Cookie Policy

Effective date: [site launch date, mm/dd/yyyy] · Last updated: [same]

This policy explains how 8 Furlong Consulting ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on 8FurlongConsulting.com (the "Site"). It supplements our Privacy Policy.

What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function, remember your preferences, and help us understand how the Site is used. Similar technologies — such as pixels and local storage — serve comparable purposes, and this policy covers them as well.

The Categories We Use

Essential cookies. Required for the Site to function — including the cookie that remembers your consent choices and those needed for security and basic operation. These cannot be switched off through the banner, because the Site does not work without them.

Analytics cookies. Set with your consent, these help us understand how visitors use the Site — which pages are viewed, how visitors arrive, and where they leave — through Google Analytics. The information is aggregated; we use it to improve the Site, not to identify you personally.

Functional and marketing cookies. Set with your consent, these support embedded services on the Site — such as scheduling tools and maps — and help us understand which of our pages and communications lead visitors to contact us. Third parties whose services are embedded on the Site may set their own cookies, governed by their own policies.

Your Choices

On your first visit, the Site presents a consent banner where you can accept or decline non-essential cookies by category. You can change your preferences at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the Site footer. Declining non-essential cookies does not affect your ability to browse the Site or contact us.

Your browser also offers cookie controls — including blocking and deleting cookies — through its settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect how the Site functions. Where analytics cookies are declined or deleted, our analytics provider offers additional opt-out tools at the browser level.

How Long Cookies Last

Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire on their own schedule — ranging from days to about two years — or until you delete them. Your consent choice is retained so we don't ask on every visit, and the banner reappears when our cookie use materially changes.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the Site's technology changes. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision.
