Cookie Policy

Last updated 29 August 2026

1. About this policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Inteknix Limited (“Inteknix”, “we”, “us” and “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit https://inteknix.alacartesvc.com (the “Website”).

It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, who else receives the information they collect, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which sets out how we handle personal data more generally.

Some cookies collect information that is personal data in its own right, and some collect information that becomes personal data when combined with other information we hold.

3. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, tablet or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide information to site owners.

Cookies set by the website you are visiting are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by another organisation whose content or service appears on that website are called third-party cookies. Third-party cookies allow the organisation that sets them to recognise your device both on this Website and on other websites that use the same service.

We also use technologies that work in a similar way to cookies, including:

Pixels and web beacons. Very small graphics files containing a unique identifier, which allow us to see when a page has been viewed or an email has been opened, to understand how visitors move between pages, and to measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. These technologies usually depend on cookies to function, so declining cookies will limit them.

Local storage. Data stored by your browser rather than in a cookie file, used for similar purposes.Where this policy refers to “cookies”, it includes these similar technologies.

4. The law that applies

Our use of cookies is governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (“PECR”) and, where cookies involve the processing of personal data, by the UK General Data Protection Regulation (“UK GDPR”) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Strictly necessary cookies. PECR permits these without consent, because they are essential to provide the service you have asked for. Where they involve personal data, our lawful basis under Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR is our legitimate interest in operating a secure and functional website.

All other cookies. These are only set after you have given consent through our cookie banner. Our lawful basis under Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR is your consent. You may withdraw that consent at any time, and withdrawing it is as easy as giving it.

We do not treat continued browsing, scrolling, or closing the banner as consent.

5. The categories of cookies we use

Category	Purpose	Consent required
Essential	Cookies without which the Website cannot function properly or securely. They support core navigation, keep our contact forms working, protect against spam and automated abuse, and remember the cookie choices you have made.	No. These cannot be switched off.
Statistics	Cookies that help us understand how visitors find and use the Website, such as which pages are viewed, how long visitors stay, and which links are clicked. The information is aggregated and pseudonymised, and is used to improve the Website. It is not truly anonymous, because it relies on identifiers assigned to your browser.	Yes
Marketing	Cookies used to measure the performance of our advertising, to understand which campaigns bring visitors to the Website, and to support sharing our content on social platforms.	Yes

6. The cookies used on this Website

The table below lists the specific cookies served through the Website, grouped by category and by the service that sets them. The cookies you actually receive will depend on the choices you make in the cookie banner and on which pages you visit.

7. Third parties and international transfers

Some of the cookies described above are set by third parties who act as processors or as independent controllers in their own right. The main third parties are:

Google LLC (Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google reCAPTCHA and, where used, Google Ads). Google’s privacy notice is available at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

AddToAny (social sharing buttons). Its privacy notice is available at https://www.addtoany.com/privacy.

Cloudflare, Inc. (security, bot mitigation and content delivery). Its privacy notice is available at https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/.

These providers are based outside the United Kingdom, which means that information collected by their cookies may be transferred to and stored in countries whose data protection laws differ from those of the UK. Where such transfers involve personal data, they are made under the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, or under the International Data Transfer Addendum to the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, together with any additional safeguards required.

We do not sell the information collected through cookies, and we do not use it to build profiles that identify you by name unless you separately provide your details to us, for example by submitting an enquiry form.

8. Managing your cookie preferences

You can accept or reject non-essential cookies when you first arrive on the Website, using the cookie banner. Rejecting them is as easy as accepting them.

You can change your choices at any time by opening the cookie preferences panel, which is available from the link in the banner and from the cookie settings control on the Website. Withdrawing consent will stop the relevant cookies being set from that point onwards. It does not remove cookies already stored on your device, so you may also wish to clear them through your browser.

Your choices are stored in an essential cookie so that we do not have to ask you again on every visit. We will ask you again when that cookie expires, and if we make material changes to the cookies we use.

If you reject non-essential cookies you can still use the Website. Some features, such as embedded content and social sharing, may not work fully.

9. Controlling cookies through your browser

You can also set your browser to accept, block or delete cookies. The method varies between browsers, so you should consult your browser’s help pages:

Google Chrome
Mozilla Firefox
Apple Safari
Microsoft Edge
Opera

Please note that blocking all cookies through your browser will affect most websites you visit, not only this one.

10. Advertising

We advertise our services online, including through Google Ads. Where you have consented to marketing cookies, we and our advertising partners may use cookies to measure whether an advertisement led to a visit or an enquiry, and to avoid showing you the same advertisement repeatedly.

The information collected for this purpose does not enable us or our partners to identify you by name or contact details unless you choose to provide them to us.

You can opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies through the following:

Your Online Choices (European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance)
Google Ads Settings

11. How long cookies last

Each cookie has its own lifespan, shown in the “Duration” column of the table in section 6. Cookies fall into two broad types:

Session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies, which remain on your device until they expire or until you delete them.

12. Your rights

Where cookies involve the processing of your personal data, you have rights under the UK GDPR, including the right to be informed, the right of access, the right to rectification, the right to erasure, the right to restrict processing, the right to data portability, and the right to object. Where we rely on your consent, you have the right to withdraw it at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in section 14. Further information about your rights is set out in our Privacy Policy.

If you are not satisfied with how we have handled your personal data, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office:

Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF
Helpline: 0303 123 1113

We would, however, appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns before you approach the ICO.

13. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. The date at the top of this policy shows when it was last updated. Where the changes are material, we will ask you to renew your consent.
