Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners about how users interact with their sites.

statemisjq Ltd uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our website, analyse website traffic, and support our marketing efforts. This policy explains what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use four main categories of cookies on our website:

Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function properly and cannot be disabled. They enable basic functions like page navigation, access to secure areas, and cookie consent management. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. We use Google Analytics to gather insights about website usage, popular pages, and user behaviour patterns. This information helps us improve our website and services.

Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation, such as remembering your preferences, language settings, and other customisations you have made. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.

Marketing/Advertising Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests. They may be used by advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. We use Google Ads and other advertising platforms to reach potential clients with relevant marketing messages.

Specific Cookies We Use

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services that we use:

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website. Google Analytics sets cookies to collect information about website usage, which helps us improve our site. The information collected is anonymous and includes data about pages visited, time spent on the site, and traffic sources.

Google Ads

We use Google Ads for advertising and remarketing purposes. Google sets cookies to show you relevant advertisements based on your interests and previous visits to our website. These cookies also help us measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.

Google Fonts

We use Google Fonts to display custom fonts on our website. Google may set cookies when loading these fonts to optimise the service and gather usage statistics.

Google Consent Mode v2

We implement Google Consent Mode v2, which allows us to respect your cookie preferences while still providing basic website functionality. When you adjust your cookie settings, we communicate your preferences to Google services, ensuring that tracking and advertising cookies are only used with your consent.

This technology allows us to:

• Respect your privacy choices across all Google services
• Provide basic analytics without personal data when consent is not given
• Ensure advertising cookies only function with your explicit consent
• Maintain website functionality regardless of your cookie preferences
