1. Introduction
Welcome to Virtarix. Our commitment to protecting the privacy and security of our customers' information is paramount. This Privacy Policy details our practices in handling your personal information.

- Cookies and Tracking Technologies: We employ cookies and similar technologies for tracking service activity and storing certain information.
2.1. Cookies, Consent, and Optional Tools
On German pages (/de/ and child pages), Virtarix asks for consent before loading optional third-party tools. If you choose Deny all, we store that refusal in a single first-party cookie named vx_cookie_consent with a status value of denied, the selected categories, a timestamp, a consent ID, and the policy/banner version shown at the time of choice.
- Required storage:
vtx_geokeeps currency display consistent,vx_cookie_consentstores your cookie choice, and first-party_vx_*sessionStorage keys support anonymous first-party analytics continuity. - Virtarix behavior analytics: our internal Clarity replacement uses first-party
_vx_*sessionStorage plus server-side first-party event records for page views, product clicks, scroll depth, heatmaps, JavaScript errors, and session recordings when enabled. Virtarix does not load the former third-party Clarity script through the consent system and does not create its legacy tracking cookies. - Optional Google Analytics/Tag Manager: if configured and permitted, Google Analytics/Tag Manager may set
_ga,_ga_*,_gid,_gat*, and_gcl_*after analytics consent on consent-required pages. - Optional support chat: Tawk.to may set visitor/chat identifiers such as
__tawkuuidandTawkConnectionTimeonly after support-chat consent on German pages. - Consent proof: we keep a server-side consent event containing the consent ID, status, selected categories, policy/banner version, page path, timestamp, and hashed/anonymized request metadata. We do not log the raw IP address in the consent event.
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time by using the Cookie-Einstellungen / cookie settings link in the footer on German pages.
