What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your computer or phone when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your preferences, and sometimes to collect information about how a site is used.
This policy explains which cookies the ISO Management Consultants Ltd website uses and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
The cookies we use
We keep cookies to a minimum. This website does not use advertising cookies, and it does not use cookies to track you across other websites.
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are needed for the website to work and to keep it secure. They do not identify you personally and cannot be switched off. Our website runs on WordPress, which sets the following cookies only for people who log in to manage the site; ordinary visitors do not receive them.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| wordpress_test_cookie | This website | Checks that the browser accepts cookies when someone logs in | Session |
| wordpress_logged_in_*, wordpress_sec_* | This website | Keeps site administrators logged in securely | Session, or up to 14 days |
| wp-settings-* | This website | Remembers administrators’ dashboard settings | 1 year |
Every visitor receives one more strictly necessary cookie, set when you answer the cookie banner:
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| iso_consent | This website | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics cookies, so we do not ask again on every page | 6 months |
Our contact forms and the administrator login are protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, a security check that tells people from automated bots. It runs only when you use a form, it is there to keep the website secure, and it is not used for advertising or tracking.
Analytics cookies (only if you accept)
If you press Accept analytics on the cookie banner, we use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are read, so we can improve the website. The information is statistical and we do not use it to identify you. Nothing is set until you accept, and you can change your mind at any time.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Tells one visitor from another so visits can be counted | Up to 2 years |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics | Keeps the state of your current visit | Up to 2 years |
Third-party cookies
Our Contact page can show a map supplied by Google Maps. The map does not load until you press Show map. When it loads, Google may set its own cookies and receive information such as your IP address. We do not control these cookies. Google explains how it uses them in its cookie policy.
Links to our Google reviews take you to Google’s own website, where Google’s cookie policy applies.
How to control cookies
You can change your analytics choice at any time using the Cookie settings link at the bottom of every page. Rejecting, or changing your mind, removes the analytics cookies from your browser.
You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Each browser does this differently, so check its help pages:
Blocking cookies will not stop you from reading this website, although the map on our Contact page may not display.
You can find out more about cookies at ico.org.uk.
Changes to this policy
If we change the cookies we use, we will update this policy and, where the law requires it, ask for your consent before setting them.
