What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a site to remember your actions and preferences over time. Similar technologies such as local storage and pixels perform comparable functions, and where we refer to cookies below we include those technologies.
Categories we use
Strictly necessary — always active
These cookies are required for the website to operate and cannot be switched off. They do not store personally identifiable information.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| dlb_cookie_consent_v1 | Stores your cookie consent choice so the banner is not shown repeatedly. Set in browser local storage. | 12 months |
| Hosting session cookie | Set by our web host to route requests and protect against abusive traffic. | Session |
Analytics and performance — optional
These help us understand which pages are useful, how visitors move through the site, and where pages fail to load correctly. Data is aggregated and IP addresses are truncated where the provider supports it.
| Name | Provider | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics — distinguishes visitors and sessions | Up to 24 months |
| Clarity session identifiers | Microsoft Clarity — aggregated page interaction metrics | Up to 12 months |
Advertising and measurement — optional
We advertise our services to small business owners searching for bookkeeping help. These cookies let us measure whether an advertisement led to an enquiry, and avoid showing the same advertisement to people who have already contacted us.
| Name | Provider | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _uetsid, _uetvid, MUID | Microsoft Advertising (Bing) — conversion measurement and audience exclusion | Up to 13 months |
| _gcl_au | Google Ads — conversion attribution | 3 months |
No optional cookie is set before you give consent. If you select “Necessary only”, none of the analytics or advertising cookies listed above are placed.
Managing your choices
You can change your decision at any time using the cookie preferences link in the footer of every page, which reopens the consent banner.
You may also control cookies through your browser settings. The help pages for the major browsers explain how to view, block and delete cookies:
- Microsoft Edge — Settings, then Cookies and site permissions
- Google Chrome — Settings, then Privacy and security
- Mozilla Firefox — Settings, then Privacy & Security
- Apple Safari — Preferences, then Privacy
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the website from working correctly.
We also respect the Global Privacy Control browser signal. When that signal is present, optional cookies are treated as declined.
Opting out with providers directly
You can opt out of Google Analytics across all websites using Google's browser add-on, and manage advertising personalisation through the Microsoft Advertising and Google Ads settings pages. Industry opt-out tools are also available from the Network Advertising Initiative and the Digital Advertising Alliance.
Updates to this policy
The cookies we use may change as we adjust our tools. We review this page at least twice a year and whenever a new provider is added, and the revision date at the top always reflects the current version.
