1. What cookies are
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Some are needed for the site to work, others help measure traffic or support marketing. This policy explains what webdotdev.ro uses and the choices you have.
2. In short
Without your consent the site works with no statistics or marketing cookies. Fonts are hosted on our own server and the audit form sets no cookies. Statistics and marketing tools (loaded through Google Tag Manager) start only after you accept them in the cookie banner, and only the categories you chose.
3. What we use
| Category | Name / provider | Purpose | Duration | Consent needed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Cloudflare (hosting) | Delivering pages, security and attack protection. Cloudflare may set a technical cookie (e.g. __cf_bm) only when it detects suspicious traffic. |
Up to 30 minutes | No |
| Statistics (cookie-free) | Cloudflare Web Analytics, if enabled | Counting visits in aggregate, without cookies and without identifying you | – | No |
| Strictly necessary | webdotdev.ro: wdd_consent (local storage) |
Remembers your choice in the cookie banner | 6 months | No |
| Statistics | Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics 4: _ga, _ga_<ID> |
Measuring how the site is used (pages visited, traffic sources, requests sent) | Up to 2 years | Yes |
| Marketing | Google Ads (_gcl_au), Meta Pixel (_fbp), LinkedIn Insight Tag (li_fat_id) and other advertising pixels, depending on active campaigns |
Measuring ad campaigns and showing relevant ads on other platforms | Up to 2 years | Yes |
Statistics and marketing cookies are set only after you consent to that category. We use Google Consent Mode v2: until you consent, Google Tag Manager does not load at all.
4. Giving or withdrawing consent
On your first visit we ask through a small banner at the bottom of the page. You can accept all categories, reject them all, or choose statistics and marketing separately. Rejecting is as easy as accepting and does not affect how the site works.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time from the “Cookie settings” link in the site footer. Your choice is kept for 6 months, after which we ask again.
5. Browser controls
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the site works.
