This policy explains how the A & P Software Tech website at https://www.apsoftwaretech.com uses cookies and similar technologies. In short: we use only what’s strictly necessary, we don’t track you, and we don’t use analytics or advertising cookies.
Cookies and browser storage
Cookies are small text files that a website saves in your browser. Local storage is a similar browser feature that lets a website keep a small amount of information on your device. Both can be used for helpful things, such as remembering a choice you’ve made, or for tracking, such as following you across websites to show you ads. We use them only for the first kind, and only in one place.
What we use
The site stores a single item in your browser’s local storage:
- Purpose: it remembers that you’ve dismissed the cookie notice, so the notice doesn’t reappear on every page.
- What it contains: a simple value recording that the notice was dismissed. It contains no personal information and no identifier that could be used to recognize you.
- How long it lasts: until you clear your browser’s storage for this site.
- Who can access it: only this website, in your own browser. It isn’t sent to us or to anyone else.
Because this storage is strictly necessary for the site to work the way you’d expect, it doesn’t require your consent under rules such as the EU ePrivacy Directive and the UK’s Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations.
What we don’t use
- No analytics cookies or tools that measure how you use the site.
- No advertising or retargeting cookies.
- No social media tracking pixels.
- No cookies set by third parties for their own purposes.
Our pages don’t set any other cookies or browser storage.
How to clear or block it
You can remove the stored item, and any cookies, at any time through your browser settings. The exact steps vary by browser and change from time to time, but in general:
- Open your browser’s Settings and look for a section called Privacy, Privacy and security or similar.
- Choose the option to clear cookies and site data (sometimes called browsing data or website data). Most browsers let you clear data for a single site or for all sites.
- On a phone or tablet, the same options are in the browser’s own settings, or in your device’s settings for that browser.
- Private or incognito windows discard this kind of storage when you close them.
You can also set your browser to block cookies and site storage altogether. The site will still work, but the cookie notice may appear on every visit, because your choice can’t be remembered.
Changes to this policy
If we add analytics or any other non-essential cookies or tools in the future, we’ll update this policy before they go live and, where the law requires, ask for your consent before using them. The date shown on this page tells you when the policy was last updated.
