What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember preferences and understand how pages are used.
How we use cookies
Net Route Base uses a minimal set of cookies. Essential cookies remember your cookie consent choice. Optional analytics cookies, set only if you accept, help us see which briefing pages readers open most often.
Cookies we use
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| nrb_cookie_consent | Stores your accept or reject choice for optional cookies (localStorage key with equivalent function) | 12 months | Net Route Base |
| _ga | Optional analytics — distinguishes visitors | 2 years | Google Analytics (only if accepted) |
| _ga_* | Optional analytics — session state | 2 years | Google Analytics (only if accepted) |
Essential vs analytics
Essential: Required to remember your consent decision. Rejecting optional cookies does not remove this preference storage.
Analytics: Loaded only after you click Accept on the cookie banner. They are not required to read public pages or submit the contact form.
Managing cookies
You can change your choice by clearing site data in your browser and revisiting the site—the banner will appear again. Most browsers let you block all cookies under settings. Blocking essential preference storage may cause the banner to reappear each visit.
Third-party cookies
If analytics are enabled, Google may set additional cookies subject to their policy. We do not use advertising or social tracking pixels.
Impact of disabling
Disabling optional analytics does not affect access to briefings information, legal pages, or form submission. Disabling all storage may reset your consent preference each session.
