Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how AHANIX WEB DESIGN LIMITED may use cookies, local storage, session storage, and similar technologies on this website. It should be read alongside the Privacy Policy.

Cookies are small text files placed on a device when a person visits a website. They can help a website function, remember preferences, measure performance, support security, or enable additional services.

AHANIX uses strictly necessary cookies for consent and site operation. Optional categories may include preferences, analytics/performance cookies, functionality storage, and marketing consent signals. Optional categories only run when the visitor allows them through the cookie consent centre.

Strictly necessary cookies may be used because they are required for the website to work. These may support page delivery, security, form submissions, session handling, consent choices, or basic site functionality. They are not normally optional because the website may not operate correctly without them.

Current strictly necessary cookie: ahanix_cookie_consent, used to remember the visitor's cookie choices.

Preference cookies may be used to remember optional display or site choices beyond the required consent record. These are controlled by AHANIX WEB DESIGN LIMITED.

Analytics cookies may be used to understand visits, popular pages, referrals, performance, and how visitors interact with page layouts. AHANIX uses Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights for these purposes. Optional analytics services are not rendered until analytics consent has been granted through the cookie consent centre.

Current analytics cookies may include _ga, _ga_*, _gid and related Google Analytics signals, plus Microsoft Clarity cookies _clck and _clsk when analytics consent is granted. Google Consent Mode and Microsoft Clarity Consent Mode are set to denied by default until the visitor grants the relevant consent.

Functionality cookies or browser storage may support enhanced website features such as the floating AHANIX Assistant, contact forms, quote tools, or support features. Some functionality may be provided by third parties and may be subject to their own terms and privacy notices.

Marketing consent allows campaign attribution and advertising-related Google consent signals. Current marketing cookies or identifiers may include _gcl_*, _gcl_au and Google campaign identifiers where present. These are denied by default until marketing consent is granted.

If the AHANIX Assistant, estimate builder, or similar interactive tools are enabled, session storage, local storage, or cookies may be used to remember conversation state, form progress, consent choices, or temporary preferences. The subtle desktop website-review reminder stores a dismissal timestamp for 14 days and a session-only shown flag so it does not repeatedly appear, but only when the visitor has allowed the Preferences category. Users should not submit passwords, payment card details, sensitive personal data, or confidential business secrets into website assistant tools.

Third-party services may set cookies or similar technologies where they are used for hosting, analytics, embedded content, forms, security, AI/chat features, payment tools, maps, video, fonts, or other integrations. Current optional Google partners shown in the consent centre include Google Analytics, Google Tag, Microsoft Clarity, Vercel Analytics, Vercel Speed Insights and Google Ads consent signals, depending on the visitor's choices.

Users can accept all optional categories, reject optional categories, or manage categories in the cookie consent centre. The Privacy Settings button remains available on the website so visitors can reopen and change their choices.

Users can usually block, delete, or manage cookies through their browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect website functionality, form operation, saved preferences, or embedded tools.

AHANIX may update this Cookie Policy when cookies, analytics, tracking technologies, website assistant features, third-party tools, or legal requirements change.
