Cookie Policy
Last updated: October 2026
This page explains which cookies and similar technologies (such as browser storage) BiochemNordic uses, which of them need your consent, and how to change your choice. For how we handle personal data in general, see our Privacy Policy.
Who sees the cookie bar
If you visit from the European Union, the European Economic Area (EU member states plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway), the United Kingdom or Switzerland, we ask for your choice with a cookie bar, and analytics stays off until you press Accept. We detect your country from your connection when the page loads, and we do not store it. If you visit from anywhere else, no bar is shown and analytics runs; you can still switch it off at any time with Cookie settings in the footer.
Necessary cookies (always on)
These keep the site working and cannot be switched off. They do not track you across other websites.
| Name | Purpose |
|---|---|
| auth_token, bn_session | Keeps you signed in to your account. |
| bn_offline_account | Lets your saved offline library open on this device. |
| cart (browser storage) | Remembers what is in your shopping cart. |
| bn_cookie_consent_v1 (browser storage) | Remembers your cookie choice. |
Stripe, our payment provider, sets its own necessary cookies on the checkout to process payments and prevent fraud. Google reCAPTCHA is loaded only when you use a form (for example the contact form) to protect it from spam.
Analytics cookies (only if you accept)
These help us understand which pages are useful. They load only after you press Accept (or if you are outside the regions listed above), and are removed if you later reject.
| Service | What it does |
|---|---|
| Google Analytics (cookies starting with _ga) | Counts visits and shows which pages and links are used. Advertising and personalisation storage stay denied. |
| Ahrefs Web Analytics | Counts visits and pages for our website statistics. |
| BiochemNordic page-view statistics | Our own record of pages viewed and clicks, using a random session ID kept in your browser tab only. |
Embedded videos
Videos from YouTube are not loaded until you click the play button. Only then is the video requested from YouTube's privacy-enhanced domain (youtube-nocookie.com), and YouTube's own policies apply to that video.
Changing your choice
Use here or in the footer of any page to open the cookie bar again and choose Accept or Reject. You can also delete cookies in your browser settings.
