Cookie Policy
Last updated: 22 May 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how Affinui uses them, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, improve performance, and provide information to website owners. Cookies cannot run programs or deliver viruses to your device.
Similar technologies - such as local storage and session storage - work in the same way and are also covered by this policy.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
- Essential / strictly necessary - To operate the website and platform. These cannot be disabled as they are required for core functionality such as security and session management.
- Analytics - To understand how visitors use our website - which pages are popular, where users come from, and how they navigate. This helps us improve the site. These are only set with your consent.
- Preferences - To remember choices you make, such as your cookie consent decision. These improve your experience on return visits.
We do not use cookies for advertising, retargeting, or tracking you across third-party websites.
3. Essential cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually only set in response to actions you take, such as logging in or submitting a form.

4. Analytics cookies
These cookies are set only when you give your consent via our cookie banner. They help us count visits, understand traffic sources, and measure how pages perform - all in a way that does not directly identify you.

| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique users by assigning a randomly generated number as a client identifier. | 2 years |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics | Persists session state and is used to maintain and track visits. | 2 years |

Google Analytics data is processed by Google Inc. For more information, see the Google Privacy Policy.
5. Third-party cookies
Our website may include links to third-party websites and services (such as the Affinui publisher platform at trackdesk.com). Those websites may set their own cookies when you visit them. We have no control over third-party cookies and they are not covered by this policy. We encourage you to check the cookie policies of any third-party sites you visit.
6. Managing your cookie preferences
You have several options for controlling cookies:
Via our cookie banner
When you first visit the site, you will see our cookie consent banner. You can choose to accept all cookies or essential cookies only. You can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser's local storage (this will reset your choice and show the banner again on your next visit).

- Essential cookies - Legitimate interest (necessary for the service to function)
- Analytics cookies - Consent (collected via our cookie banner)
- Preference cookies - Legitimate interest (remembering your consent choice)
8. Changes to this policy
