Last updated: June 2026

Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how AURALOGICAL LTD ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website at https://auralogical.guru. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal data.

By continuing to browse or use our website, you consent to our use of cookies in accordance with this policy, unless you have adjusted your browser settings to refuse cookies or have withdrawn consent through our cookie preference mechanism where available.

We are committed to transparency about the technologies we use and to giving you meaningful control over non-essential cookies. This policy explains what cookies are, which cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, enable certain functionality, and supply information to website owners about how their site is being used.

Cookies can be 'session cookies' which are deleted when you close your browser, or 'persistent cookies' which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ('first-party cookies') or by third parties whose services are embedded in the website ('third-party cookies').

In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies including web beacons (also known as pixel tags), local storage objects, and software development kits (SDKs) in our software products. References to 'cookies' in this policy include these similar technologies unless otherwise stated.

Categories of Cookies We Use

We classify the cookies used on our website into the following categories based on their purpose and the legal basis for their use.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the operation of our website. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, secure area access, form submission, and load balancing. Without these cookies, services you have requested cannot be provided. These cookies do not collect information that identifies you personally and are exempt from consent requirements under PECR.

Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, including which pages are visited most frequently, how long visitors spend on each page, error messages encountered, and the paths visitors take through the site. This data is aggregated and anonymised where possible. We use this information to improve website performance, content relevance, and user experience. These cookies require your consent.

Functionality Cookies

These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make, such as language preferences, region settings, and display preferences. They provide enhanced, more personalised features and may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. These cookies require your consent.

Marketing and Targeting Cookies

These cookies may be set through our site by advertising partners. They may be used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. These cookies require your consent.

Specific Cookies Used

The following table describes the specific cookies that may be used on our website. This list may be updated periodically as we modify our website or the services we use.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our website are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control the dissemination of these cookies. Third-party providers may include analytics services such as Google Analytics, which helps us understand website traffic and usage patterns; embedded content providers such as Google Maps, which sets cookies when you view our office location map; and font delivery services such as Google Fonts, which may collect usage data.

We select third-party providers carefully and require them to handle data in accordance with applicable data protection law. However, when you interact with third-party content on our website, your data may be processed according to the third party's own privacy policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third-party providers.

Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about how visitors use our site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google uses this information to evaluate website usage and compile reports. We have configured Google Analytics to anonymise IP addresses and to respect Do Not Track signals where technically feasible.

Managing Cookie Preferences

You can control and manage cookies in several ways. Most web browsers allow you to manage cookie preferences through their settings. You can typically find these settings in the 'Options', 'Preferences', or 'Settings' menu of your browser. Browser settings allow you to block all cookies, accept only first-party cookies, delete existing cookies, or set preferences for specific websites.

Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of our website. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled without impacting core site functionality. If you block performance or analytics cookies, we will have less information to improve our website and services.

For Google Analytics specifically, you can opt out by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. You can also manage Google ad personalization through Google's Ad Settings at adssettings.google.com.

On mobile devices, you may manage cookies through your device settings or the settings within specific applications. Refer to your device manufacturer's instructions for guidance on managing cookies on mobile platforms.

Cookie Retention Periods

Session cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for varying periods depending on their purpose. Strictly necessary cookies typically expire within one year. Analytics cookies are generally retained for thirteen to twenty-six months. Functionality cookies may persist for up to twelve months. Marketing cookies may persist for up to ninety days unless you clear them manually.

We review our cookie usage regularly and update retention periods as necessary to ensure data is not kept longer than required for its stated purpose.

Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our business practices. The updated policy will be posted on this page with a revised date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies.

If you have questions about our use of cookies, please contact us at it@auralogical.guru or +44 7378 336699.

Our website team conducts quarterly reviews of all cookies and tracking technologies deployed across auralogical.guru. During each review, we assess whether each cookie remains necessary for its stated purpose, whether less intrusive alternatives are available, and whether retention periods remain appropriate. Any cookies that are no longer required are removed promptly. We maintain an internal cookie register documenting the name, provider, purpose, category, duration, and legal basis for each cookie used on our website, which is updated whenever changes are made to our cookie deployment.

Consent Management

When you first visit auralogical.guru, you may be presented with a cookie consent mechanism that allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies by category. Your preferences are stored in a strictly necessary cookie so that we can remember your choices on subsequent visits. You may change your preferences at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site, or by contacting us at it@auralogical.guru.

We record consent decisions including the date, time, and categories accepted or rejected, in accordance with ICO guidance on demonstrating consent. Consent records are retained for three years following the last interaction.

Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a 'Do Not Track' (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity tracked. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. We configure our analytics tools to respect DNT where technically supported, but we do not guarantee that all tracking will be disabled in response to DNT signals.

Cookie Audit and Compliance

Our development team conducts regular audits of all cookies deployed on auralogical.guru to ensure compliance with PECR and UK GDPR requirements. New cookies are assessed for necessity, proportionality, and appropriate legal basis before deployment. Any third-party service integrated into our website is evaluated for its cookie practices before adoption.
