Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognise your browser on a return visit, remember your preferences, and gather information about how you use the site. Cookies do not contain executable code and cannot access other files on your device.

Similar technologies — such as local storage, web beacons, and tracking pixels — may serve related purposes. Where this policy refers to "cookies," it covers these related technologies too.

2. Cookies We Use

We use cookies in two categories: strictly necessary and analytics. The table below lists each cookie, its purpose, and its duration.

Strictly Necessary

Cookie name	Purpose	Duration	Type
suria_cookie_consent	Records your cookie preference so we do not show the consent prompt on every visit	12 months	First-party
PHPSESSID	Standard PHP session identifier — maintains your session as you navigate the site	Session (deleted when browser closes)	First-party

Analytics (consent required)

Cookie name	Purpose	Duration	Type
_ga	Google Analytics — distinguishes unique users by assigning a randomly generated number as a client identifier	2 years	Third-party (Google)
_ga_XXXXXX	Google Analytics 4 — maintains session state and stores interaction counts	2 years	Third-party (Google)
_fbp	Meta Pixel — used by Facebook to deliver, measure, and improve the relevance of advertisements	3 months	Third-party (Meta)
_uetsid	Microsoft Clarity / Bing — used to track conversions from Bing Ads	1 day	Third-party (Microsoft)

Analytics cookies are only placed after you give consent. No analytics data is collected during a session where consent has not been given or has been withdrawn.

3. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies listed above are set by third-party providers — Google, Meta, and Microsoft. These providers may collect data in accordance with their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing those policies if you have specific concerns:

We also embed a Google Maps iframe on our homepage. Google may set cookies when you interact with the map. These are governed by Google's policies. Map cookies are not controlled by us.

4. Your Preferences

Strictly necessary cookies are placed without consent as they are required for the website to function. All other cookies require your consent before they are set.

You gave (or declined) your initial preference via the cookie prompt shown on your first visit. You may change that preference at any time using the tool in Section 5 below, or by clearing your cookies and revisiting the site.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing that took place before withdrawal. After withdrawal, no new analytics cookies will be placed and existing analytics cookies will expire naturally.

5. Preference Tool

Use the toggles below to update your cookie preferences. Changes take effect immediately. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled as they are required for the site to operate.

Strictly Necessary

Required for the website to function. Cannot be disabled. These include the session cookie and your consent preference record.

Analytics

Helps us understand how visitors use our site by collecting anonymised usage data (Google Analytics, Bing, Meta Pixel). No personal profiles are built from this data.

Saved

Your preference is stored in a first-party cookie (suria_cookie_consent) for 12 months.

6. Browser Settings

In addition to using the preference tool above, you can manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies. Note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites.

Browser	Cookie settings path
Google Chrome	Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
Mozilla Firefox	Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
Apple Safari	Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
Microsoft Edge	Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data

You may also opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use or regulatory requirements. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Material changes that require fresh consent will be communicated via the consent prompt on the website.
