Cookie Notice

Last updated: 22 July 2026

This Cookie Notice explains how Paeveul uses cookies and similar technologies on this website (paeveul.com) — what each one does, how the cookie consent choice you make actually works, and how you can change your mind at any time. For information on who is responsible for your personal data more broadly, see our Privacy Notice.

What Is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. Cookies help websites function properly and help site owners understand how visitors use their site.

How Your Cookie Choice Works

When you visit this site for the first time — or if it has been more than 365 days since you last made a choice — a banner appears at the bottom of the page asking whether you accept or decline analytics cookies (Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity, described below). Neither of those two tools loads until you choose. This isn't a case of the tools running quietly in the background and merely staying silent — the scripts that load them are not present on the page at all unless you accept.

  • If you click Accept: Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity load, and we remember your choice for 365 days.
  • If you click Decline: neither tool loads, and we remember that choice for 365 days too.
  • Either way, your choice is remembered using a small first-party cookie of our own — see paeveul_consent in the table below.
  • After 365 days, that cookie expires. The next time you visit, it's treated the same as a first-ever visit: the banner reappears and you're asked to choose again. Nothing carries over indefinitely without being re-confirmed.

Malaysian law does not currently require a cookie consent banner for analytics-only tools like these. We built one anyway because we think visitors should have a clear, easy choice about it.

Cookies & Trackers Currently in Use

Cookie / technology Set by What it does Type Duration
paeveul_consent Paeveul (first-party) Remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics cookies. Stores only that choice — not any data about your visit. Strictly necessary 365 days
_ga, _ga_* Google Analytics 4 (third-party) — only loads if you accept Helps us understand how visitors use the site: pages viewed, time on page, referral/traffic source, device and browser type, and approximate location at city/country level. Analytics — opt-in Up to around 2 years (Google's standard GA4 setting; we have not customised this)
Clarity session cookies Microsoft Clarity (third-party) — only loads if you accept Records session activity (mouse movement, scrolling, clicks) and builds heatmaps showing how visitors interact with the site, so we can spot and fix confusing pages. Analytics — opt-in Set by Microsoft; not customised by us
_GRECAPTCHA Google reCAPTCHA v2 (third-party) Verifies that submissions on our enquiry and contact forms come from real people, not bots. Strictly necessary / functional Session, up to around 6 months
Font delivery caching Google Fonts (third-party) Not a cookie we set — see "Google Fonts" below. Functional Browser-dependent

Google Analytics 4 — What It Collects

If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics 4 collects standard web analytics: which pages you visit, how long you spend, what site or link referred you here, your device/browser type, and approximate location at city/country level (GA4 does not store your full IP address by default). It may also record specific interactions we've chosen to track, such as clicking a WhatsApp or email link. This data is processed by Google and may be transferred outside Malaysia as part of Google's standard infrastructure.

Microsoft Clarity — What It Collects

If you accept analytics cookies, Microsoft Clarity records how visitors move through and interact with our pages — including mouse movement, scrolling, and clicks — and aggregates this into heatmaps. This is more detailed than page-view analytics, because it can effectively show a replay of on-page behaviour. We are currently reviewing whether Microsoft's form-field masking is enabled so that anything you type into our contact form is excluded from these recordings; we will update this notice once that is confirmed. If you'd rather not have session activity recorded, declining analytics cookies (or declining specifically, if we later offer separate GA4/Clarity toggles) prevents Clarity from loading at all.

Functional Cookies — reCAPTCHA

Our enquiry and contact forms use Google reCAPTCHA v2 to verify that submissions come from real people, not bots. This cookie is required for the forms to work correctly and loads regardless of your analytics choice, because it's classed as functional/security rather than analytics or advertising. It does not track you across other websites and is not used for advertising.

Google Fonts — Third-Party Data Access

Our website loads fonts from Google's servers (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com) on every page. This isn't a cookie in the traditional sense — it's a network request needed to deliver the fonts. Each time a page loads, your IP address and browser information are sent to Google's servers for that purpose, and Google may set short-lived caching cookies via fonts.gstatic.com as part of standard browser caching. This isn't advertising or tracking; it's a technical characteristic of loading fonts from an external provider. For more information, see Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.

How to Change Your Cookie Choice

You can change your mind about analytics cookies at any time:

  • Clear your browser's cookies for paeveul.com. The next time you visit, the banner will reappear and you can make a new choice. Instructions:
    • Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
    • Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
    • Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
    • Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions
  • Google's own privacy controls let you manage how Google uses data collected via Analytics at myaccount.google.com/data-and-privacy.

Note: clearing cookies also removes the _GRECAPTCHA cookie, which may briefly affect our contact forms until a new one is set on your next visit.

We'll update this page whenever what we do with cookies changes. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
