Cookie Policy
Consent version: 2026-09-04.1 · Technical and documentary review completed: 4 September 2026. This policy reflects the configuration and official documentation reviewed on that date and will be updated if the technologies, providers or consent mechanism change.
1. Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small files that a site or third party may store in a browser. Other technologies, such as local storage, identifiers or embedded requests, may perform similar functions. The application code creates one first-party cookie to remember the privacy choice and, when the contrast control is used, saves that accessibility preference in local storage. Vercel Pro provides hosting and may process technical request and security logs needed to deliver and protect the site. Analytics and maps remain blocked until the relevant permission is given.
2. Categories in use
- Necessary or preference: stores the notice version and the selected categories so that the decision is not requested on every visit. The website remains usable when all optional categories are rejected.
- Analytics and campaign measurement: Google Analytics 4 measures visits, navigation, campaign sources and contact clicks using first-party cookies and identifiers. The Google Ads conversion tag shares this category to attribute contact clicks to campaigns without advertising cookies. Both tags remain blocked until this category is accepted, and ads personalisation remains disabled.
- External content: allows Google Maps iframes to load. Google receives a request and may use cookies, identifiers or other data under its policies.
3. Technologies used and available information
| Name or technology | Provider | Purpose | Category | Type | Duration | Activation | Transfers |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| dfja_consent_v1 | drfranciscoabellan.com | Remember the version and selected categories. | Necessary / preference | First party | 6 months | When accept, reject or configure is saved. | Not disclosed to external providers for their own purposes; Vercel may process the request header when serving the site as hosting provider. |
| dfja_contrast_v1 | drfranciscoabellan.com | Remember whether the user selected standard or high contrast to adapt the presentation. | Technical / preference, consent-exempt | First-party local storage (localStorage) | Until the user changes the preference or clears browser data. | When the contrast selector is used; the system contrast preference is also honoured when no saved choice exists. | It is non-identifying, is not used for analytics, advertising or profiling and is not disclosed to third parties. |
| Google Analytics 4 / Google tag (G-W4D1S9LK5T) and Google Ads conversion tag | Google Ireland Limited and Google LLC, under the applicable terms | Measure visits, routes, campaigns and interaction events; record only telephone or WhatsApp clicks as potential leads and report them to Google Ads as conversions without advertising cookies. | Analytics and campaign measurement | Third-party script and first-party cookies | The _ga and _ga_<identifier> cookies have a default lifetime of up to 2 years, subject to browser limits. The Google Ads conversion tag sets no cookies of its own because the advertising Consent Mode states remain denied; attribution uses the click identifier present in the page address at the time of contact. | Only after “Analytics and campaign measurement” is accepted. Before acceptance, the external tag is not downloaded and all four Consent Mode v2 states remain denied. | The browser sends Google limited technical data, routes, source information, campaign identifiers and events. Message contents, telephone numbers, names and clinical information are not sent. Google may process data on global infrastructure under its terms and transfer mechanisms. |
| Google Maps (iframe and Google-controlled technologies) | Display interactive maps for the two locations. | External content | Third party | Varies according to the data, purpose, user settings and Google policies. | Only after “External content” is accepted. If rejected, the iframe does not load and a voluntary external link remains available. | When loaded, the browser sends Google technical request data such as the IP address, browser or device information, date, time and referring domain. Google may use cookies or other identifiers and process data on global infrastructure under its policies. |
4. Accepting, rejecting and withdrawing consent
The first layer makes acceptance and rejection equally easy and also offers category settings. No optional category is preselected. You can change your choice later using the button below. Withdrawing a category prevents new loads; the page may reload to end resources that were already activated.
5. Deleting cookies in your browser
You can also delete or block cookies and local storage in your browser privacy settings, usually under Privacy and security > Cookies or Site data. If you delete the preference cookie, we will ask for your choice on the next visit. If you delete local storage, contrast will return to following your system preference. Blocking these technologies does not prevent browsing, but choices cannot be remembered.
6. Effects of rejection
The website, guides, links, telephone and WhatsApp remain available. Google Analytics will not measure the visit or contact clicks, and an information panel replaces interactive maps; external links to open Google Maps still work when you choose to click them.
7. External links and review
Ordinary links to WhatsApp, Google Maps, LinkedIn and, when available, the Google profile and review form do not load provider content inside the site: communication begins when the user opens the link. Providers can change cookies or periods without this site’s involvement, so the inventory must be checked periodically and whenever an integration changes.
