Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 15 May 2025
This page explains how the Saka website uses cookies and similar technologies, what each type of cookie does, and how you can manage your preferences. We want you to feel in control of your experience on our site.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites function properly, remember your preferences, and help website owners understand how their site is being used.
Cookies do not contain personal information on their own, and they cannot run programs or deliver viruses. They are simply a way for a website to remember things about your visit.
We use cookies to keep our website working well, to understand how visitors use it, and — where you have agreed — to improve the relevance of information we show you.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies (Always Active)
These cookies are required for the website to function. Without them, features like navigation and form submission would not work. They cannot be switched off, as they are set in response to actions you take — such as filling in a form or setting your cookie preferences.
- Purpose: Session management, security, and saving your cookie choices.
- Duration: Session (deleted when you close your browser) or up to 12 months for preference storage.
Analytics Cookies (Optional)
These cookies help us understand how visitors move through our website — which pages are visited most, and where people tend to arrive from. This helps us improve the website over time.
- Provider: Google Analytics
- Purpose: Counting page visits, understanding traffic sources, identifying popular content.
- Duration: Up to 2 years.
Marketing Cookies (Optional)
These cookies track your browsing activity to help deliver content and advertisements more relevant to you and your interests.
- Purpose: Advertising personalisation, remarketing, and conversion tracking.
- Duration: Up to 90 days.
Preference Cookies (Optional)
These cookies remember choices you make on the website so that we can provide a more personalised experience on future visits.
- Purpose: Language settings, display preferences, region.
- Duration: Up to 12 months.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services. These are governed by the privacy policies of those providers, not ours. Third-party services that may set cookies include:
- Google Analytics — website usage analysis (analytics.google.com)
- Google Maps — embedded maps used on our contact page
- Meta (Facebook) — where advertising pixels are active (optional)
We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie policies of these providers if you have specific concerns.
4. Cookie Duration
Cookies we use fall into two categories based on how long they last:
- Session cookies — exist only while your browser is open. They are deleted automatically when you close your browser tab or window.
- Persistent cookies — remain on your device for a set period (ranging from 30 days to 2 years, depending on purpose) or until you delete them manually.
5. Your Cookie Preferences
