Cookie Policy

This cookie policy explains how GENEO uses cookies and similar technologies, what they are for, and how you can control them.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work in the same way. Some are needed for the website to work; others are optional and are only used if you allow them.

Your consent

Under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR, we only use optional cookies with your consent. Necessary cookies are used without consent because the website cannot work without them.

Nothing optional runs until you make a choice, and rejecting is as easy as accepting.

The cookies we use

Changing your choices

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the cookie settings on this page. When you withdraw consent, the cookies for that category are deleted. You can also delete cookies through your browser settings.

Global Privacy Control

If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal of marketing cookies, and marketing stays off whatever else you choose.

Your consent record

We keep an anonymous record of each choice so we can show what was agreed. It contains a random consent ID, the date, your choices and a shortened, scrambled version of your IP address, never your name or email. Your consent ID is shown in the cookie settings; quote it if you contact us about your choices.
