Cookies Policy

How we use cookies on our website, what they do, why we use them, and the choices you have.

This Cookies Policy explains how G7M uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website, what they do, why we use them, and how you can control them.

For information on how we handle your personal data more broadly, see our Privacy Policy.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, mobile, or other device by the websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, and to provide information to the owners of the site.

Cookies can be persistent or session. Persistent cookies remain on your device when you go offline; session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your browser.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for a small number of clearly defined purposes:

  • To make the site work, authenticating users, remembering basic state across pages, and securing access to certain features.
  • To remember your preferences, choices you make (language, display options) so you don't have to re-enter them on every visit.
  • To understand how the site is used, aggregated, anonymised analytics that help us improve content and performance. We do not use this data to identify you personally.

We do not sell your data.

G7M does not sell, share, or pass cookie data to data brokers or marketing partners. Analytics data is used by us to improve the site, and is configured to anonymise IP addresses and to opt out of Google Signals and ad personalisation. If we add advertising or retargeting tools in the future, this page will be updated before they go live.

Types of Cookies We Use

Analytics

Aggregate, anonymised counts of how the site is used, pages visited, time spent, approximate region, plus session recordings with sensitive content masked. Used only to improve content and performance. See Third-Party Cookies below for details.

Third-Party Cookies

We use a small number of third-party tools to operate the website and understand how it is used. These tools may set their own cookies on your device, governed by their own privacy policies:

  • Google Tag Manager by Google. Loads and manages the analytics tags listed below. It does not set tracking cookies on its own.
  • Google Analytics 4 by Google. Aggregate, anonymised traffic and behaviour measurement. Configured with IP anonymisation enabled and Google Signals plus ad personalisation disabled.
  • Microsoft Clarity by Microsoft. Aggregate session recordings and heatmaps used to improve usability. Sensitive content is masked by default.
  • Content delivery, font hosting, and embedded video players strictly necessary to display the site.

We do not currently embed advertising or retargeting pixels. If this changes, this page will be updated before any such tool is enabled.
