Analytics cookies
We use Google Tag Manager (GTM-WQMSBFZS) and Google Analytics to understand which pages people visit and how they find us, so we can improve officebats.com. They load only after you click Accept in the cookie banner, and never on share links (/d/) or while an app hands sign in over to OfficeBats.
| Name | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|
cookie_consent | Remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics cookies. | 12 months |
_ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics: tells visits apart and counts pages viewed. Set only after you accept. | Up to 2 years |
Change your choice at any time with Cookie settings in the footer. Declining removes the analytics cookies. You can also use the Google Analytics opt out add on.
Cookies in the Bats apps
Each app sets its own session cookie when you sign in to it with your OfficeBats account. Where an app uses analytics, it loads them only after you accept them in that app's cookie banner, and never on signing links, shared files or forms that other people fill in. Sites you publish with Buildan.app use visitor statistics without cookies.
