MULTIPLI CONSULTING LTD COOKIE POLICY

Last updated: 9 November 2026

This cookie policy explains how Multipli Consulting Ltd ("we", "us" or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website (www.multipli.co.uk), our client portals and our newsletter page (www.multipliportal.co.uk). It should be read together with our Privacy Notice (www.multipli.co.uk/privacy-policy), which explains how we use personal data more generally.

What's a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer, phone or other device when you visit it. Cookies allow a website to work properly, keep it secure, remember your choices and, where you agree, help the website owner understand how the site is used. Similar technologies, such as local storage and tracking pixels, work in a comparable way. In this policy, "cookies" includes these technologies.

Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, we must ask for your consent before we set any cookie that is not strictly necessary. Strictly necessary cookies do not need your consent, because the website or service you have asked for cannot work without them.

How do we use cookies?

We use two types of cookie:

·       Strictly necessary cookies. These keep our website and client portals secure, protect our contact form from spam, remember the cookie choices you make, and keep authorised users signed in to our client portals. They are always on.

·       Analytics cookies. These are set by our website platform, Squarespace, only if you accept them. They help us count visitors, see how people arrive at our website and which pages they view, so that we can improve its content. The information is used only to produce statistics for us.

We do not use advertising or targeting cookies, social media tracking pixels or Google Analytics.

Some cookies are session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser. Others are persistent cookies, which stay on your device until they expire or you delete them. The table below shows how long each one lasts.

First and third party cookies

First party cookies are set by the website you are visiting. Third party cookies are set by a different website, for example an advertising network. The cookies on our website are set on our domain by our website platform, Squarespace, and the cookie on our client portals is set on our portal domain by Cloudflare, which provides our portal sign-in. Both act as our service providers. The one exception is our contact form, which uses Google reCAPTCHA to protect it from spam. reCAPTCHA sets a third party cookie on Google’s domain. Google may also read or set other cookies on its own domain under its own cookie and privacy policies.

Our newsletter page sets no cookies. It loads its fonts from Google Fonts, which does not set cookies but does receive your IP address. Our Privacy Notice explains this.

We have turned off open and click tracking in our newsletter emails, so we do not see whether you open them or which links you click. Our newsletter provider, Mailchimp, may still route links through its own servers for a limited period to detect abuse and protect email delivery.

Our website links to our LinkedIn and Instagram pages. If you follow those links, those platforms set their own cookies under their own cookie and privacy policies.

Your choices

When you first visit our website, a banner lets you accept all cookies, decline all non-essential cookies, or choose which types to allow using "Manage cookies". No analytics cookies are set until you accept them.

You can change your choice at any time using the Cookie Preferences button at the bottom of every page of our website. If you withdraw your consent, we will stop setting analytics cookies from then on. To remove analytics cookies already stored on your device, you can delete them in your browser settings. Please refresh the page to make sure your new settings have taken effect.

You can also set your browser to refuse some or all cookies, or to alert you when a cookie is set. Your browser's help pages explain how. If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of our website, including forms and client portal sign-in, may not work.

Changes to this policy

We will update this policy if we change the cookies we use. The date at the top shows when it was last updated.
