Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 10 June 2025
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, remember your preferences, and — where you agree — to help website owners understand how their site is being used.
This policy explains what cookies we use on the Heronest website at heronest.live, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use two categories of cookies on this website:
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function. They do not collect information about you for analytics or marketing purposes, and they cannot be switched off. Without them, certain parts of the site — such as remembering your cookie preference — would not work.
Analytics Cookies
With your consent, we use analytics cookies to understand how visitors move through the site and which content is most useful. This helps us improve the experience over time. Analytics data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
3. Cookies We Place
| Cookie Name | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| hn_cookie_consent | Essential | Remembers whether you have accepted or declined optional cookies, so the consent banner is not shown on every visit. | 12 months |
| _ga | Analytics | Google Analytics — distinguishes unique visitors and tracks sessions across pages. Data is aggregated and anonymised. | 24 months |
| _ga_* | Analytics | Google Analytics — stores and counts page views for the session. | 24 months |
| _gid | Analytics | Google Analytics — distinguishes users within a 24-hour period. | 24 hours |
4. Third-Party Services
Our website includes an embedded Google Maps frame to help visitors locate our office. Google Maps may set its own cookies when this element loads. These are governed by Google's own Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, which you can read at policies.google.com. We do not control the cookies set by Google.
If you have opted out of analytics cookies, the Google Maps embed may still place functional cookies required for the map to operate.
5. Your Consent and Choices
When you first visit our website, a small notice will appear at the bottom of the screen. You can:
- Accept all cookies — essential and analytics cookies will be set
- Decline optional cookies — only essential cookies will be set; analytics cookies will not be placed
Your preference is saved for 12 months. You can change your mind at any time by clearing your browser's cookies and revisiting the site, which will show the consent notice again.
6. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies through their settings. The steps vary by browser:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies
Please be aware that blocking essential cookies may affect how the website functions.
7. Do Not Track
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature. Our website does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals. You can manage your preferences through the cookie consent notice or your browser settings as described above.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy if we change the cookies we use or if requirements change. The updated version will appear on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date. We recommend checking this page periodically.
