Cookie Policy

This page explains how POT GmbH & Co. KG uses cookies and similar technologies on potgmbhco.digital. It lists what is set, what each cookie does, and how you can control or remove them through your own browser. It is written to be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

What cookies are

A short definition, then the parts that matter in practice on this site.

Definition

Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. They let the site remember information between page loads, such as a session identifier or a preference you have set.

Why they exist

HTTP is stateless. Without a cookie, a site cannot tell that the form you started on one page is the same visit as the page you submit from. Cookies close that gap.

Required vs optional

Some cookies are needed for the site to work at all. Others are optional and only set if you agree. This site currently uses only the required kind.

Your control

You can delete or block cookies at any time through your browser settings. Blocking them does not break the internet — it can, however, break parts of a site that rely on a session.

Scope of this policy

This policy applies to potgmbhco.digital only. Third-party sites you reach through an external link have their own cookie policies, which we do not control.

Cookies we use

Two functional cookies at most. No advertising cookies. No cross-site tracking.

Set on this site

Session cookie

Keeps a form submission consistent across page loads. When you send a message through the contact form, the site needs to know that the fields you filled in and the page you submit from belong to the same visit. It holds no personal profile and is discarded when you close the browser.

Set on this site

Preference cookie

Remembers a setting you have chosen — for example your cookie choice — so the site does not ask again on every page. It stores your selection, not your identity.

Not set

Advertising and tracking

We do not set advertising cookies and we do not follow you across other websites.

Essential cookies

Essential cookies carry the basic functions of this site: submitting the contact form securely and keeping a session open while you move between pages. They are not used to build a profile of you and they never collect information for marketing.

Because they are required for the site to function, they cannot be switched off through this website itself. You can still block or delete them in your browser, but parts of the site may then stop working as expected — a contact form that cannot remember your draft, for example, or a session that ends between steps.

Essential cookies are not shared with advertising networks. If a service provider is used to deliver the site, that provider may process them only to operate the service, under the terms of the contract with POT GmbH & Co. KG.

Analytics and advertising

This site does not use analytics cookies to profile visitors, and it does not use advertising cookies. No data from this site is sold or shared with ad networks for retargeting.

If that ever changes, this policy will be updated first and consent will be requested where the law requires it — before any new cookie is set. You would see the change on this page, with a new "Last updated" date at the top.

The only measurement this site performs is the basic server-side logging needed to keep it available and secure — request logs, error rates, and similar operational records. That is infrastructure, not visitor profiling, and it is not used for advertising.

Managing cookies

Every mainstream browser lets you view, delete, and block cookies. These are the four places to look; the exact labels differ slightly between browsers.

  1. Step 1

    Open your browser settings

    Look for a section called Privacy, Site settings, or Content settings. In most browsers it sits under the main settings menu, not under a page-specific menu.

  2. Step 2

    Review what is stored

    Browsers list cookies per site. Find potgmbhco.digital in that list to see exactly what this site has stored on your device — usually a session entry and your cookie choice.

  3. Step 3

    Delete or block

    Delete individual entries, clear everything, or set the browser to block cookies from specific sites. Deleting cookies may sign you out of sessions or reset preferences on sites you use.

  4. Step 4

    Use private browsing if needed

    A private or incognito window starts with a clean cookie store and discards it when you close the window. Useful for testing how this site behaves without stored preferences.

If your browser's help pages use different wording, search for "cookies" inside that help section — every mainstream browser documents this under its privacy pages.

Changes to this policy

If the cookies used on this site change, this policy will be updated and the revised version published here, with a new "Last updated" date. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.

The current version was published on 5 November 2026 and reflects the cookies actually set on potgmbhco.digital at that date: a session cookie for form consistency and a preference cookie for your saved choice. Nothing else is set.

These pages sit alongside this cookie policy and cover the other legal and company topics visitors ask about.
