Cookie Policy

AudienceForge uses cookies and similar technologies on audienceforge.one. This policy explains what they are, how we use them, and your choices under PIPEDA-aligned consent practices.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help remember preferences, maintain security, and — with consent — understand aggregated usage patterns.

Our approach

AudienceForge stores essential cookies so this workshop site functions reliably. Optional analytics help us understand which research pages visitors explore. Nothing loads for measurement until you accept or customise preferences. You may withdraw consent anytime via browser settings or our Cookie Policy.

Cookie categories

Essential cookies — Required for site operation, form security, and storing your cookie consent choice. These cannot be disabled while using the site.

Analytics cookies — Optional. Help us understand page visits and navigation paths in aggregated form. Loaded only after you choose Accept all or enable analytics in Customise.

We do not use advertising or social media tracking pixels before consent.

Storage duration

Consent preferences stored in localStorage until cleared. Session cookies expire when you close the browser. Analytics cookies may persist up to 14 months when enabled.

Managing preferences

Use the site cookie banner: Accept all, Reject all, or Customise. You may clear site data in browser settings to reset choices. Rejecting analytics does not affect essential functionality.

Third parties

Analytics providers, if enabled, process anonymised or pseudonymised data under contract. We review subprocessors for reasonable security practices.

Do Not Track

We honour our consent banner choices. Browser Do Not Track signals are not uniformly supported; use banner controls for definitive preferences.

Updates

We may revise this policy. Check the date above for the latest version.

Workshop analytics scope

When enabled, analytics aggregate page views and scroll depth on service descriptions — not form field contents.

Consent withdrawal

Email [email protected] to request deletion of analytics identifiers linked to your visit where technically feasible.

Browser controls

Most browsers allow blocking all cookies; essential site functions including consent memory may not work if storage is fully disabled.

Cookie audit log

AudienceForge maintains an internal list of cookies and localStorage keys used on audienceforge.one. Summaries available on request to enterprise privacy reviewers.

Changes after consent

If we introduce new non-essential cookies, we will update this policy and request fresh consent before activation where required.
