Cookie Policy

How cookies are used on this website, what categories we set, and how to manage your preferences.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They serve a range of purposes — from keeping your session active while you browse our smart lock catalogue to measuring how effectively a product page communicates the features of a keypad entry system. Verge Path Field uses cookies on vergepathfield.com to ensure the site works correctly, to understand which content is most useful to visitors, and — where you consent — to provide you with relevant information about our access control systems and installation services in Tokushima-shi and surrounding areas.

Categories of Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the operation of our website and cannot be switched off. They are set in response to your actions — for example, when you navigate from our product overview to a specific smart lock category page, or when you submit a contact form to request a security assessment. These cookies carry no personally identifiable information and expire at the end of your browser session.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with vergepathfield.com. Data is collected in aggregate and anonymised form — it shows us which access control product pages attract the most attention, which entry points lead visitors to get in touch, and how long visitors typically spend reviewing installation guides. This helps us improve the site's structure and the clarity of our product information. No individual visitor is identified through analytics data.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember choices you make during your visit — such as a product category filter you applied when comparing biometric versus keypad lock options. These cookies allow us to provide a more consistent experience on return visits. They do not track you across other websites and expire after a defined period.

Marketing Cookies

With your consent, we may use marketing cookies to deliver content about our smart lock and access control products that is relevant to your interests. These cookies may be placed by advertising platforms we partner with and track browsing across websites. You can opt out of marketing cookies at any time through the consent tool displayed on this site or through your browser settings.

Third-Party Cookies

Some pages on vergepathfield.com embed content from third-party providers — including mapping services showing our Tokushima-shi coverage area and video demonstrations of our product range. These third parties may set their own cookies when their content loads. Verge Path Field does not control third-party cookies; please consult each provider's own cookie or privacy policy for full details of their practices.

Cookie Retention at a Glance

  • Session cookies — deleted automatically when you close your browser.
  • Analytics cookies — retained for up to 13 months before automatic expiry.
  • Functional preference cookies — retained for up to 12 months.
  • Marketing cookies — vary by provider; typically 30 to 90 days.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

When you first visit vergepathfield.com, a consent notice gives you the option to accept all cookies, choose specific categories, or decline non-essential cookies. Your preferences are stored and honoured on subsequent visits. To change your preferences at any time, clear your browser's cookies or update cookie permissions in your browser settings.

Please be aware that disabling all cookies may affect website functionality, including the ability to submit an enquiry for a security installation.

Cookies and Japanese Privacy Law (APPI)

Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI, 個人情報の保護に関する法律) applies where cookie data can be linked to an identifiable individual — for example, a returning visitor associated with a prior product enquiry or site survey request. Where this is the case, Verge Path Field treats that data as personal information and applies APPI protections: we collect only the minimum necessary data, retain it for a defined period, and do not share it with third parties without a lawful basis. For full details of how we handle personal data, please read our Privacy Policy.

Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may revise this Cookie Policy as our website and services evolve or as legal requirements in Japan change. Any update will be published on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Where the change is significant — such as introducing a new cookie category — we will display a refreshed consent notice to returning visitors.
