Storage used on this website
The website currently uses the following first-party storage. It does not currently use advertising pixels, audience analytics cookies or embedded advertising-platform widgets.
| Name and type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
PivotAlis:cookie-preferencesLocal storage · essential
|
Remembers whether you allow optional navigation storage, together with the choice date and policy version. Saved only after you choose an option. | Valid for 180 days from your last saved choice. After expiry, the record is removed when the website next checks it and you are asked again. You can delete it sooner through your browser settings. |
agency_formSession cookie
|
Connects your browser to the audit form’s security session to protect against forged submissions. Created when the audit form connects to the server. The cookie contains a session identifier, not your form answers. | Session cookie: normally removed when the browser session ends. Browser session restore may preserve it. The server’s form token expires after one hour. |
PivotAlis:anchor-navigationSession storage · optional
|
Remembers the page and section you selected so navigation can continue smoothly after the destination page loads. | Read and removed on the destination page. An unused value remains in the tab’s session storage; navigation ignores values older than one minute. |
PivotAlis:page-transitionSession storage · optional
|
Passes the destination, time and motion preference between pages for a smooth page transition. | Read and removed on the destination page. An unused value remains in the tab’s session storage; transitions ignore values older than one minute. |
Tab session storage normally clears when the tab is closed, although browser restore features can preserve it. These navigation values do not contain your audit form answers and are not used to profile you.
Form security and server records
The form cookie is marked HttpOnly, so page scripts cannot read it, and SameSite=Strict to restrict cross-site use. It is marked Secure when served over HTTPS.
The server also uses a hashed IP-based record to limit repeated form requests. This record is stored on the server, not in a cookie. Website hosting may generate access and error logs. See the Privacy Policy for retention information.
Your choices
On your first visit, choose “Essential only”, “Allow all” or open the settings to choose navigation storage separately. Optional navigation storage stays off until you allow it. Use in the footer or here to change your choice at any time. Turning navigation storage off removes its existing values.
Your choice is remembered for 180 days on this browser and website. If your browser blocks saving preferences, the choice applies only to the current page and the banner will appear again on another page or visit.
You can delete cookies and site storage or block cookies in your browser’s privacy settings. Blocking the form cookie may prevent an audit request from being submitted. You can still browse the public pages or contact us by email.
If navigation storage is declined or unavailable, links remain usable and transitions may be less smooth. Your device’s reduced-motion setting disables navigation animation.
There are currently no advertising or audience analytics cookies to opt into on this website. If we introduce technologies that require consent, we will provide the required choice before activating them. The privacy acknowledgement in the audit form does not give consent to advertising cookies.
Third-party websites
Following an external link takes you to a separate website. That site may set its own cookies and use other technologies under its own policies. Mentioning Google Ads, YouTube or Analytics on our service pages does not itself activate those services’ tracking on this website.
Updates and contact
We update this policy when the storage used by the website changes. The date above identifies the current version.
