Cookies and optional advertising measurement
Updated September 30, 2026.
Essential site functions
Session cookies support sign-in, cart and security. Optional tags on public marketing pages stay off until you choose Accept all. Reject non-essential keeps them off. The existing checkout/payment integrations have separate behavior described below.
| Storage | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| PHPSESSID | Session, account, cart and CSRF protection | Session |
| mdpubcc cookie and modusdom_public_cookie_consent_v2 local storage | Remember your public-page choice | Up to one year; a new policy version may ask again |
| mdcc cookie and modusdom_cookie_consent local storage | Existing choice storage used by transactional/account pages | Up to one year |
| Google Ads technology, when public measurement is accepted | Advertising measurement; Google may receive page, device and connection information and use cookies | Provider-defined; see Google's documentation |
| Optional Tawk chat, if configured and accepted | Third-party chat interface | Provider-defined |
Public-page advertising measurement
We use a consent-before-loading approach on public marketing pages: no Google Ads tag is requested before a valid choice to accept. Public tags configure advertising measurement with personalization disabled. We do not load a separate Google Analytics tag in this public integration.
See Google advertising technology information and Google consent-mode documentation for provider behavior. Optional chat, when available, connects to Tawk after acceptance; see Tawk's privacy policy.
Change or withdraw your choice
Rejecting after optional tags have loaded saves your new choice and reloads this public page to stop loading them. This does not undo information already processed or necessarily remove existing provider cookies. Your browser settings can remove stored cookies.
A Global Privacy Control browser/header signal keeps optional public tags off, including when a previous public preference was Accept all. Necessary session and preference storage remains available. If storage is blocked, you may be asked again.
Checkout, account and third-party services
The checkout retains its existing Google Ads purchase-conversion integration. The public-page choice described above does not change that checkout integration or its existing behavior. Stripe payment interfaces and Google/Microsoft/Apple sign-in also have provider-controlled technologies when used. See Stripe's cookie policy and the relevant sign-in provider's privacy information.
