Cookie policy
Last updated: 2 September 2026
What we use
One language setting, and nothing else. The code of this site sets no cookies and loads no analytics, advertising or cross-site tracking. What it does keep is this: when you read one of the national sites, the two-letter code of that site is written to local storage in your browser, so that the English site can offer you that language first instead of all four. It carries no identifier and no record of what you read, it is never sent to us or to anyone else, and clearing the site data for roofpruf.com in your browser removes it. Nothing else is stored, and session storage is not used at all. Separately from the application, the infrastructure serving these pages keeps the ordinary request metadata any web server keeps: hosting and security records, not a measurement product.
Why you are never asked to choose
A row of switches would be theatre when there is nothing behind them to switch off. The one entry we keep is the language you were already reading in, which is the kind of strictly necessary setting the ePrivacy rules exempt from consent, and which your own browser can clear whenever you want it gone. Nothing else is stored, so there is no choice to record, and we do not interrupt you to make one.
The enquiry form
While you fill the form in, your answers stay in the page — held in the memory of the open tab, written to no cookie, no local storage and no session storage, and gone when you close it. What happens when you press the button depends on how this site is deployed, and the button is labelled for whichever one applies. Where an enquiry handler is configured, the answers are sent to it from your browser over an encrypted HTTPS connection, and the form reports success only when that handler accepts them. Where none is configured, the form hands a pre-filled message to your own mail application instead: your own mail account sends it, and nothing reaches RoofPruf until you press Send there.
The map on the contact page
The contact page shows a static panel with our address and a "Show map" button. Nothing is requested from OpenStreetMap until you press it. If you do, the map is loaded from openstreetmap.org and their terms and privacy policy apply to that request.
If this ever changes
Optional cookies, analytics or embedded tracking would require your consent before anything was set. Were we to introduce any of it, this policy would be updated and a consent mechanism added first — not afterwards.
