Cookie Policy
This page explains how Cerdik Code uses cookies on our website, what each type does, and how you can control your preferences. We aim to keep this straightforward and honest.
Last Updated: 20 May 2025
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They allow the site to remember information about your visit — for example, whether you have accepted our cookie notice, or which language you prefer.
Cookies are widely used and generally harmless. They cannot run programmes or carry viruses. Most can be deleted or blocked through your browser settings, though doing so may affect how some parts of a site work.
2. Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
Always active
These cookies are necessary for the website to function. They handle things like your cookie consent record and basic security. They cannot be disabled.
Examples: cookieConsent (localStorage), session security tokens.
Analytics Cookies
These help us understand how visitors use the website — which pages are visited most, how long people stay, and where they come from. This information helps us improve the experience over time. All data is aggregated and anonymous.
Examples: Google Analytics (_ga, _gid). Typical duration: up to 2 years.
Marketing Cookies
These cookies allow us and our partners to show you relevant information about our programmes after you leave our site. If you prefer not to see such content, you can disable these without affecting your access to any of our materials.
Examples: Ad platform identifiers. Typical duration: 30–90 days.
Preference Cookies
These remember your settings so you do not have to reconfigure them on each visit — for example, your chosen language or display preferences.
Examples: Language preference, interface settings. Typical duration: 1 year.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our site are set by third-party services we use. We do not control these directly; they are governed by the privacy policies of those providers.
- Google Analytics — website usage statistics
- Google Maps — embedded map on our contact page
- Social media platforms — if you interact with share buttons
- Advertising networks — if marketing cookies are enabled
4. Cookie Duration
Cookies fall into two duration categories:
- Session cookies — exist only while your browser is open. When you close the browser, these are automatically deleted.
- Persistent cookies — remain on your device for a set period (typically between 30 days and 2 years) or until you delete them manually. The exact duration for each cookie is noted in the sections above.
