1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make sites work, to remember preferences, and to give site owners information about how their site is used.
2. Cookies we use
This website is deliberately built to use as few cookies as possible. At present it sets no analytics, advertising or tracking cookies of any kind. The only information we store on your device is the record of your own cookie choice, described below.
- Strictly necessary — needed for the site to work and to remember the choice you make in our cookie banner. Under the ePrivacy rules these do not require consent. We currently store a single item,
bgc-consent, in your browser's local storage; it holds nothing but your choice and the date you made it, and it never leaves your device. - Analytics — would help us understand how visitors use the site. Not in use. If we introduce analytics, they will load only after you have given consent.
- Marketing — used to measure or deliver advertising. Not in use, and we have no plans to place advertising cookies on this site.
3. Third-party resources
Our pages load typefaces from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). Google Fonts does not set cookies, but making the request necessarily transmits your IP address and browser details to Google, which acts as an independent controller for that data. No other third-party service is embedded in this site.
4. Managing cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works. See your browser's help pages for guidance.
5. Your consent and how to change it
When you first visit the site, a banner asks whether you accept non-essential cookies. Nothing beyond the strictly necessary items is placed on your device unless and until you accept, and declining is as straightforward as accepting — both options sit side by side, and neither is pre-selected. Closing or ignoring the banner is not treated as consent.
Your choice is not permanent. You can change or withdraw it at any time using the Cookie settings link in the footer of any page, which reopens the banner and lets you decide again. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it, and does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out beforehand.
6. Changes and contact
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes. Questions? Email info@bioglobalcompounds.com. See also our Privacy Policy.
