What we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you have.
We count page views, pages read, time on a page, broad location, device type, source, clicks, form steps and page speed. We use this data to improve the site and understand which research people need.
Known bots, signed-in editors, Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track visitors are left out. Internet addresses are shortened before storage. Raw visit rows are kept for up to 400 days.
If you choose “Allow analytics cookies”, we set two first-party cookies. acuitas_vid is a random visitor code kept for one year. It lets us count returning visitors. acuitas_consent saves your choice for one year. A short session code may also be kept until the browser closes, so we can see a visit’s path from one page to another.
If you choose “No thanks”, no analytics visitor cookie is set. We still count the page without a lasting identifier. You can reopen Cookie settings in the footer.
When you send a contact, sample, order, careers or newsletter form, we keep the details you entered. We also keep the landing page, source and pages read during that visit when analytics cookies are allowed. We use this to answer the request and understand which pages led to it.
We do not sell personal data. We do not use advertising cookies.
You can refuse analytics cookies. You can also delete site cookies in your browser. To ask for your form or newsletter data to be removed, email [email protected].
The site uses Cloudflare for security and delivery, GoDaddy for hosting, and Google Workspace for email. Their systems may process technical data needed to provide those services.
Questions about privacy can be sent to [email protected].
