Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Consultmates UK ("we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on www.consultmates.com, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
Your cookie settings
You can review or change your choices at any time.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage and session storage, work in a similar way. In this policy we call all of them "cookies".
Under UK law (PECR), we may only use cookies that are not strictly necessary if you agree to them.
2. The cookies we use
Strictly necessary
These are needed for the website to work and cannot be switched off. They do not identify you personally.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| cm-cookie-consent | Local storage | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies | Until you clear it (we ask again after 12 months) |
| cm-cookie-prefs | Local storage | Stores your detailed cookie settings and the date you chose them | Until you clear it (we ask again after 12 months) |
| cm-intro-seen | Session storage | Remembers that you have seen the welcome screen, so it is not shown again on every page | Until you close the browser tab |
Analytics (optional)
With your consent, we use analytics to understand how many people visit the site and which pages they view, so we can improve it. Our website host provides basic visit statistics. We do not use these to identify you.
Marketing (optional)
We do not currently use marketing or advertising cookies. If we add them in the future, for example to measure advertising, they will only be used if you have switched on "Marketing" in your cookie settings, and we will update this policy.
3. Third-party services
- Google Fonts supplies the fonts on this site. Google receives your IP address when the page loads but does not set cookies for this.
- WhatsApp: if you click a WhatsApp link, you leave our site and WhatsApp's own cookie and privacy policies apply.
- Partner websites we link to have their own cookie policies.
4. How to manage cookies
You can change your choices at any time with the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of every page, or with the button at the top of this page. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, some parts of the site may not work properly, and we will ask for your cookie choice again on each visit.
Useful guidance on managing cookies is available at ico.org.uk.
5. Changes and contact
We may update this policy if the cookies we use change. If you have any questions, email hello@consultmates.com.
