Cookie Policy

Skyie Global InfoTech Ltd ("Skyie Global", "we", "us") is a company registered in England and Wales (company number 17294509; registered office Unit 37B, Alpha House, 100 Borough High Street, London, SE1 1LB, United Kingdom). We use cookies in line with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, and we follow ICO guidance. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Notice. If you have any questions about this policy, contact us at [email protected].

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device. When you return, the site can read that file to recognise your browser. "Similar technologies" cover other ways of storing or reading information on your device for comparable purposes — for example, local storage in your browser, or pixels and software tags. In this policy, references to "cookies" include these similar technologies. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by the site you are visiting) or "third-party" (set by another organisation whose service is used on the page, such as our security and anti-spam providers). They can also be "session" cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent" cookies, which remain for a set period.

We keep our use of cookies to the minimum needed to run a secure, working website. Today, we set only strictly necessary cookies. We do not use advertising cookies, we do not track you across other websites, and we are not currently running any analytics cookies — first-party or third-party. We do not build advertising profiles, and we do not sell or share your personal data for marketing. Should this change in future, any optional cookies would be introduced only with your consent, as described below, and this policy would be updated first.

Strictly necessary (also called "essential") cookies are those without which a service you have asked for cannot be provided — for example, keeping the site secure, protecting forms from abuse, or remembering a choice you have made about cookies. Under PECR, strictly necessary cookies do not require your consent, and they cannot be switched off through our consent controls because the site relies on them. The items in this category are: • Cloudflare security cookies — Our website uses Cloudflare to deliver content and to protect the site against malicious traffic and bots. Cloudflare may set the "__cf_bm" cookie (bot management) and the "cf_clearance" cookie (which records that a security challenge has been passed so you are not repeatedly challenged). These are persistent third-party cookies whose lifetimes are set by Cloudflare's configuration (for example, __cf_bm typically expires around 30 minutes after activity, and cf_clearance lasts for a Cloudflare-configured period). They process information such as your IP address and request signals for security purposes. • Cloudflare Turnstile (contact form anti-spam) — On our contact form we use Cloudflare Turnstile to tell humans and automated abuse apart without intrusive puzzles. Turnstile may set or read essential Cloudflare security cookies (which can include the "cf_clearance" cookie) and processes signals such as your IP address and your interaction with the page. This is strictly necessary to keep the form usable and to prevent spam and abuse. • Cookie preference — When you make a choice in our cookie banner, we record it so we do not ask you again on every visit. We store this choice in your browser's local storage (under the key "skyie-cookie-consent") and in a first-party cookie named "skyie-consent", which lasts up to 180 days. The local storage entry is a similar technology rather than a cookie, but it serves the same strictly necessary purpose of remembering your preference and honouring your choice.

We are not currently using any optional (non-essential) cookies, such as analytics, performance or marketing cookies. If we decide to introduce any in future — for example, privacy-respecting analytics to understand how the site is used — we will not set them until you have given your consent. Consent will be requested through our on-site cookie banner, which offers an equally prominent "Essential only" and "Accept all" choice. We will not use pre-ticked boxes, and declining will be as straightforward as accepting. We will only treat a clear, affirmative action as consent, and we will tell you what each optional cookie does before you decide.

You are in control of optional cookies at all times, and withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it. You can change or withdraw your choice in two ways: • On-site control — Select "Cookie preferences" in the website footer to reopen the cookie banner at any time and update your choice. Your updated preference is saved immediately and applied going forward. • Browser settings — Most browsers let you view, block or delete cookies and local storage through their settings or privacy menus, and to set preferences for first- and third-party cookies. The steps differ between browsers, so check your browser's help pages for details. You can also clear cookies already stored on your device. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew it. Because we currently set only strictly necessary cookies, there are no optional cookies to switch off today; the controls above will become active for any optional cookies we introduce in future.

Strictly necessary cookies cannot be turned off through our consent controls without affecting how the site works. If you block or delete them in your browser, parts of the site may not function correctly — for example, our security protections may repeatedly challenge you, the contact form's anti-spam check may fail, or your saved cookie preference may be forgotten so the banner appears again. Disabling optional cookies (if any are ever offered) will not stop you from using the website or reading its content.

Our website is intended to be hosted on UK-based infrastructure. Some of the providers whose cookies are described above operate global networks and may process limited information, such as IP addresses and security signals, outside the United Kingdom. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we rely on appropriate safeguards as required by Article 46 of the UK GDPR — for example, an International Data Transfer Agreement, the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or a UK adequacy decision. More detail on our processors and transfers is set out in our Privacy Notice.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time — for instance, if we change the cookies we use or introduce optional cookies. When we make material changes, we will update the date shown at the top of this page and, where appropriate, ask for fresh consent through the cookie banner. Please check this page periodically to stay informed.

If you have questions about this Cookie Policy or about how we use cookies and similar technologies, contact us at [email protected], or write to us at Unit 37B, Alpha House, 100 Borough High Street, London, SE1 1LB, United Kingdom. If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection, at ico.org.uk.
