1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Strat Consulting Limited ("we", "our", "us") uses cookies and advanced browser storage technologies when you visit our website or use our Software Services at stratconsulting.co.uk.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

2. What Are Cookies and Storage Technologies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device. In addition to traditional cookies, modern SaaS applications (like ours) utilize advanced browser storage technologies to improve performance, enhance security, and protect your privacy by keeping data on your device instead of our servers.

3. Types of Storage Technologies We Use

3.1 Essential Authentication Tokens (Local Storage)

ESSENTIAL - CANNOT BE DISABLED

When you log into our Software Services, we securely store JSON Web Tokens (JWT) in your browser's Local Storage or Session Storage. This is strictly necessary to keep you securely authenticated while using the application. This data is not used for tracking.

3.2 Local Browser Database Storage (IndexedDB)

PRIVACY ENHANCING - CORE APPLICATION FUNCTION

To support our "Zero-Data Retention" architecture, our applications utilize IndexedDB (a local database inside your browser). Instead of storing your application state, settings, or processed anomalies on our backend servers, this information is securely stored locally on your device. This ensures your data remains under your physical control. You can clear this data at any time by clearing your browser's cache and site data.

3.3 Analytics Cookies

ANALYTICS - CAN BE DISABLED

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously.

Note: We use Google Analytics with IP anonymization enabled to respect your privacy.

_ga Google Analytics Distinguishes unique users 2 years

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our site are set by third-party services. We have no control over these cookies and recommend reviewing the privacy policies of these third parties:

Google Analytics Website analytics View Policy

5. Your Choices and Browser Settings

You can control, delete, or block cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

Important: Deleting Local Storage or IndexedDB site data will log you out of our Software Services and may clear your locally saved application settings.

6. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology or legislation. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
