Cookies and browser storage

Updated: 10.2026

This page sets out what the site stores in your browser and what it sends to our server.

In short: without your consent the site stores only what it needs to work and counts visits anonymously — with no cookies and no identifier. A cookie with a random visitor number appears only with your consent.

This page describes the actual state of the code, not a generic template.

Visit counting without consent

To see which pages and topics visitors find interesting, the site records simple actions on our server: opening a page, opening the chat or the enquiry form, sending the form, going to WhatsApp and the choice made in the cookie banner.

Each such record holds only the type of action, the page, the language, the kind of source — Google, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, direct visit or other — and the page you entered the site on. The record contains no IP address, no identifier and no cookie. The full address you came from is not sent.

To connect your entry to what happens next, the tab’s sessionStorage keeps two words: the kind of source and the entry page (key geo-src). They are erased when you close the tab.

This counting works whatever you choose in the banner, including “Necessary only”.

What turns on only with consent

After “Accept all”, a visit counter loads from our subdomain admin.geomedical.co.il. It stores a cookie named gm_vid with a random visitor number for 13 months, and a visit number in sessionStorage (gm_sid), to tell a returning visit from a new one.

The counter sends our server the page address, the address you came from, campaign tags (utm), the language and actions on the page — scrolling, opening the chat, tapping WhatsApp and sending a form. No IP address is kept in these records, and the data is not passed to anyone else.

With “Necessary only” the counter does not load, and if the gm_vid cookie already exists, the site deletes it.

You can change your choice at any time.

What is stored in your browser

The table lists every value the site writes. There are no others.

Every value the site stores in your browser

Key What it stores Where How long
geo-lang The interface language you chose localStorage until you clear the site data
geo-theme Light or dark theme localStorage until you clear the site data
geo-a11y Accessibility settings: text size, contrast, greyscale, link highlighting, readable font, large cursor, stopped animations, reading guide localStorage until you clear the site data
geo-cookie The choice you made in the banner localStorage until you clear the site data
geo-ai-notice-2 A mark that you read the notice before chatting with Michal localStorage until you clear the site data
geo-ai-token Permission to chat with Michal after the notice sessionStorage 2 hours or until the tab is closed
geo-ai-session The number of your conversation with Michal in this tab sessionStorage until the tab is closed
geo-agentAuto A mark that the assistant has already opened by itself in this tab (dentistry page) sessionStorage until the tab is closed
geo-chat-auto The same mark on the home page sessionStorage until the tab is closed
geo-src Kind of source and entry page — two words for visit counting sessionStorage until the tab is closed
gm_vid Random visitor number for the counter — only after “Accept all” cookie 13 months, or until you choose “Necessary only”
gm_sid Visit number for the counter — only after “Accept all” sessionStorage until the tab is closed

localStorage persists until you clear the site data in your browser. sessionStorage disappears on its own when the tab is closed. Your browser sends the gm_vid cookie only to our own domains, geomedical.co.il.

Two more values exist only on GEO Medical staff devices: the geo-owner mark in localStorage and the gm_notrack cookie. They keep our own checks out of the count.

Older keys that delete themselves

Before the two parts of the site were unified, some settings were stored under different names. On the first visit after the update the values are moved to the new names and the old keys are deleted. The site no longer writes to them.

The site no longer writes or reads the keys geo-leadQueue, geo-a11y-lang and geo-weather-tbilisi. If they are left over from earlier versions, they are removed together with the site data.

  • dental.theme
  • dental.lang
  • dental.leadQueue
  • dental.privacyOk
  • dental.a11y
  • dental.agentAuto
  • geo-mobile-theme

What the site does not do

There is no Google Analytics, no advertising pixels and no ad networks.

There are no third-party loads: fonts, code and images are served only from geomedical.co.il and our subdomain admin.geomedical.co.il. Your browser does not contact Google’s servers or any other provider’s.

Counting and counter data are not passed to anyone else.

How to delete

Clearing the site data in your browser settings removes all of these values. They can also be removed one by one in the browser developer tools, under the Application tab.

Deleting resets the language, theme, accessibility settings and banner choice — the site will open as if this were your first visit and will ask about cookies again.
