1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small alphanumeric text files placed on your computer or mobile terminal when you visit web properties. They are widely utilized to make websites operate securely and efficiently, as well as to supply non-personally identifiable analytical reporting to site administrators. We also utilize modern browser localStorage APIs to store your cookie consent preferences permanently without transmitting superfluous HTTP headers.
2. Detailed Cookie Classification Table
The following table delineates every category of cookie and local storage item utilized on this domain:
| Token / Cookie Name | Category | Lifespan | Technical Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
mmg_cookie_consent |
Strictly Essential | Persistent (1 Year) | Stores your specific privacy choices (accept, reject, or custom configuration) to suppress redundant banners. |
__Host-csrf_token |
Strictly Essential | Session Duration | Cryptographic token preventing cross-site request forgery when submitting contact forms. |

3. Managing and Opting Out Via Browser Controls
In addition to our on-site cookie preference interface, most major modern web browsers permit granular control over cookie placement. You can configure your browser to block third-party cookies, alert you when a cookie is placed, or clear your browsing storage entirely upon exiting:
- Apple Safari: Navigate to Preferences → Privacy and select "Block all cookies" or enable "Prevent cross-site tracking".
- Google Chrome: Navigate to Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies and choose your preferred restriction level.
- Mozilla Firefox: Navigate to Settings → Privacy & Security and select "Strict" Enhanced Tracking Protection.
- Microsoft Edge: Navigate to Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies.
Impact of Blocking Essential Storage
If you disable strictly essential cookies or block local storage completely via browser developer settings, basic security controls and our consent preferences modal will be unable to remember your choices across subsequent page visits.
4. Inquiries and Policy Updates
