Cookie policy
This page explains the cookies, browser storage and external services used by Falcon Trading's website, and the choices you have.
Your choices
Necessary only keeps the features required to operate the website. Accept all enables analytics and the external map. You can also select either service separately and choose Save my choices. Optional services stay off until you allow them.
Open Cookie preferences in the footer to change your choice at any time. Rejecting optional content does not prevent you from reading the website or sending us a message.
Necessary cookies and storage
| Item | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
Site session cookie, normally falcon-trading-session |
Connects requests to the same browser session. It supports form validation, returned input and authenticated sessions. The name can differ between environments. | Normally two hours after the last request; the configured session lifetime controls expiry. |
XSRF-TOKEN |
Helps check that form requests belong to the current browser session, reducing forged submissions. | Normally two hours; follows the session lifetime. |
falcon-privacy-v3 in local storage |
Remembers your separate choices for analytics and maps. This is browser storage rather than a cookie. | Until you change your choice, clear the site's browser data or we request a new choice after a policy change. |
These items are not switched off by the optional-cookie controls. You can block or delete them in your browser, but forms or sign-in may then stop working.
Form verification: Cloudflare Turnstile
Contact and project-brief forms use Cloudflare Turnstile when configured. The browser performs a check and our server validates its token before accepting a submission. This verification remains available with necessary-only settings.
A Turnstile token is not a cookie. Cloudflare's optional pre-clearance configuration can also issue a cf_clearance cookie; whether it is issued and its lifetime depend on the Cloudflare configuration. See Cloudflare's clearance documentation and privacy information.
Optional website analytics: Swetrix
With your permission, we use Swetrix through Falcon's analytics endpoint at stats-api.ft.ro to understand which public pages are visited and improve the website. The tracking script is downloaded from swetrix.org only after you enable Website analytics or choose Accept all.
Each page view includes the page path, browser language, time zone and the referring site's origin, when available. The analytics endpoint also receives the IP address and browser information that accompany the request. Our integration excludes URL query strings, fragments, page titles and form contents. We use page-view statistics without session recordings, advertising profiles or analytics cookies.
The script host receives the network information needed to deliver its script. We send that script request without a referrer. Analytics reports are handled through our own Swetrix instance. Contact [email protected] for questions about this processing or stored reports.
You can allow analytics separately from the map. Turning analytics off prevents further page views; information already received remains subject to our privacy policy. We also leave analytics off when the browser sends Do Not Track (DNT: 1).
Optional external content
OpenStreetMap provides the interactive office map. It loads only when you allow External map, accept all services or explicitly choose to load the map. Loading the map alone leaves your analytics choice unchanged. Loading it sends requests to OpenStreetMap, which can receive your IP address and browser/request information. Read the OpenStreetMap Foundation privacy policy for its handling of this information.
Directions links open a separate provider only when you click them.
Changing or removing your choice
Use Cookie preferences in the footer, then choose Necessary only to stop analytics and optional embedded content. You can also change each service separately and save your choices. This does not remove data already received by an external provider or cookies that provider has already stored; browser settings let you clear that data.
If browser storage is blocked, your selection applies to the current page visit and may be requested again on the next page.
We update this page when the website's use of cookies or optional services changes and request a new choice when the scope changes. Questions about this page can be sent to [email protected].
