Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 8 May 2025 · Effective Date: 8 May 2025
1. About This Policy
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies Harmoni uses on its website at harmonimy.sbs, and how you may manage your preferences. We aim to keep this explanation clear and straightforward.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which describes more broadly how we handle personal information.
2. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They allow the site to remember certain information about your visit — for example, whether you have seen a notice or how you prefer to navigate the page.
Cookies do not give websites access to your device or any personal information beyond what you choose to share. Most browsers accept cookies automatically, but you can adjust your settings to decline them if you prefer.
Similar technologies — such as local storage and session storage — work in comparable ways and are covered by this policy wherever we use them.
3. How We Seek Your Agreement
When you visit our website for the first time, a brief notice appears at the foot of the page. This notice explains that we use cookies and invites you to acknowledge that you have read this policy. Your acknowledgement is recorded in your browser's local storage under the key harmoni_cookie_consent with the value accepted.
Once stored, the notice does not appear again on subsequent visits from the same browser. No data from this interaction is transmitted to our servers — it remains entirely within your browser.
If you clear your browser's local storage or use a different device, the notice will appear again.
4. Categories of Cookies We Use
We group the cookies on our website into four categories. The table below describes each category, gives examples of what they do, and notes whether they are active on our site.
| Category | Purpose | Examples | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | Necessary for the website to function. Without these, core features — such as page navigation and the contact form — may not work correctly. | Cookie consent record (local storage); session state | Active |
| Analytics | Help us understand how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are viewed most often and whether visitors encounter errors. This allows us to improve the site over time. | Page view tracking; session duration; referral source | May be active |
| Preferences | Remember choices you make to personalise your experience — such as your preferred language or display settings — so you do not need to re-select them each visit. | Language selection; display preferences | Not currently used |
| Marketing | Used to deliver relevant information and measure the effectiveness of outreach. These may be placed by third-party services and may track your activity across websites. | Advertising pixels; retargeting tags | Not currently used |
5. Specific Cookies and Local Storage Items
The table below lists the individual cookies and local storage items currently placed on your device when you visit our website.
| Name | Type | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
harmoni_cookie_consent |
Local Storage | Essential | Records that you have read and acknowledged our cookie notice, so it does not appear on every visit. | Until you clear local storage or use a new browser |
| Analytics (if active) | Cookie | Analytics | Collects anonymised information on page visits and site usage to help us improve the website experience. | Up to 13 months (varies by provider) |
We will update this table whenever we introduce or remove cookies from our website.
6. Third-Party Content
Our homepage includes an embedded map provided by Google Maps. When this map loads, Google may place its own cookies on your device in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy. We do not control those cookies and encourage you to review Google's policy if you have questions about them.
We do not embed social media buttons or third-party advertising widgets that would place additional tracking cookies without your knowledge.
7. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several ways to manage how cookies are stored on your device:
Browser Settings
Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies through their settings menus. The steps vary by browser — please refer to the help pages for your particular browser for guidance. Note that blocking all cookies may affect how some parts of our website work.
Clearing Local Storage
To remove our consent record from your browser, open your browser's developer tools or settings and clear the local storage for harmonimy.sbs. The cookie notice will reappear on your next visit. On most browsers, this option is found under "Application" or "Storage" in the developer tools panel.
Opt-Out Tools
If we use analytics services in future, we will provide links to the relevant opt-out mechanisms here. At present, no third-party analytics opt-out is required beyond your browser settings.
8. Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" signal that can be sent to websites you visit. There is currently no agreed standard for how websites should respond to this signal. Our website does not alter its behaviour based on Do Not Track requests, but we remain attentive to guidance as industry practice develops.
9. Children's Privacy
Our website is not directed at children under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through cookies or other means. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to address the situation.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our own practices. When we do, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of our website following any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
