Cookie and Storage Technologies Notice

Cookies are small text files stored by a browser. Similar technologies include local and session storage, pixels, SDKs, scripts, tags, link decoration, device identifiers, and embedded-content requests. They can remember information, enable features, measure use, protect security, or support advertising.

Strictly necessary: required for core operation, security, load balancing, form handling, fraud prevention, and recording privacy choices. These cannot usually be switched off through the banner.

Preferences and functionality: remember language, region, display, contact, and other optional settings.

Analytics and performance: measure visits, navigation, errors, page speed, and campaign sources so that WebCOSS can understand and improve the Website.

Marketing and social media: measure campaigns, build audiences, personalise advertising, or enable social-media and embedded-content interactions.

Non-essential technologies are used only after consent where consent is required. Limited analytics, security, or functionality technologies may qualify for a legal exception, provided the relevant conditions are met and users receive clear information and a simple means of objecting where required.

Rejecting non-essential technologies must be as easy as accepting them. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal.

The Website may use or link to Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Google Maps, YouTube, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, hosting and security services, and other tools. A link alone does not necessarily set a cookie, but embedded content or active scripts may transmit IP address, device, referrer, interaction, or identifier data to the provider. The banner should block non-essential embedded content until the appropriate choice is made.

Use the Website's cookie-settings control to accept, reject, or change optional categories. You can also delete or block cookies through browser settings, although this may affect features. Privacy choices may need to be made again after cookies are deleted, a browser or device changes, or the consent record expires.

Cookie duration varies from the browser session to the period shown in the live cookie inventory. Consent records may be retained for a reasonable period to demonstrate and respect your choice. WebCOSS should review technologies at least every six months and whenever plugins, analytics, marketing, maps, video, forms, or hosting change.
