Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how caxyinteractive.digital uses cookies and similar technologies. It describes what cookies are, the categories we use, and how you can manage them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which covers how we handle personal information more broadly.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit, such as your preferences or how you navigated the site. Similar technologies, including local storage and pixels, work in comparable ways. We refer to all of these collectively as "cookies" in this policy.

A cookie on its own is not a program, and it cannot run code or read other files on your device. It usually holds a short label set by the site you are visiting plus a value, and it is stored by your browser so the site can look it up on a later request. Some cookies expire when you close the browser; others stay until a date the site sets or until you clear them.

We describe cookies separately from the rest of our privacy practices because the two documents answer different questions. This page covers the files stored in your browser and the choices you have over them. The Privacy Policy covers names, email addresses, and other personal information you send us, how long we keep it, and how to ask us about it.

The files a site stores in your browser stay small, and every storage mechanism we group under "cookies" works the same way — a label and a value your browser keeps for a later visit.

Why we use cookies

Keeping the site working and readable

We use cookies to keep the website functioning properly, to understand how visitors use the site, and to improve the content we provide. For example, cookies help us see which pages are visited most, whether visitors encounter errors, and how people reach the site. This information is used in aggregate and is not sold.

Site function

A cookie can hold a submitted form so your work is not lost while you move between pages. It can also carry a security marker that confirms a request made in your own session.

Usage insight

Analytics tells us which service and industry pages people read, where they leave, and where they run into an error. We read totals and trends, not individual journeys.

Content repair

When a set of pages is rarely read or frequently abandoned, we rewrite, merge, or retire it. Cookie data is one input in that editing work, never the only one.

Our own code also underpins websites, web applications, enterprise software, and digital platforms for clients. Cookie behaviour on caxyinteractive.digital is measured the same careful way we measure it in that work — collect what answers a question, keep nothing that does not.

Set by other providers

Third-party cookies

Some cookies may be set by third-party services we use to operate and analyze the website. These providers have their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review. We do not control the cookies set by third parties, but we choose providers with reasonable privacy practices.

In practice that means two kinds of requests can leave our page and reach a provider: the analytics service that records a page view, and any embedded service that has to load its own files to render. Each provider sets what it needs for its own function, and its policy explains what it does with that data and how long it keeps it.

We review the list of providers we rely on from time to time, and we prefer tools that offer a clear description of retention and a straightforward way to opt out. If we stop working with a provider, its cookies are dropped from this page in the next policy update.

Before you decide

Read the cookie notice of any service you are unsure about. Your browser can also block third-party cookies entirely, though that may stop some embedded content from appearing at all.

How to manage cookies

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block all cookies, block third-party cookies, or delete cookies after each session. The exact steps vary by browser. If you disable cookies, some parts of the website may not work as intended, including form submissions that rely on session data.

Block or delete

Open your browser's settings, find the section for privacy or site data, and choose whether to block cookies, keep them only for the current session, or remove what is already stored on your device.

Use private windows

A private or incognito window starts with a clean store and clears it when the window closes. It is a quick way to check how the site behaves when nothing has been remembered from an earlier visit.

Expect changes

With cookies off, a form may reset between pages, a preference may not be remembered, and some embedded content may not load. The readable parts of the site — services, process, and case studies — stay available either way.

Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting that sends a signal to websites. There is no common industry standard for how to respond to these signals, so the site does not currently act on them. You can still manage cookies through your browser settings as described above.

We will revisit this position if a common standard is adopted and it becomes possible to honour the signal in a consistent way. Until then, the block-and-delete controls in your browser are the reliable tool, and they apply to every site you visit, not only this one.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy if we change the cookies we use or the providers we work with. Updates will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We recommend checking this page periodically for changes.

When we update

The effective date at the top of this page always shows the current version. A change in cookie categories, in the providers we rely on, or in the choices you can make is what prompts an update here.

What has not changed

The categories above — strictly necessary, analytics, and preference — describe how the site works today. A revision would say plainly which category was added, removed, or renamed.
