The Invisible Infrastructure: A Cookie Technical Dossier
Cookies are the silent scaffolding of modern web applications. This document breaks down their function, scope, and our specific deployment on uplixo.pro—because transparency is a feature, not a footnote.
Essential & Analytical Cookies
At Uplixo.pro, we operate with a minimalist data footprint. The cookies deployed on this domain are strictly categorized, aligning with our core engineering principles: efficiency, security, and user sovereignty.
1. Session & Functionality (Essential)
These are the load-bearing walls. They maintain your session state, remember form inputs (like a contact message draft), and secure authentication flows. No user tracking, no analytics—just the mechanics of a working website. They expire when you close your browser or after a brief, hard-coded period (typically 24 hours for session persistence).
uplixo_session: Secure, HTTP-only identifier for your current visit.csrf_token: Prevents cross-site request forgery on forms.
2. Performance & Diagnostics (Analytics)
We host our own lightweight analytics—no third-party trackers. A single, first-party cookie (`_plxa_p`) collects anonymized metrics: page load times, 404 errors, and feature interaction events. This data is aggregated and retained for 30 days, helping us optimize the site's speed and reliability. This is not marketing data; it is engineering telemetry.
Visual Evidence
The actual implementation is server-side. Cookies are generated, signed, and validated upon every request, minimizing client-side footprint.
No Advertising Trackers
Uplixo.pro does not use third-party advertising cookies, pixels, or trackers. Your visit here does not contribute to any behavioral advertising profile.

GDPR & User Control
As Uplixo.pro is based in Turkey, we align with GDPR principles for user data sovereignty. All non-essential cookies are blocked by default until explicit consent is given via the global consent manager (handled outside this page). You can change these settings at any time through your browser or via the site's preference panel.
A Tech-Savvy Parent's Review
"I checked the network tab. No external calls. The only cookies were a session ID and a performance tag. I cleared them, and the site still worked. No hidden tracking, no consent banners fighting me. It felt clean." — This is the standard we build to.
Operational Flow: A 90-Second Walkthrough
Landing on uplixo.pro
No cookies are set. The page is static HTML. A single, anonymous request is made for the initial HTML document.
Clicking "Contact"
Upon landing on the contact page, the server generates a secure session cookie (`uplixo_session`) and a CSRF token. This enables the contact form to function correctly.
Interacting with Navigation
If you scroll down the page, a performance cookie (`_plxa_p`) is set (with consent) to log page view duration and identify potential bottlenecks in the layout loading.
Closing the Session
When the browser is closed, all session cookies expire. Performance data is aggregated (anonymized) and the stored cookie is deleted after 30 days.
Governance & Contact
Our Data Protection Officer (DPO) reviews all data collection mechanisms quarterly. If you have concerns about how cookies are used on this site, or wish to exercise your right to access or erasure, please contact us directly.
