Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to enable websites to function correctly, to remember your preferences, and to provide aggregated information about how visitors use the site.
This policy describes the cookies used on atumen.info, their purpose, and the controls available to you.
2. Consent
When you first visit atumen.info, a cookie consent banner is displayed. You can choose to accept all cookies, accept partial cookies, or accept functional cookies only. Non-essential cookies are not set until you provide consent.
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by using the Cookie Settings link in the footer of every page. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any prior processing carried out on the basis of that consent.
3. Cookie Categories
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the site to function. They cannot be disabled via the cookie banner because the site cannot operate without them. They include session identifiers, cookie consent status storage, and security tokens for forms.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| atumen_consent | Stores cookie consent preference | 12 months |
| PHPSESSID | Server-side session identifier | Session |
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies collect aggregated information about how visitors use the site — which pages are visited most, where visitors arrive from, and how long sessions last. This information is used to improve content organisation. No individual visitor is identified through these cookies.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics — distinguishes unique visitors | 24 months |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics — maintains session state | 24 months |
| _gid | Google Analytics — daily unique visitor | 24 hours |
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow the site to remember choices you make — such as your preferred content display — to provide a more consistent experience. Disabling these cookies may affect how certain features behave.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| atumen_pref | Stores display and navigation preferences | 6 months |
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some functionality on this site — specifically the Google Maps embed on the Contact page — may result in cookies being set by Google when the embedded content is loaded. These cookies are subject to Google's own privacy and cookie policies.
Where embedded third-party content sets cookies, those cookies are only activated when the relevant embedded element is rendered on a page you visit.
5. Managing Cookies via Your Browser
In addition to the consent banner, you can manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. Note that blocking all cookies may prevent some site functionality from working as intended.
6. Contact & Complaints
