SettleskillCookie Policy
Last updated 8 August 2026
Settleskill only places strictly necessary cookies until you tell us otherwise. Everything else waits for your explicit, freely given consent — and you can withdraw it in one click.
1. What we mean by cookies
"Cookies" here covers cookies and any similar technology that stores or reads information on your device, including localStorage, sessionStorage and pixels. The ePrivacy Directive and comparable rules in Asia and Africa treat these the same way.
2. Categories
- Strictly necessary — Required to run the platform: keeping you signed in, securing your session, remembering your cookie choices and preventing fraud. These cannot be switched off.
- Preferences — Remembers choices you make, such as your interface language and dashboard layout, so you don't have to set them again.
- Analytics — Helps us understand which pages and features are used so we can improve the platform. Data is aggregated and never used to advertise to you.
- Marketing — Used to measure campaigns and show you relevant information about Settleskill on other sites. Never enabled without your explicit consent.

4. Managing your choices
Open the preference centre at any time — refusing is as easy as accepting, and refusing never limits access to the platform. Non-consented cookies are actively deleted from your device when you change your mind.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will sign you out.
5. Consent renewal
We ask again every 12 months, and immediately whenever we add a new cookie purpose.
