Cookie Policy of FARORBIS LTD

This Cookie Policy explains how FARORBIS LTD uses cookies and similar technologies on https://farorbis.social. FARORBIS LTD operates from 27 Old Gloucester Street, LONDON, WC1N 3AX United Kingdom. Privacy correspondence is received at inquiry@farorbis.social and by telephone on +44 7284 556677. This Policy is intended to be read with the Privacy Policy. It is written for visitors to a United Kingdom professional website concerning Cybersecurity Solutions, digital platforms and related computer services. It is not a cookie notice for a consumer media network, an advertising exchange, or a public archive catalogue.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels, and certain software development kit identifiers on mobile web views. This Policy uses “cookies” to cover those similar technologies unless a distinction is required. Cookies may be first-party, set by farorbis.social, or third-party, set by another domain. They may last only for a browsing session or for a defined period. They may be strictly necessary to transmit a communication or to provide a service you requested, or they may be optional.

United Kingdom law, including the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 as amended, requires consent for storing or accessing information on a subscriber or user's terminal equipment except where the cookie is strictly necessary for a service you requested or for transmission. FARORBIS LTD respects that distinction. We do not treat analytics, advertising, or social-plugin cookies as strictly necessary. If this site operates without non-essential cookies, that is a deliberate field decision, not an omission of a banner for its own sake. If non-essential cookies are introduced, a consent mechanism will be presented before those cookies run, with the ability to reject as easily as to accept, and to change the choice later.

2. Who is responsible

FARORBIS LTD is the controller for personal data collected via first-party cookies on this website, as described in the Privacy Policy. Third parties that set cookies are responsible for their own processing to the extent they determine purposes and means. We will name those parties in the cookie information available on the site if and when such cookies are used. We will not hide a third-party marketing cookie behind a cybersecurity label.

3. Categories we may use

Strictly necessary cookies support security, load distribution, session integrity, and the recording of a consent choice itself. They may remember that you have refused optional cookies so that we do not ask on every page load in a way that itself becomes storage without basis. They are not used to build a marketing profile.

Preference cookies, if used, remember a choice you make about the interface, such as reduced motion, but this site is designed to work without storing a theatre of personalisation. We do not currently require a logged-in consumer account on the public pages.

Analytics cookies, if used, help us understand which pages are read, whether the contact form is reached, and whether the site fails in a particular browser. We would configure such tools to collect as little as practicable, to avoid precise geolocation, and to avoid cross-site tracking. Analytics are not a substitute for a verified interpretation of a client's estate. They are a shallow scrape of our own public surface.

Marketing and social cookies are not part of the default field method of this site. We do not run a retargeting wall. We do not drop cookies because a visitor read about Streaming Platform Development or Social Media Platform Development. Those phrases describe services we may supply to organisations, not permission to track you across the web as if you were inventory.

4. What we actually use on publication

On publication, https://farorbis.social is a static multi-page professional site. It may be served with ordinary hosting logs and transport security. Hosting logs are not cookies, though they may record IP addresses as described in the Privacy Policy. Any session storage used by the browser for the burger menu or form validation is local to your device for the visit and is not a FARORBIS LTD tracking identifier. If a content delivery network or security layer sets a strictly necessary cookie to distinguish malicious automated traffic from a human visitor, that cookie is used to protect the station, not to measure your interest in Computer Related Consulting Services.

Google Maps may load when you open a page that embeds a map of 27 Old Gloucester Street, LONDON, WC1N 3AX United Kingdom. That embed is provided to show the registered office location exactly. The map provider may set its own cookies or collect device data according to its terms when the iframe loads. If you do not wish to interact with that provider, do not load the contact or homepage map area, or use browser controls to block third-party content. The postal address and telephone number remain available as plain text without the map.

Fonts may be requested from Google Fonts or a similar delivery service. A font request can expose your IP address to that provider. That is a network request, not always a cookie, but it is a similar technology in the broad sense of terminal access. We choose fonts to keep the typography of this site distinct. You may block third-party font requests; the site will fall back to system serif and sans faces.

5. Legal bases

Strictly necessary cookies are used because they are necessary to provide the site or a service you requested, and related personal data are processed under legitimate interests in security and operation, or to take steps toward a contract when you submit the form. Optional cookies, if any, are used on consent. Withdrawal of consent does not make earlier permitted storage unlawful. You may also control cookies through your browser, including blocking or deleting them. Blocking all cookies may affect strictly necessary functions, including the ability to remember a refusal.

6. Retention of cookie files

Session cookies expire when you close the browser. Persistent cookies, if used, will have a stated maximum age in the cookie information. We will not set a persistent marketing cookie with an indefinite life. Server logs associated with cookie identifiers are retained according to the Privacy Policy security window unless a longer sealed retention is required for an incident.

7. How to control cookies

Browser settings allow you to refuse or delete cookies. The method differs between browsers and versions, and we do not reproduce third-party help pages as if they were our documentation. Industry tools such as your device's tracking controls, and, where applicable, the ICO's guidance on cookies, provide additional explanation. Do-not-track signals are not consistently implemented across the web; we do not claim a universal response to every DNT header, but we also do not run a hidden advertising stack that would make such a signal the only remaining defence.

If we present a consent panel, that panel is the primary control for optional cookies on this domain. Returning to the panel, or writing to inquiry@farorbis.social with the subject cookie preference, allows a recorded change. We cannot control cookies set independently by a map or font provider once you have loaded those third-party resources, beyond advising you not to load them and beyond any contractual limits we place on processors we appoint.

8. Children

This website is directed to professional adults acting for organisations. We do not knowingly use cookies to profile children. If you believe a child has interacted with the site in a way that stored information, write to inquiry@farorbis.social and we will delete what we control.

9. Changes to this Cookie Policy

If we add analytics, a chat tool, a tag manager, or any non-essential cookie, we will update this Policy and the consent information before those technologies run for UK visitors. A change that only clarifies language may be published without a new banner. A change that introduces a new optional purpose will not be slipped through as a mere clarification.

10. Relation to services we sell

Clients sometimes ask FARORBIS LTD to implement cookie consent, tagging, or analytics on their own Web Application Development, Mobile Application Development, Streaming Platform Development or Social Media Platform Development products. Those implementations are governed by the client contract and by the client's own notices. This Cookie Policy does not authorise us to place cookies on a visitor's device for a client's marketing programme. It does not describe cookies on any platform other than https://farorbis.social.

Search Engine Technologies and Web Search Portals, when we build or assess them for a client, raise separate questions about crawlers, indexes and user identifiers. Those questions belong in the engagement record and in the client's privacy information, not in this Policy. Data Analytics Services we supply to clients are not a licence to analyse you as a visitor beyond what this Policy and the Privacy Policy allow.

11. Contact

Questions about cookies: FARORBIS LTD, 27 Old Gloucester Street, LONDON, WC1N 3AX United Kingdom. inquiry@farorbis.social. +44 7284 556677. Please do not include secrets in a cookie query. A cookie query is a context unit about this website, not an invitation to send a production log.

This Cookie Policy is issued in English and is designed for visitors in the United Kingdom and for others who choose to use a UK-established professional site. Mandatory local rights that cannot be limited remain available. The map embed shows 27 Old Gloucester Street, LONDON, WC1N 3AX United Kingdom and no other address. If a third-party map cache shows a different pin, trust the postal text on the page and write to us.

FARORBIS LTD will not use cookie language to disguise a surveillance product. Cybersecurity Solutions on this site means professional work for organisations, performed under authorisation, not covert tracking of website readers. Careful exposure, evidence tagging and verified interpretation are metaphors for how we work on client estates. They are not a description of a tracker graph laid over your browser.

12. Further cookie note

Local storage used by a map iframe belongs to the map provider's document, not to our first-party field notes. Clearing site data in your browser removes what the browser still holds; it does not erase hosting logs already written under the Privacy Policy.

13. Further cookie note

We do not use a tag manager on publication. If a tag manager is later introduced, it will be named, and each tag will be classified as necessary or optional with a purpose.

14. Further cookie note

Security cookies that distinguish a TLS session or a bot challenge are not a loyalty programme. Their lifetime will be as short as practicable for the protective purpose.

15. Further cookie note

We will not encode a Client's unpublished vulnerability into a cookie on this public site. That would be a failure of the field method.

16. Further cookie note

Prefetch or prerender features in some browsers may request assets before you click. That is a browser behaviour. We do not require you to enable it.

17. Further cookie note

Embedded fonts are requested for typography. Blocking them does not block the legal pages, which remain readable in system fonts.

18. Further cookie note

We do not use canvases, audio fingerprints, or battery APIs to identify you. Those techniques are contrary to the careful, evidence-led character of this station.

19. Further cookie note

If we ever use a session identifier to protect the contact form against automated flooding, that identifier is a security control. It will not be passed to an advertiser.

20. Further cookie note

Mobile application SDKs are irrelevant to this website unless you install a FARORBIS LTD application, which this Policy does not currently describe because the public property is a website.

21. Further cookie note

Email links are not used on this site for the address inquiry@farorbis.social, which appears as plain text. Copying that address into your mail client is your act, governed by your mail provider.

22. Further cookie note

A printed copy of this Policy does not itself set a cookie. It is a document. The website may still set strictly necessary cookies when you return.

23. Further cookie note

We will not interpret silence as consent for optional cookies. Consent, if required, will be a recorded action.

24. Further cookie note

Cookie tables, when optional cookies exist, will list name, purpose, duration, and provider. Until such cookies exist, a table of imaginary marketing cookies would itself be misleading.

25. Further cookie note

Third-party documentation may describe Google Maps cookies in more detail than we can lawfully reproduce here. We identify the purpose: showing 27 Old Gloucester Street, LONDON, WC1N 3AX United Kingdom.

26. Further cookie note

If you use a browser extension that rewrites pages, we are not responsible for cookies that extension sets.

27. Further cookie note

Intranet replay tools used by our developers on local copies of the site are not production tracking of the public.

28. Further cookie note

We do not participate in a cookie-syncing identity graph. We have no business reason to do so for a London professional field station.

29. Further cookie note

Changes in PECR or in ICO guidance will be reviewed. We will not wait for a complaint to read a statutory change that clearly applies to us.

30. Further cookie note

Staff administering the site may see aggregated logs. Access is limited. Curiosity viewing of a named visitor path is not a permitted purpose.

31. Further cookie note

If a court orders preservation of logs, preservation may extend a retention window for that sealed pack only.

32. Measurement without optional cookies

FARORBIS LTD may use server-side logs and short-window security telemetry that do not require optional cookies, as described in the Privacy Policy. Those logs support availability and abuse detection for https://farorbis.social. They are not a substitute for a tagged analytics programme on a Client product. If we later choose a cookieless analytics method that still accesses terminal storage, we will classify it honestly under PECR rather than hide it as a log.

33. Consent records and withdrawal mechanics

If a consent panel is deployed, we will store the fact of consent or refusal, a timestamp, and the version of purposes shown. That record is itself a strictly necessary storage for compliance. Withdrawal will stop optional cookies from the time of withdrawal forward. It cannot un-ring a bell already rung in a third-party system that you loaded, but we will not continue to emit optional events from our first-party pages after withdrawal. Writing to inquiry@farorbis.social remains an alternative channel if a panel fails. We will not require a telephone call to +44 7284 556677 as the only withdrawal method.

34. Cross-device and login

This public website does not offer a consumer login that would stitch devices into a single identity. We do not attempt to recognise you across phone and laptop for advertising. A Client who later builds such a login on its own Digital Platform Development product must describe that in its own notices. Our Cookie Policy stays limited to farorbis.social.
