remember your cookie choices. Exempt from consent under art. 4(5) L.3471/2006.
- Analytics and performance (only with consent): help us understand how visitors use the site.
- Marketing and advertising (only with consent): measure our campaigns and show relevant Epifor ads elsewhere.
- Functional (only with consent): enhanced features such as embedded content.
WhatsApp chat: the WhatsApp button on this website opens a chat only when you click it; no WhatsApp cookies are set by merely visiting our pages. Your use of WhatsApp is governed by WhatsApp's privacy policy.
Consent signals to Google
Where you consent to analytics or advertising cookies, we pass your choice to Google through Google Consent Mode v2. If you reject them, Google tools receive a "denied" signal and set no cookies on your device.
