How to set request parameter to be avaiable within a session if the session is reset for some other reason

String reqParam=request.getParameter("param");

    if(reqParam!=null){
          HttpSession session=request.getSession(false);
          if(session!=null){
            session.setAttribute("reqParamInSession", reqParam);
          }
    }

I use the code above to set a request parameter value into a session when a doFilter method is called. But when the user navigates to a different experience(assume a user that manages three different branches of a shop will have separate experience for each branch) the session is cleared other than the user profile. I don't manage the module that resets the session when the user experience is changed. But I still need the parameter I set in session even if the user has changed experience.

Is there a way to associate the parameter to every request sent regrdless of the session being changed? Or any other way to handle this?

Dont' use application scope as if the session is closed for any reason the params won't be cleared. Use cookies if you can.
