Introduction This Cookie Policy explains how Emotio Design Group Ltd (“Emotio”, “we”, “our” or “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at emotio-design-group.co.uk. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy. By using our website and accepting cookies through our consent banner, you agree to our use of cookies as described in this policy. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time. # 2. What Are Cookies? Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to improve efficiency, and to provide information to the site owner. Similar technologies such as pixels, tags and local storage perform comparable functions, and we refer to all of these collectively as “cookies” in this policy. Cookies may be “first-party” (set by us) or “third-party” (set by another organisation, such as an analytics or advertising provider). They may also be “session” cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which remain until they expire or are deleted. # 3. How We Manage Cookies and Consent When you first visit our website, our consent management platform presents a cookie banner that lets you accept or reject cookies by category. Strictly necessary cookies are always active because the site cannot function without them. All other categories — Functional (Preferences), Statistics and Marketing — are only set after you give consent. You can change your preferences at any time using the cookie banner or settings link on our website, or by managing cookies through your browser settings. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew it. # 4. Categories of Cookies We Use We group cookies into the four categories below. The tables list the main cookies in each category; exact names and durations may vary as third-party providers update their technologies. The authoritative, automatically maintained list is available through the cookie settings on our website. **Strictly Necessary (always active)** These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. **Cookie Name** **Provider** **Purpose** **Duration** CookieConsent / cmplz_* Consent platform Stores your cookie consent preferences Up to 12 months wordpress_*, wp-settings-* WordPress Maintains session and site settings for logged-in users Session / 1 year wp-rocket / rocket_* WP Rocket Supports page caching for site performance Session PHPSESSID Emotio (WordPress) Preserves user session state across page requests Session **Functional / Preferences** These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation, such as remembering your choices and preferences.

Third-Party Cookies Some cookies are set by third parties that act as independent controllers of the data they collect. We do not control these cookies, and we recommend you review each provider’s own privacy and cookie information: - Google (Analytics and Ads) – see Google’s Privacy & Terms at policies.google.com - Meta (Facebook Pixel) – see Meta’s Cookie and Privacy policies at facebook.com/policies - LinkedIn (Insight Tag) – see LinkedIn’s Privacy Policy at linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy # 6. Managing Cookies in Your Browser In addition to our cookie banner, most browsers allow you to view, manage, delete and block cookies. You can usually find these controls in the “Settings” or “Preferences” menu of your browser. Please note that if you block all cookies, including strictly necessary ones, parts of our website may not function correctly. For general guidance on managing cookies, you may find the information at aboutcookies.org or allaboutcookies.org helpful. # 7. Changes to This Cookie Policy We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for operational, legal or regulatory reasons. The latest version will always be published on this page with its effective date. # 8.
