Cookie policy: no cookies by default

OkInvoice sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser by default. What the editors' session cookie does and what would change if we enable analytics.

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as the browser's local storage, work in a comparable way. This page lists what okinvoice.eu stores on your device and why.

What we use today

As a visitor, you get no cookies from okinvoice.eu. The site stores nothing in your browser by default, and there are currently no analytics or advertising cookies. That is why you do not see a cookie banner.

The validator and the deadline checker work without cookies. The validator processes your file inside your browser and never uploads it. The checker can put your answers in the part of the address after the "#", which browsers do not send to our server.

Fonts are hosted on our own server, and the site shows no ads, so no third party sets cookies through our pages.

The editors' area (/studio), where our editors write and publish articles, sets one cookie after an editor logs in:

Name Purpose Lifetime Who gets it
studio_session Keeps a logged-in editor signed in 30 days or until logout Logged-in editors only

This cookie is strictly necessary to provide the editors' login, so it needs no consent. Ordinary visitors never receive it.

If we enable analytics

We have prepared Google Analytics 4 through Google Tag Manager with Google Consent Mode v2, but it is switched off. If we enable it, we will update this page and the privacy policy. It would then work like this:

  • Visitors in the EEA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland see a consent dialog first. Analytics runs, and analytics cookies are set, only if you agree.
  • In other regions, analytics would be on by default unless your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal.
  • A "Cookie settings" link in the footer lets you change or withdraw your choice at any time.
  • Your choice is saved in your browser's local storage under the name okinvoice-consent, so that we do not ask again on every page.
  • Advertising storage and ad personalisation stay denied everywhere.

With your consent, Google Analytics sets cookies such as these:

Name Purpose Lifetime
_ga Tells visits from different browsers apart Up to 2 years
_ga_<ID> Keeps the state of a visit Up to 2 years

How to manage cookies in your browser

You can view and delete cookies and local storage in your browser settings at any time, and you can block cookies completely. The public pages of okinvoice.eu work fully without cookies.
