Cookie Policy

About this notice

1.1. This notice explains how our websites use cookies and similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage. It applies to every website run by DOS & Co. Ltd. and its brands.

1.2. A cookie is a small file a website stores in your browser so that it can recognise the browser later. Local storage does the same job without being sent back to the website.

Your choices

2.1. We only use cookies and storage that need your consent once you have given it. On our sites, your choices are recorded by our consent tool, Cookiebot, or through their own cookie banner.

2.2. You can change or withdraw your choices at any time through "Cookie settings" at the foot of every page. A withdrawal takes effect straight away.

2.3. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block all cookies, parts of our websites may not work.

The cookies and storage we use

Strictly necessary

3.1. These are needed for our websites to work, so they do not need your consent.

• Your consent choices. Cookiebot stores them in a cookie called CookieConsent for up to 12 months. Our other websites store them in your browser's local storage.
• A sign-in hint. If you sign in to one of our client portals, the portal sets a cookie called dos_hint for 30 days. It lets our websites show you a link back to your portal. It does not sign you in or give access to anything.

Preferences

3.2. These remember choices you make on our websites, such as light or dark appearance and the type of visitor you told us you are. They are kept in your browser's local storage until you clear it.

Statistics

3.3. We count visits and see how visitors move around our websites using our own measurement tool, a page speed measure and, on some of our websites, Plausible. None of these stores anything on your device that identifies you.

3.4. With your consent to statistics cookies, some of our websites also use Google Analytics, which sets cookies whose names begin with _ga for up to two years. With the same consent, when we test a change to a page, we remember which version you saw so that you see the same one on your next visit.

Marketing

3.5. These are used only with your consent.

• Recognising you on later visits. Our measurement tool stores a cookie called ic_pid for two years so that it can recognise your browser and, if you send us your details, link your visits to you. You consent to this by accepting marketing cookies, or by sending a form that shows our consent statement.
• Salespanel, which tells us which organisation a visit comes from and sets its own cookies.
• Pipedrive LeadBooster, our website chat, which sets its own cookies to keep a conversation open.

3.6. The cookie settings on Cookiebot-served sites list each of these cookies by name, with its provider and how long it lasts.

Withdrawing consent

4.1. To withdraw any consent, open "Cookie settings". Declining marketing cookies there, or clearing the data our website has stored, also withdraws a consent you gave by sending a form and removes the ic_pid cookie.

Changes to this notice

5.1. We will update this notice when the cookies we use change. The version and the date it took effect are shown at the top.
