1. What cookies are
Cookies are small pieces of information stored on, or accessed from, a user's device when a website is visited. Similar technologies may perform comparable functions. Some technologies are necessary for a website or requested service to work; others may be used for analytics, personalisation or marketing.
2. Current public-website approach
This policy is drafted on the basis that the public WebStaffSolutions website uses only technologies that are strictly necessary for core website operation, security or user-requested functionality, unless and until optional analytics, marketing or other non-essential technologies are deliberately introduced.
3. Categories of cookies
| Category | Purpose | Consent |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary / technical | Security, session handling, authentication, load balancing, storing user-requested settings and functions required to deliver a service expressly requested by the user. | Normally not required where the applicable exemption conditions are met. |
| Analytics | Understanding how visitors use the website and improving performance. | May require consent unless configured so that it qualifies for an applicable technical-cookie-equivalent exemption. |
| Preference / functional | Remembering optional choices or features beyond what is strictly necessary. | Depends on the technology and applicable law; consent may be required. |
| Advertising / profiling | Tracking users, building profiles or delivering personalised advertising. | Consent required before use where applicable. |
4. Cookie list
The public homepage currently does not intentionally deploy advertising or profiling cookies in this template. Product portals and authenticated applications may use technical session or security cookies necessary for login and application operation. Those applications should maintain a product-specific inventory where appropriate.
Because the actual cookie set can change with server configuration or third-party integrations, the production website should be periodically checked and this table updated with the exact cookie name, provider, purpose and duration.
5. Your choices
If non-essential cookies are introduced, users should be offered a clear way to accept or reject them before they are stored or accessed where consent is required. Consent should be capable of being withdrawn as easily as it was given.
You can also manage cookies using your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of a website or application from functioning correctly.
6. Third-party services
Links to third-party websites do not themselves mean that those third parties place cookies through WebStaffSolutions. If embedded content or third-party scripts are introduced, their use and associated technologies should be assessed and disclosed here.
7. Contact and updates
