Cookies Policy
What cookies this website uses, why, and how you stay in control of them.
The short version
- We use Google Analytics, a tool that counts visits, only if you click Accept.
- If you decline, nothing from Google Analytics is loaded or stored.
- We do not use advertising or social-media tracking cookies.
- You can change your choice at any time.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Some are needed for a site to work; others, such as analytics cookies, help the site owner understand how the site is used. Similar technologies, such as your browser’s local storage, work in much the same way and are covered here too.
2. What we use
| Name | Purpose | Type | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| mt_cookie_consent | Remembers whether you accepted or declined cookies, so we do not ask on every page. | Necessary (local storage on this site) | Until you clear it |
| _ga | Google Analytics: tells returning visitors apart so visits can be counted. | Analytics, only after you accept | Up to 2 years |
| _ga_6CQ6KHFS8B | Google Analytics: keeps track of the current visit (session). | Analytics, only after you accept | Up to 2 years |
Google Analytics is provided by Google. It gives us counts such as pages viewed, rough location (country or city level), device and browser type, and how visitors arrived. It also counts how far people get through our project enquiry form (for example, which step they reached and the service type they picked). We never send your name, email, phone number or budget amount to Google Analytics. We use it to improve the site, and we do not use it to identify you personally. We have not turned on advertising features or data sharing for advertising. Google’s own explanation is at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
3. Your choice
When you first visit, a banner asks you to Accept or Decline. Declining is as easy as accepting, and the site works the same either way. You can reopen your choice at any time:
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you delete them, we will ask again on your next visit. Google also offers a browser add-on that opts you out of Google Analytics on every site.
4. Changes to this policy
If we add or change the cookies we use, we will update this page and, where the law requires it, ask for your consent again. See also our Privacy Policy.
