VEC / STORAGE CONTROL
Cookies and storage choices keep the handoff traceable.
This notice has a working date
This cookie and storage notice took effect on September 29, 2026. It explains what the website stores in a browser, what paid advertising identifiers mean here, and where to change a choice later.
VEC uses essential storage for the site's operation and handles optional analytics and advertising storage only according to the visitor's choice. A construction drawing review inquiry can still be sent when optional storage is refused.
Storage categories have different jobs
Strictly necessary. This covers the consent record under site_consent_v2, the support chat token needed to return to a conversation, and storage required for the page's basic controls. It is not an advertising preference.
Analytics. Optional measurement helps understand how visitors use the site and whether a construction coordination support landing page is useful. It is disabled until the visitor allows analytics storage.
Advertising. Optional attribution relates to Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising and Meta Ads. It can connect a permitted visit to a campaign identifier. It is disabled until the visitor allows the relevant advertising storage.
The register names each site-controlled key
| Item | Who sets it | Purpose | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
site_consent_v2 | VEC site | Stores the visitor's optional storage choice so the banner does not ask on every page. | 12 months |
| Chat token | VEC site and chat route | Lets the support chat resume the conversation in the visitor's browser. | While the conversation can be resumed |
gclid | Google Ads | Identifies a Google Ads click in a landing URL for permitted attribution. | Landing URL duration; no site-controlled lifetime is set |
msclkid | Microsoft Advertising | Identifies a Microsoft Advertising click in a landing URL for permitted attribution. | Landing URL duration; no site-controlled lifetime is set |
fbclid | Meta Ads | Identifies a Meta Ads click where a campaign runs there. | Landing URL duration; no site-controlled lifetime is set |
| Analytics storage | Configured analytics route | Provides optional measurement of how visitors use the site. | Configured period when allowed; no fixed site period is stated |
The platform register can include storage controlled by the relevant advertising or analytics provider when the visitor allows it. VEC does not invent provider cookie names or exact lifetimes that its configuration has not confirmed.
Campaign identifiers explain the visit source
This site receives paid traffic today from Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising and Meta Ads. The google ads route and the microsoft advertising route are named here only to describe the advertising sources. Google Ads attaches gclid to a click, Microsoft Advertising attaches msclkid, and Meta may attach fbclid where a campaign runs there. The identifiers are not a payment route and do not submit an inquiry by themselves.
VEC does not claim that Google, Microsoft or Meta reviewed, approved or verified this website. Construction document coordination remains an inquiry-only service.
Consent Mode v2 starts from denied signals
Consent Mode v2 holds ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization and analytics_storage denied until the visitor allows the relevant storage. On decline, or when the visitor withdraws, those signals are set back to denied. Denied consent does not claim that no network traffic exists; it controls permitted storage and data use.
The consent update is passed to the site's tag integration through its consent event. The site does not create site-controlled tracking storage on a denied choice.
The choice can be changed from every footer
The banner offers Settings, Decline optional storage and Allow optional storage with equal access. Choose Settings in the footer under Cookie settings to revisit the decision. The same control is available after leaving the banner, so withdrawal does not require clearing a browser by hand.
Where browser storage is available, the choice is kept under site_consent_v2 for 12 months. If storage is unavailable, the page remains usable and the preference may need to be stated again on a later visit.
Declining leaves the useful parts running
Declining optional storage leaves the pages, navigation, contact details, inquiry form and essential support handling available. The support chat can use its token to resume a conversation. Optional analytics and advertising storage remain denied, and attribution identifiers are not used in form source values where consent has not permitted that use.
Declining does not block the page or force a payment choice. There is no account, checkout, card collection or paid transaction on this site.
