1. What these technologies do
Cookies are small text files stored by a website. Local storage is a similar browser feature that lets a site remember information on a device. Some storage is essential to provide a feature you request or to keep the site secure. Optional technologies require your choice before they are used.
2. Storage used by BretoHome
| Name / provider | Purpose | Category | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
bretohome-cookie-consent-v1 | Remembers your separate choices for optional external media and visit statistics. | Essential local storage | Up to 6 months |
bretohome-visit-session-v1 | A random session identifier, last recorded view time and broad referral category for our own visit statistics. No contact details or IP addresses are stored in this analytics record. | Optional analytics session storage | Current browser tab; a new identifier after 30 minutes without a recorded page view. Cleared when you withdraw analytics consent. |
bretohome-wishlist | Keeps your selected products, quantities and notes on this device. | Essential local storage requested by you | Until you clear the wishlist or browser data |
bretohome-wishlist-owner | Keeps optional wishlist contact details on this device. | Essential local storage requested by you | Until you clear browser data |
| Hosting/authentication cookies | Security, request routing and authorised staff sign-in. Names may change as the hosting service evolves. | Strictly necessary | Usually the session or a limited security period |
| Google Maps / Google | Displays the interactive showroom map and may support Google security, preferences and measurement. | Optional external media | Set and controlled by Google; duration varies |
3. Google Maps
The embedded map is blocked by default. It loads only after you choose “Accept optional”, enable “External media”, or press “Allow and show map”. Once loaded, Google may set or read cookies and process technical data under its own Privacy Policy. Refusing does not prevent you from using the rest of the catalogue; a normal directions link remains available.
4. Change or withdraw your choice
You can reopen the panel at any time. Withdrawing analytics permission stops future visit collection and clears the session identifier. Withdrawing external-media permission stops future Google Map loads; you may also need to delete cookies already placed by Google through your browser settings.
Visit statistics
With your permission, we collect public page paths (without search text, URL queries or fragments), time of view, a random session identifier, a broad referral category and device category. Reports cover the latest 90 days; older records are removed in bounded batches when new visits or reports are processed. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control signals disable collection. Existing permission for Google Maps alone does not enable analytics. Reports are restricted to authorised administrators and are not linked to wishlist contact details.
5. Browser controls
You can delete or block cookies and local storage in your browser. Blocking essential storage may stop the wishlist, privacy preference or secure administration from working as expected. For questions, contact mail@bretohome.com.
