Your choices
Accept all, Reject all and Settings are offered equally. Necessary storage saves your choice only after you make it. Analytics starts only after consent; marketing is off. No Google request is made before consent. Without JavaScript, analytics stays off.
Declared cookies
This table is generated from the consent configuration the site runs with, so it changes only when the configuration does. Optional analytics cookies are set only after consent; the necessary consent cookie is saved when you accept, reject or save settings.
| Cookie | Category | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|---|
fst_consent | necessary | Stores your consent choices, timestamp, banner version and a random consent id generated by the consent tool; the id is never read by us or by our server code and is not linked to any other data. | 13 months | FieldServiceTested |
_ga | analytics | Distinguishes browsers for aggregate visit measurement after consent. | 13 months; not renewed on visits | Google Analytics 4 |
_ga_5VLH70CQRS | analytics | Stores analytics session state after consent. | 13 months; not renewed on visits | Google Analytics 4 |
Marketing: no cookies. This category is off and reserved for the future.
Local storage
The decision tools (the demo scorecard and the flat-rate price book) save what you enter in your browser’s local storage, under keys starting with fst:tool:, so that your work is still there when you come back. That data has no expiry, is never sent to us, and can be cleared from your browser’s site-data settings or with the tool’s own clear button.
Cookieless measurement
Cloudflare Web Analytics measures page performance without cookies, local storage or a persistent identifier, so it is not gated by cookie consent. It is separate from GA4, which loads only after analytics consent. Cloudflare documents this behavior in its Web Analytics collection policy.
The site also counts commercial-link activations and tool starts, completions and exports. These aggregate counters do not read or set cookies and never include tool entries or visitor identifiers.
Change or withdraw consent
Choose Cookie settings in the footer, then Reject all or turn analytics off and save. Analytics cookies are deleted and the page reloads to stop the loaded analytics code. The necessary cookie remembers your rejection. You can also delete any of these cookies from your browser’s settings. How Google uses data from sites that use its analytics: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
We ask again after 13 months or when the categories change. Consent is stored with a timestamp and banner version. For other processing and server-side retention, see the privacy policy.
