Cookie Policy
Every cookie and storage item this website can use, when it is set, and how to change your mind. Last reviewed 2026-09-23.
1. The short version
Until you accept advertising measurement, this website sets no advertising or analytics cookie at all. Nothing is loaded from Microsoft, and no third-party script is present in the page. The only things stored are the record of your own choice and, when you open a form, a security token.
2. Strictly necessary storage
These are required for the site to work and to evidence your consent choice, so they do not require consent under the ePrivacy rules. They are all first party.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| berihime-consent-v1 | Local storage (first party) | Stores your cookie choice so the banner is not shown again, and so we can evidence the choice you made. | Until you clear it or change your choice |
| fr_csrf | Cookie (first party, session) | Security token that proves a form submission came from this site. Set only when a form is opened, never for reading pages. | 2 hours |
3. Advertising measurement — only if you accept
Berihime Studio may advertise on Microsoft Advertising. If you accept advertising measurement, the Microsoft Universal Event Tracking (UET) tag is loaded and may set the cookies below. If you reject, or make no choice, the tag is never requested and none of them exist.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| _uetsid | Cookie (bat.bing.com) | Microsoft UET session identifier — measures whether a visit came from a Microsoft Advertising campaign. | 1 day |
| _uetvid | Cookie (bat.bing.com) | Microsoft UET visitor identifier used for campaign measurement across visits. | 16 days (Microsoft default) |
| MUID | Cookie (Microsoft) | Microsoft browser identifier, used for measurement and fraud prevention. | Up to 13 months (Microsoft default) |
For this measurement, Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited acts as an independent controller. Its handling of the data is described in the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
4. Microsoft Consent Mode v2
We implement Microsoft Consent Mode v2. In practice that means three things, all of which you can verify in your browser’s network tab:
- A same-origin file
/consent-defaults.jsruns in the page head, before the application, and pushesuetq('consent', 'default', { ad_storage: 'denied' }). The denied default is therefore set before any tag could possibly load. - Accepting pushes
'consent', 'update', { ad_storage: 'granted' }and only then isbat.bing.com/bat.jsrequested for the first time. - Rejecting pushes the same update with
denied, and nothing is requested from Microsoft at all.
The consent state is a separate file rather than an inline script so that the site can run under a Content Security Policy that does not permit inline scripts.
5. Changing or withdrawing your choice
Use the button below, or the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of any page. Withdrawing is exactly as easy as giving consent, and it changes nothing about what you can read or use here.
You can also delete cookies in your browser settings. Deleting the stored choice simply means the banner asks again on your next visit.
6. What we do not use
No Google Analytics or other third-party analytics, no advertising pixel other than Microsoft UET after consent, no social plug-in, no chat widget, no content delivery network and no externally hosted font. Fonts are served from this domain, so no request leaves it to render a page.
