ProtectMyDataSolutions — Cookie Policy
Applies to: all ProtectMyDataSolutions websites
1. What this covers
This policy explains the cookies and similar storage (such as local storage in your browser) that our websites and apps use. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
2. The kinds of storage we use
Essential. Needed for the site or app to work, for example to keep you signed in during a session, to remember your chosen language, and to remember interface choices (such as a theme or a dismissed banner). These are always on, because the service cannot work without them.
Preferences. Remember choices you make, such as language, so you do not have to set them again.
Analytics. We do not use analytics or advertising cookies.
Advertising. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
Third-party review widget. Some of our pages can show a Trustpilot review widget. It is loaded from Trustpilot only after you accept it in the cookie banner, and Trustpilot then sets its own cookies under its own privacy and cookie policies. If you decline, or make no choice, it is not loaded.
Referral cookie. If you arrive through a partner's referral link and accept cookies in the cookie banner, we set a first-party cookie named pmds_ref. It holds the partner's code and a click ID, lasts 60 days, and is used to credit a sign-up to the partner who referred you. If you decline, or make no choice, it is not set; if you withdraw your consent, it is removed.
3. Your choices
On your first visit, where the law requires consent (for example in the EU), the site shows a cookie banner and asks before setting anything that is not essential. The default is to decline non-essential storage, and nothing non-essential is loaded until you agree. You can change your choice at any time, and you can also control cookies in your browser settings; blocking essential storage may stop the site working.
4. Changes and contact
We may update this policy; the "last updated" date shows the current version. Questions: support@protectmydatasolutions.com.
