This Cookie Policy describes the cookies and browser-storage technologies used on swort.net, what each one does, and how you can control them. It supplements our Privacy Policy.
1. What these technologies are
Cookies are small files a site stores in your browser. Local storage is a similar browser mechanism that keeps small values on your device. Tags and pixels are scripts or requests that let a provider record that something happened, such as a page view or a conversion.
2. Categories we use
- Necessary. Required for the site to work and to keep it secure. These cannot be switched off.
- Functional. Remember choices you make, such as your cookie preferences.
- Analytics. Help us understand aggregate site usage. Off unless you allow them.
- Advertising. Measure advertising effectiveness and may involve identifiers shared with an advertising provider. Off unless you allow them.
3. Current inventory
The following reflects the technologies implemented on this website. We do not list technologies we have not observed or would not expect from this configuration.
| Name or category | Provider | Purpose | Type | Duration | Necessary |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
swort_consent | SWORT (first party) | Stores your cookie-consent choices and the policy version they applied to | Local storage | Until you clear it or change your choices | Yes (functional, required to honor your choice) |
swort_rl_* | SWORT (first party) | Short-lived marker that limits repeated form submissions from one browser | Local storage | Rolling 1 hour window | Yes |
| Operational security and delivery | Cloudflare | Serving the site, routing, and protecting against abuse | Cookie or request metadata | Set by Cloudflare | Yes |
| Google Ads tag and associated advertising identifiers | Measuring advertising effectiveness and conversions | Script, cookies, identifiers | Set by Google | No, loads only after you allow advertising | |
| Font delivery requests | Google Fonts | Serving the typefaces used on the site. Involves your IP address and request metadata but does not set advertising cookies | Request | Not applicable | Yes for presentation |
We do not currently run a separate analytics product on this website. If we add one, it will appear in this table and will be gated behind the Analytics category.
4. Advertising and Google
We use a Google advertising tag to measure whether our advertising is effective. It does not load until you make a consent choice, and it stays off if you reject non-essential technologies. Before any choice is made, we instruct Google's consent framework to treat advertising storage, advertising user data, advertising personalization, and analytics storage as denied.
Setting a consent signal in Google's framework is a technical control. It is not the same thing as your consent. Your consent is the choice you make in our Cookie Preferences panel.
5. Your choices
You can accept all technologies, reject everything that is not necessary, or choose categories individually. Use the control here or in the footer of any page. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time, and withdrawing consent stops future loading of the affected technologies.
6. Global Privacy Control
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we default advertising and other non-essential categories to off and we do not silently override that signal. You may still open Cookie Preferences and make your own selection.
7. Browser-level controls
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies and clear local storage in their settings. Doing so may reset your saved cookie preferences, in which case we will ask again. Blocking all storage may affect features that rely on remembering your choices.
8. Rejecting non-essential technologies
Rejecting non-essential technologies does not break the website. Navigation, the project intake form, booking, the careers application, and all legal pages continue to work normally.
9. Changes
We will update this page when we add, remove, or change a technology. The effective date and last-updated date appear at the top.
