Cookie Policy

Last Updated:  ·  Effective:

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device — computer, tablet, or phone — when you visit. They help the site remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferred language or whether you have previously accepted these terms.

At Quorum Stead, we use cookies to keep the site functioning correctly, understand how visitors navigate our pages, and occasionally to personalise content where relevant. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles or share your data with marketing networks unless you specifically consent.

This policy explains each category of cookie we may use, how long they last, and how you can manage your preferences. Your choices are saved locally on your device and respected throughout your visits.

Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

Always active — cannot be disabled

Always On

These cookies are necessary for the website to function. Without them, services such as navigation, form submission, and security cannot operate. They do not collect personal information used for marketing.

Examples: Session management, security tokens, cookie consent record, CSRF protection.

Duration: Session (deleted when browser closes) or up to 12 months for consent preferences.

Analytics Cookies

Optional — helps us improve the site

Off

Analytics cookies allow us to understand how visitors interact with our site — which pages are visited most, where visitors come from, and how long they spend on each section. This information is aggregated and does not identify you personally.

Examples: Google Analytics (page views, session duration, traffic sources).

Duration: Up to 2 years for persistent identifiers; session cookies expire when browser closes.

Marketing Cookies

Optional — for advertising relevance

Off

Marketing cookies may be placed by advertising networks we work with. They track your visits across websites to help show adverts that are more relevant to your interests. If disabled, you will still see adverts but they will be less tailored.

Examples: Google Ads conversion tracking, social media retargeting pixels.

Duration: Typically 30 to 90 days depending on the provider.

Preference Cookies

Optional — remembers your settings

Off

Preference cookies remember choices you have made on the site — such as your language setting or display preferences — so you do not need to repeat them on each visit.

Examples: Language selection, regional format settings.

Duration: Up to 12 months.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on this site are placed by third-party services we use to improve functionality and understand site usage. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies which we encourage you to review.

Google Analytics

Used to measure site usage and visitor behaviour. Data is anonymised before processing.

Google Ads

Conversion tracking to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.

Social Platforms

LinkedIn and Meta may set cookies if you interact with our social sharing elements.

How Long Cookies Last

Session Cookies

These exist only while your browser is open. Once you close your browser, session cookies are deleted automatically. They are typically used to maintain your state as you move between pages.

Persistent Cookies

These remain on your device for a set period — typically between 30 days and 2 years — or until you delete them manually. They are used to remember your preferences across visits.
