Cookie Policy

Effective date: 21 April 2026 Last updated: 21 April 2026

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, to operate them more efficiently, and to provide information to the site owner.

This Cookie Policy explains which cookies aeops.io sets, why we set them, and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

Your consent

When you first visit aeops.io we ask for your consent to set non-essential cookies. You can grant, deny, or change your cookie preferences at any time using the cookie settings link in the site footer.

Strictly necessary cookies are set automatically because the site cannot function without them. We do not ask consent for these because UK and EU law allows them without consent.

Categories of cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the site to function and cannot be switched off.

Cookie	Provider	Purpose	Duration
`aeops_session`	aeops.io	Maintains your session for site navigation and form submissions	Session
`aeops_cookie_consent`	aeops.io	Records your cookie preferences so we don't re-prompt every visit	12 months
`__cf_bm`	Cloudflare	Bot management to protect the site from automated abuse	30 minutes

Analytics cookies (consent required)

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. We use privacy-respecting analytics that do not track you across other sites and do not build advertising profiles.

Cookie	Provider	Purpose	Duration
`_pa_*`	Plausible Analytics	Aggregate, anonymous page-view counting	Session

We do not currently use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any advertising-network cookies.

Subscription functionality cookies (consent required)

These cookies are set when you interact with the subscription form to remember whether you've already subscribed and prevent duplicate sign-ups.

Cookie	Provider	Purpose	Duration
`aeops_subscribed`	aeops.io	Remembers you have already subscribed so we hide the signup form	12 months

Cookies we do not use

For clarity, aeops.io does not set or permit:

Advertising cookies
Cross-site tracking cookies
Social media tracking pixels
Retargeting or remarketing cookies
Third-party data broker cookies

We do not run ads on aeops.io and do not plan to.

Third-party services that may set cookies

When you interact with embedded content or services on the site, the relevant third party may set its own cookies. These are governed by the third party's own cookie and privacy policies.

Resend (email delivery): may set cookies on click-through links from emails. See https://resend.com/legal/privacy-policy
Vercel (site hosting): sets the __cf_bm Cloudflare cookie listed above for bot management

Managing your cookie preferences

You have several ways to manage cookies:

On aeops.io: click the "Cookie settings" link in the site footer at any time to update your preferences.

In your browser: most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings. For step-by-step instructions, see:

Do Not Track: we honour browser-level Do Not Track signals and Global Privacy Control headers. If your browser sends either, we treat it as a refusal of analytics and functional cookies.

Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may break parts of the site, including the subscription form and the cookie preference centre itself.

Your rights

You have the right to know what cookies are set on your device, why they are set, and how long they last. This page documents all of that. You also have the rights described in our Privacy Policy, including the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office.

Changes to this policy

We will update this Cookie Policy whenever we add, remove, or change a cookie or cookie provider. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent change.
