About this policy
This policy applies to the website and content-management system operated by SGA World Limited (company number 12001597). It should be read with our Privacy Notice.
What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files stored on a device by a website. Similar technologies, including browser local storage, can also store or access information on a device. They may support essential functions, remember choices or measure how a website is used.
The public website
The public SGA World website does not currently set cookies or use browser local storage. It does not use analytics or advertising cookies, tracking pixels, fingerprinting or third-party embedded content. Public forms are protected using server-side security controls and do not set a visitor cookie.
Because the public website does not use non-essential cookies or similar storage, a cookie consent banner is not currently displayed.
Administration cookies
The following first-party cookies may be used only when an authorised person accesses the private SGA World content-management system:
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration | Classification |
|---|---|---|---|
| payload-token | Authenticates an authorised administrator and protects the administration session. | Up to 2 hours | Strictly necessary |
| payload-theme | Remembers the light or dark appearance selected by an authorised administrator. | Up to 1 year | Requested interface preference |
The authentication cookie is configured as Secure, HttpOnly and SameSite=Lax. These administration cookies are not used for advertising, behavioural tracking or public website analytics.
Your browser controls
Most browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies. Blocking necessary cookies will prevent authorised users from signing in to the content-management system but will not affect ordinary use of the public website.
Future changes
Before introducing analytics, advertising or any other non-essential storage, SGA World will review the technology, update this policy and put appropriate consent or other legally valid controls in place. Non-essential storage will not be enabled by default without the required control.
