Cookie Policy
Latest Update: September 7, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how INVENTIVAT CONSULTANCY, S.L.U. ("INVENTIVAT") uses cookies and similar browser-storage technologies on www.inventivat.eu (the "Site"). It should be read together with the Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
Cookies are small files stored by a browser on a user's device. They can be used to remember preferences, maintain technical functionality, distinguish users or sessions, and measure how a website is used. The Site may also use browser storage such as localStorage for similar purposes, for example to remember a consent choice.
2. Categories Used on This Site
2.1. Necessary and security technologies
These technologies support essential functions such as remembering the user's analytics choice and protecting the contact form against spam or automated abuse. They are not used for personalised advertising.
2.2. Analytics technologies
Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity are used to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve its content and performance. These analytics tools are loaded only after the user explicitly accepts analytics through the cookie banner.
2.3. Third-party embedded content
The Site may display recent LinkedIn content through an Elfsight widget. Elfsight states that its visitor-facing cookie "elfsight_viewed_recently" may be used to avoid counting repeated views within a short period. The widget may also involve requests to third-party services when content is displayed or interacted with.
3. Cookies and Storage Items Used
The following table reflects the technologies currently used or expected to be used by the Site. Exact names or durations may change if a provider changes its implementation.
| Cookie / storage item | Provider | Category | Purpose | Typical duration / activation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| inventivat-analytics-consent (localStorage) | INVENTIVAT | Necessary / preference | Remembers whether analytics was accepted or rejected. | Until the user clears site data or the preference is changed. |
| _ga | Google Analytics | Analytics | Distinguishes users for website analytics. | Up to 2 years; only after analytics consent. |
| _ga_<container-id> | Google Analytics | Analytics | Maintains session state. | Up to 2 years; only after analytics consent. |
| _clck, _clsk | Microsoft Clarity | Analytics | Associates page views and sessions for behavioural analytics. | Varies by cookie; only after analytics consent. |
| CLID, ANONCHK, MR, MUID, SM | Microsoft Clarity / Microsoft | Analytics / third-party | Supports browser/session identification and Clarity analytics. | Varies by cookie; only after analytics consent. |
| elfsight_viewed_recently | Elfsight | Embedded content / functional | Helps prevent repeated widget view counts from the same visitor. | Approximately 15 seconds, according to Elfsight. |
| hCaptcha security cookies / similar storage | hCaptcha / Intuition Machines, Inc. | Necessary / security | Helps detect bots, spam and abusive form submissions. | May vary according to hCaptcha configuration and security requirements. |
4. Analytics Consent
On a user's first visit, the Site displays a cookie banner that allows the user to accept analytics or reject analytics. If analytics is rejected, Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity are not enabled for analytics storage. The Site does not grant advertising storage through its current analytics configuration.
The Site stores the user's analytics choice in localStorage under the key "inventivat-analytics-consent" so that the banner does not need to be shown on every page view.
5. Changing or Withdrawing Your Choice
You may delete or reset the Site's stored consent preference at any time through your browser's site-data or storage controls. You may also delete cookies individually or clear all cookies for the Site through your browser settings.
Rejecting analytics does not prevent access to the Site. However, blocking strictly necessary security technologies such as hCaptcha may prevent the contact form from working correctly.
6. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Most browsers allow users to view, block or delete cookies and other site data. The exact steps depend on the browser and version. Please refer to the privacy or site-data settings in your browser, including Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Safari and other browsers you may use.
7. Third-Party Information
Third-party providers may change the cookies, storage technologies or retention periods used by their services. For the most current technical information, consult the relevant provider documentation:
- Google Analytics cookie usage
- Microsoft Clarity cookies
- hCaptcha Privacy Policy
- Elfsight GDPR and cookies information
8. Updates to this Cookie Policy
INVENTIVAT may update this Cookie Policy when the Site, its consent mechanism, its service providers or the technologies used change. The latest update date will be shown at the beginning of this document.
