5. Analytics & Performance Tracking
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to collect anonymised data about how visitors use our Website. GA4 uses IP anonymisation by default and does not identify individual users. The data collected includes pages visited, session duration, device type, geographic location (city level), and traffic source.
We also use Hotjar to generate heatmaps and session recordings. Hotjar automatically suppresses sensitive input fields (passwords, payment information) from recordings. You can opt out of Hotjar tracking at hotjar.com/opt-out.
6. Marketing & Advertising Cookies
We run paid advertising campaigns on Google, Meta, and LinkedIn. The cookies placed by these platforms allow us to:
- Measure conversions from our ads (e.g., when someone fills in a contact form after clicking an ad)
- Retarget visitors who have previously visited our Website with relevant ads on other platforms
- Build lookalike audiences based on our existing visitors and clients
- Optimise ad spend based on which audience segments convert best
If you have consented to marketing cookies, these platforms may share data with us for attribution purposes. We do not sell this data to any third party.
