Cookie policy
Updated: 28 September 2026
At a glance
We use essential browser storage for product selection and cookie preferences. We use Google Analytics 4 only with your consent. This integration does not enable advertising cookies.
What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small pieces of data stored on your device by a website. Browser session storage (sessionStorage) is a different storage technology. This policy covers both, although our product selection feature does not use a cookie.
What does ALKEPA store?
| Name and type | Purpose and contents | Provider and duration |
|---|---|---|
alkepa-selectionsessionStorage | Remembers only selected product identifiers. Used to prepare your enquiry list and email draft; not used for advertising or audience measurement. | UAB Alkepa · first-party storage. Lasts for the browser tab session; normally cleared when the tab is closed. Browser session restoration may also restore this data. |
alkepa-consent-v1localStorage | Remembers your acceptance or refusal of analytics, the date of your choice and the policy version. Necessary to respect your preferences. | UAB Alkepa · 180 days, or until you clear site data. |
_ga, _ga_*Google Analytics · only with consent | Distinguishes visitors and maintains analytics session state. | Google · first-party cookies, up to 2 years; expiry may renew on visits with valid consent. |
Data is written when you change your product selection. It is not automatically sent to ALKEPA. When you choose to contact us by email, the products are included in an email draft; you decide whether to send it.
Consent and withdrawal
Analytics stays off until you choose “Accept analytics”. Choosing “Essential only” lets you use the site without analytics. The Google tag is not loaded before consent. Analytics relies on your consent under GDPR Article 6(1)(a) and ePrivacy Directive Article 5(3). Essential storage does not require consent.
To withdraw consent, open “Cookie settings” in the footer and choose “Essential only”. We then stop further measurement and delete GA cookies accessible to this site. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal. We remember your choice for 180 days and ask again after expiry or if storage is cleared.
What does Google Analytics measure?
The purpose is to understand interest in pages and products and improve the website. GA4 may process pseudonymous identifiers, page views, interactions, device and browser information, traffic sources and approximate location. We do not send email contents or product enquiry data to GA4.
The recipient is Google, including Google Ireland Limited and its processing service providers. Data may be processed outside the EEA, including in the US, under Google’s applicable transfer safeguards. This is not a guarantee of anonymous collection.
Cookie lifetime is different from retention in the Google account. Event-data retention depends on the GA4 property settings, which have not been verified at the time of publication. Contact export@alkepa.lt for the applicable period or to exercise your data rights.

How can you manage storage?
Remove selected products in the enquiry list or by clicking their selection button again. You can clear site data or block storage in your browser settings. If storage is blocked, your selection will not persist between pages; you can still browse products and contact us by email.

We will update this policy when the technologies we use change. The GDPR applies where personal data is processed. You may raise data protection concerns with Lithuania’s State Data Protection Inspectorate or the supervisory authority in your EU country.
