This Cookie Policy explains what cookies we use on https://sgbp.tech, what data they collect, and how you can control them. Read alongside our Privacy Policy for the full picture.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help sites remember things about your visit (preferences, login state, what you've clicked) and allow operators to measure how the site is used. Some cookies are set by the website itself ("first-party") and some by other companies ("third-party").
2. Cookies SGBP uses
We use the minimum cookies needed to operate the site. Here's the full list:
2.1 Strictly necessary (always on)
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
sgbp:lastSector | SGBP (sessionStorage, not a cookie technically) | Remembers which sector page you visited so source pages can show a "Back to your sector" link. | Session (deleted when you close the tab) |
sgbp:cookieConsent | SGBP (localStorage) | Records whether you accepted, rejected, or dismissed our cookie banner so we don't show it again. | 12 months |
These are small browser-storage values rather than HTTP cookies. They never leave your device and contain no personal information.
2.2 Analytics (privacy-friendly, no consent required)
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| None | Plausible Analytics | We use Plausible, which is cookieless. It uses no client-side cookies and stores no personal data. Read why → | — |
2.3 Advertising / measurement (consent required)
The cookies below are only loaded after you click "Accept" on our cookie banner. They are currently inactive on the site — they will activate when our ad campaigns go live. You can withdraw consent at any time via the banner or by clearing your browser storage.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
_fbp, _fbc | Meta (Facebook Pixel) | Measures whether our Meta ads led to a meaningful action on the site (page view, booking modal opened, WhatsApp click). | 90 days |
_ga, _ga_* | Google (GA4) | Measures site usage and which pages convert. Used to attribute Google Ads if we run any. | 2 years |
2.4 Third-party content cookies (when you actively engage)
Some of our pages embed content from third parties. These set their own cookies when you interact with them.
| Service | When triggered | Cookies | Their policy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calendly | When you click "Book free 30-min call" and the booking iframe opens. | Calendly's own cookies (booking session, attribution) | Calendly Privacy → |
| WhatsApp / Meta | When you click the "WhatsApp us" link, WhatsApp's web/desktop app may set cookies. | Meta cookies as per their policy | WhatsApp Privacy → |
3. Your choices
3.1 Cookie banner
On your first visit to https://sgbp.tech you will see a cookie banner with two options:
- Accept — allow advertising / measurement cookies (Meta Pixel, GA4) when they activate. We save your choice for 12 months.
- Reject — block those cookies. Strictly necessary + privacy-friendly Plausible analytics still work.
To reset your choice, clear your browser's site data for https://sgbp.tech and refresh the page — the banner will appear again.
3.2 Browser controls
All modern browsers let you block cookies. See your browser's help docs:
3.3 Ad-platform opt-outs
To opt out of personalised ads at the platform level:
- Meta Ad Preferences
- Google My Ad Center
- LinkedIn Ad Settings
- DAA Consumer Choice (US)
- Your Online Choices (EU)
4. Do Not Track
We honour the legacy "Do Not Track" header by treating it as an automatic rejection of advertising cookies. We do not load the Meta Pixel or GA4 if your browser sends DNT.
5. Updates
When we add or remove cookies, we update this page. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent change. If we add a category that requires fresh consent, we will re-show the cookie banner.
