About cookies

A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. Cookies can be used by web servers to identify and track users as they navigate different pages on a website and identify users returning to a website. Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies. A persistent cookie consists of a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, which will be stored by the browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date (unless deleted by the user before the expiry date). A session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed.

Our cookies

Here are details about the cookies we use:

  • SIVISITOR: This helps us count how many people visit fospha.com by tracking if you’ve visited before.
  • hubspotutk: This cookie keeps track of a visitor’s identity. It is passed to HubSpot on form submission and used when deduplicating contacts.
  • _hssc: This keeps track of sessions to determine if we should increment the session number and timestamps in the _hstc cookie. It contains the domain, viewCount (increments each pageView in a session), session start timestamp.
  • _hssrc: Whenever Hubspot changes the session, this cookie is also set. We set it simply to the value “1”, and use it to determine if the user has restarted the browser. If this cookie does not exist when we manage cookies, we assume it is a new session.
  • _hstc: This helps us track visitors. It contains: the domain, utk, initial timestamp (first visit), last timestamp (last visit), current timestamp (this visit), and session number (increments for each subsequent session).

  • _utmz: This tells us how you reached fospha.com.
  • _utmc: This calculates when you close your browser.
