Cookie Policy

Effective date: June 11, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies northernmfg.com (the “Site”) uses, why the Site does not show a cookie banner, and how you can opt out. It consolidates and replaces the regional cookie policies (EU, UK, Canada, Australia, South Africa, and Brazil) previously published on this domain. It supplements our Privacy Policy.

What Cookies Are

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in your browser. Cookies can remember preferences, keep track of a browsing session, or measure how a site is used. Related technologies such as scripts and local storage behave similarly; for convenience this policy refers to all of them as cookies.

What This Site Uses

The Site is a static website. It has no login, no shopping cart, and no advertising. The complete list of measurement technologies is:

Google Analytics 4 (analytics)

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand which pages are visited and how the Site performs. GA4 sets first-party cookies (names beginning with _ga) that distinguish browsers for measurement.

Our GA4 configuration uses Google Consent Mode v2 with the following fixed defaults:

analytics_storage: granted (anonymous usage measurement)
ad_storage: denied
ad_user_data: denied
ad_personalization: denied
Google Signals: off

In plain terms: we measure page visits, and we have switched off every advertising, remarketing, and cross-site profiling capability the tool offers. Analytics data is not used to build advertising profiles, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google.

Cloudflare Web Analytics (analytics, cookieless)

We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics for aggregate performance measurement. It sets no cookies and uses no client-side identifiers.

What we do not use

No advertising or marketing cookies
No cross-site tracking cookies or third-party trackers
No social media pixels
No functional third-party cookies

The Site sets no advertising, marketing, or cross-site tracking cookies, which are the categories that consent banners exist to gate. The only cookies present are first-party analytics cookies running with all advertising signals denied. Rather than interrupt every visit with a banner, we document the full configuration here and give you direct opt-out controls below. If our use of cookies ever changes in a way that requires consent, we will add a consent mechanism before that change goes live.

How to Opt Out

You can opt out of analytics measurement in any of these ways:

Browser settings. Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies for specific sites or all sites. Blocking cookies for northernmfg.com does not break the Site.
Google Analytics opt-out. Install Google’s official Analytics opt-out browser add-on, which stops GA4 measurement on every site you visit.
Global Privacy Control. If your browser sends a GPC signal, we treat it as an opt-out of “sale”/“sharing” where those concepts apply. We do not sell or share personal information, and we honor the signal.
Private browsing. Cookies set during a private or incognito session are deleted when the session ends.

For opting out of marketing email and exercising data rights (access, deletion, correction), see the Your Choices and Rights section of our Privacy Policy.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when the Site’s measurement configuration changes. The effective date above shows when it last changed.
