Cookie Policy

When you make a choice on the cookie banner, we record it in your browser's local storage under the key cobalt-cookie-consent, with a value of either granted or denied. This entry contains no personal information — it exists solely so the site remembers your decision and the banner doesn't reappear on every visit. It stays in your browser until you clear your site data.

The site needs no other cookies or storage to function.

If — and only if — you choose Accept, the site loads Google Analytics 4, which helps us understand how the site is used (which pages are visited, how people move through them, roughly where visitors come from) so we can improve it. Nothing is loaded and no analytics request is made before you accept.

Once accepted, Google Analytics sets the following cookies:

• _ga — distinguishes one visitor from another; lasts up to 2 years
• _ga_[container id] — keeps count of visits and holds session state; lasts up to 2 years

Google Analytics runs here with Google's Consent Mode and all advertising signals switched off: accepting enables analytics storage only, while ad storage, ad user data and ad personalisation all remain denied. For details of how Google processes analytics data, see Google's privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy

• No advertising or remarketing cookies
• No social media tracking pixels
• No cross-site tracking of any kind

If that ever changes, this policy will be updated first and your consent asked again where the law requires it.

You can change your choice at any time using the Cookie preferences link in the footer of every page, which reopens the banner. You can also delete this site's cookies and site data through your browser settings, after which you'll be asked afresh on your next visit. If you withdraw consent, no further analytics data is collected; cookies already set can be removed via your browser.

If you have any questions about this policy or how we use cookies, contact us at sales@cobalt.so or call 01392 662600.
