Only essential session and preference technology is currently used. If non-essential technology is introduced, this policy and the website’s consent controls will be updated before it is activated.
1. What cookies and similar technologies are
A cookie is a small text file stored by a website in your browser. Cookies can support security, maintain a session or remember preferences. Similar technologies, including local storage, can store information in the browser without using a traditional cookie.
2. Technologies used on this website
| Name | Type and provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
PHPSESSID | Essential first-party session cookie | Maintains a secure website session. It supports CSRF protection, maths CAPTCHA state and secure administration functionality. | Normally until the browser session ends, subject to server session settings. |
pw-cookie-consent | Essential first-party local storage | Records that the cookie notice has been acknowledged so it is not shown on every visit from the same browser. | Until you clear this website’s browser storage. |
3. Why these technologies are used without optional consent controls
The session cookie is used for security and functionality requested when you use forms or secure areas. The local-storage entry remembers the preference created when you acknowledge the notice. The website does not currently place non-essential analytics, advertising or behavioural-tracking cookies.
Essential technologies cannot always be disabled through a website control without affecting the requested service. They are still explained here for transparency.
4. Third-party services and links
The website loads fonts from Google Fonts. A request to the font provider may transmit technical information such as an IP address and browser details, although ProxeWave does not use Google Fonts to place advertising cookies.
Links to WhatsApp, the ProxeWave blog, official resources and other external websites take you to services with their own cookies and privacy practices. Those providers control the technologies used after you visit their sites.
5. How to control or delete storage
You can use your browser settings to view, block or delete cookies and local storage. The exact controls depend on the browser and device. Blocking the PHP session cookie may prevent CAPTCHA, form-security or administration features from working correctly.
To make the cookie notice appear again, remove the pw-cookie-consent entry from this website’s local storage or clear site data for ProxeWave.
6. If our cookie use changes
If analytics, advertising, embedded media or other non-essential technology is introduced, it will not be activated until the required information and consent choices are available. We will update this policy and may ask visitors to make a new choice.
7. Personal information
Technical information connected with website security or sessions may be personal information. Our Privacy Policy explains the purposes, lawful bases, recipients, retention periods and rights that apply.
