Cookie Policy

We believe in privacy-first design. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.

1. About This Policy

This Cookie Policy applies to www.novaparent-surrogacy.com, operated by Private Entrepreneur Andrii Khodonovych, registered in Ukraine, with office at Lukyanivska 69/71, Kyiv. Registration No. 2659202114310 (registered 21.09.2020).

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences and analyze how the site is used. Similar technologies — such as local storage and session storage — perform the same function but store data within your browser rather than as separate files.

This Cookie Policy covers cookies and all similar tracking technologies used on our website.

3. Categories of Cookies We Use

3.1 Strictly Necessary (always active)

These are essential for the website to function. They do not require your consent under GDPR.

• Cookie consent preference — stored in localStorage (key: np_cookie_consent). Remembers your choice from our cookie banner. Lifetime: until you clear your browser data.
• Session storage — temporary data for the duration of your browser session. Deleted when you close the browser.

3.2 Functional / Performance (with your consent)

Help us deliver a fast, modern website. These require your consent.

• Google Fonts — we use Cormorant Garamond and DM Sans, loaded from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. Google may receive your IP address as part of font requests. Lifetime: cached by your browser according to its settings.
• Cloudflare CDN (planned) — content delivery and DDoS protection. Cloudflare may set a __cf_bm cookie (bot management, 30 minutes) and process IP addresses. Cloudflare Privacy Policy

3.3 Analytics (with your consent)

Help us understand how visitors use our site. We use only privacy-focused analytics — no advertising integration.

• Microsoft Clarity (planned) — anonymous usage patterns, heatmaps, and session recordings. Does not track you across other websites. Sessions are anonymized; sensitive form fields are automatically masked. Microsoft Clarity Privacy Notice
• Bing Webmaster Tools / Google Search Console — server-side verification only, no client-side cookies on your browser.

3.4 Security (with your consent)

• Cloudflare Turnstile (planned) — privacy-respecting CAPTCHA alternative used on our contact form to prevent spam and bot submissions. We do not use Google reCAPTCHA. Cloudflare Turnstile

3.5 What We Do NOT Use

• ❌ No advertising or marketing pixels — no Facebook Pixel, Google Ads tracking, LinkedIn Insight Tag, or similar
• ❌ No retargeting / remarketing — we do not follow you around the web with ads
• ❌ No Google Analytics — we use Microsoft Clarity instead
• ❌ No Google Tag Manager
• ❌ No social media tracking pixels on our pages
• ❌ No data sale — we do not sell or share cookie data with advertisers, data brokers, or third parties for marketing
• ❌ No cross-site tracking — we respect Brave, Safari ITP, and Firefox Enhanced Tracking Protection

4. Your Cookie Consent

When you first visit our website, our cookie banner gives you a clear choice:

• Accept essential — only strictly necessary cookies are used. The site works fully.
• Decline non-essential — only strictly necessary cookies are used. The site works fully. No analytics, no functional cookies beyond what's needed for the site to load.

Your choice is stored in your browser's local storage and respected on every subsequent visit. If you decline non-essential cookies, the website will still work fully — you will not see any reduced functionality.

5. How to Withdraw or Change Your Consent

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time. There are three ways to manage cookies:

1. Clear your browser data — clearing cookies and local storage for our website will reset your consent preference; the cookie banner will appear again on your next visit.
2. Browser settings — all major browsers let you block, delete, or limit cookies. Visit your browser's help menu for instructions:
   • Chrome
   • Firefox
   • Safari
   • Edge
   • Brave
3. Email us — contact email loading… for help.

6. Do Not Track (DNT) and Global Privacy Control (GPC)

If your browser sends a Do Not Track signal or Global Privacy Control signal, we automatically treat that as a request to decline all non-essential cookies, regardless of your previous preference.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies on Linked Websites

Our website may contain links to external websites (for example, partner privacy policies). When you follow such a link, our Cookie Policy no longer applies. Please review the cookie practices of any third-party site you visit.

8. Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the EU/EEA or UK, the GDPR gives you specific rights regarding cookies and tracking technologies:

• The right to consent freely, specifically, and in an informed way before any non-essential cookie is placed
• The right to withdraw consent at any time, as easily as you gave it
• The right to access information about which cookies we use
• The right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

For full details on data protection rights, see our Privacy Policy, Section 11.

10. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use or in applicable law. The updated date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last revised. Continued use of our website after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
