Cookies and external services policy
Version: 11 October 2026
Browsing without advertising tracking
MTPGS loads no advertising, third-party analytics tool or social-network pixel by default. Main fonts, icons and images are served locally. You can read pages and submit an enquiry without accepting optional services. Continuing to browse does not authorise the external map.
Strictly necessary elements
The mtpgs_session cookie secures forms and administration sessions. It holds a random identifier, is protected from JavaScript access and is transmitted securely when the website uses HTTPS. It is a session cookie, not an advertising tracker. Administration expires after 30 minutes of inactivity. The installer temporarily uses its own mtpgs_install session and must be removed after installation. These security mechanisms do not require optional consent.
Remembering your choice
Your browser stores mtpgs-preferences locally to remember your map choice and its date for approximately six months (183 days). This preference is not an advertising identifier and is not sent to an analytics service. If local storage is blocked or cleared, you may be asked again. An expired preference is not authorisation.
Optional external map
Where a map is offered, a non-blocking panel lets you accept all, reject all or customise. The only supplied optional category is Google Maps. Even after acceptance, a map loads only when its loading button is activated. Loading connects your browser to Google and shares connection information, including your IP address. Google may use its own trackers and process data under its policies; tracker names and lifetimes may change. You may instead choose a voluntary external link without embedding a map.
Refusal, dismissal and withdrawal
Accept and reject are equally accessible. Refusal keeps embedded maps disabled and does not affect forms. Dismissing the panel without accepting preserves the absence of consent. The footer preference link lets you change your choice. Withdrawal removes current embedded maps and prevents future loads until new consent. The website cannot remotely remove every cookie set by another domain; you can also use your browser settings.
WhatsApp and other links
WhatsApp, telephone and email buttons are simple links. No WhatsApp widget or Facebook, Instagram or LinkedIn pixel loads automatically. Opening an external service moves you outside MTPGS website processing, and the provider’s policy applies. Sending an enquiry summary through WhatsApp still requires your confirmation.
Changes and contact
If analytics, embedded videos or other trackers are added later, their purposes, providers and lifetimes must be documented and consent controls adapted before activation. Questions: contact@mtpgs.fr. Information about your data and rights is provided in the privacy policy.
