Cookies Policy

This Cookies Policy explains how Sapien Medica Limited (“Sapien Medica”, “we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at [www.sapienmedica.com] (the “Website”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1.What Cookies Are

A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your device when you visit it. Cookies allow a website to recognise your device on subsequent visits, remember your preferences, support how the site functions, and produce information about how the site is used. Similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage, perform comparable functions and are treated together with cookies in this Policy.

2.The Categories of Cookies We Use

Cookies fall into the following categories. Strictly necessary cookies are set automatically because the Website cannot function without them. All other cookies are set only with your consent, which you give through our cookie banner when you first visit the Website and which you can change at any time using the cookie settings link in our Website footer.

2.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential to the Website’s basic operation. They support security, load balancing, session management, and the storage of your cookie preferences. They cannot be turned off because the Website would not work properly without them. We do not require your consent for strictly necessary cookies, but we tell you about them here for transparency. We use the platform cookie Cookie Yes to manage cookie consent on the Website, ensuring your preferences are stored securely and efficiently.

2.2 Analytics cookies
With your consent, we use Google Analytics 4 and Google Search Console to understand how visitors use the Website, for example, which pages they visit, how long they stay, and the route they take through the site. This information helps us improve the Website and the information we provide. Google Analytics 4 uses IP-truncation by default and we configure it to limit data retention to the shortest practicable period. We do not use Google Analytics for advertising purposes. Google Search Console assists us in monitoring and maintaining our presence in Google Search results, helping to optimise our content and website performance.

2.3 Marketing and social media cookies
With your consent, we may use Google Ads cookies to measure the performance of our advertising campaigns and deliver relevant advertisements to users who visit our Website. We do not currently use other marketing or remarketing cookies on the Website. If we introduce additional marketing or social media cookies in future, this Policy will be updated and your consent will be sought through our cookie banner before any such cookie is set.

3.The Cookies We Set

The table below describes the principal cookies set on the Website. The exact list may change from time to time as the Website evolves; the live list is reflected in our cookie consent banner.

4.Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies are set by third parties whose services appear on or are integrated with the Website (for example, Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Google Ads, embedded video providers, or our cookie consent management platform such as Cookie Yes). These third parties act independently and have their own privacy and cookie policies. We do not control the cookies set by these third parties; they are set only where you have consented through the cookie banner.

5.How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences

You can change your cookie preferences at any time using the cookie settings link in our Website footer. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings, most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. The Help function in your browser will explain how, and the website allaboutcookies.org provides general guidance for the most common browsers.
Please note that strictly necessary cookies cannot be turned off through the cookie banner because the Website would not function without them. Blocking strictly necessary cookies through browser settings may stop parts of the Website from working.

6.Do Not Track

Some browsers transmit a “Do Not Track” signal. There is no industry-agreed standard for what websites should do with this signal, and our Website does not currently respond to it. We rely instead on your direct cookie preferences expressed through our cookie banner.

7.Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable law. The version number and effective date at the top of the Policy will show when it was last revised.
