What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by a website you visit. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, and to provide information to site owners.

Cookies we use

Strictly necessary / functional

  • nf_lang — Remembers the language you have chosen via the language switcher. Set only when you actively switch language. Lifetime: session.
  • Netlify session cookies — Set by our forms provider (Netlify) when you submit the contact form or subscribe to the newsletter, for spam prevention (Akismet).

Analytics — opt-in only

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use publixgroup.io. GA4 sets cookies that store a pseudonymous identifier for up to 2 years:

  • _ga — Google Analytics client identifier. Lifetime: 2 years.
  • _ga_F39X0LXQTH — Google Analytics 4 session state. Lifetime: 2 years.

These cookies load only after you click "Accept" in our cookie banner. If you decline (or ignore the banner), no analytics cookies are set and no analytics data is collected. GA4 does not log or store full IP addresses; Google uses the IP only transiently to derive coarse geolocation and then discards it.

Google Analytics is provided by Google Ireland Limited. Data may be processed by Google LLC (United States) under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. See Google's privacy policy.

Marketing / tracking

We do not use marketing, advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. No third-party marketing trackers (Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight, etc.) run on this site.

Managing your consent

You can accept or decline analytics cookies via the banner at the bottom of the page. You can change your mind at any time — reset your cookie choice to show the banner again. You can also delete cookies from your browser at any time via your browser settings.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent change.
