1. What this covers
Cookies and similar technologies (browser storage, pixels, tags) used on the Seedway Academy website. Choices are managed through our cookie banner and the "Manage cookie preferences" link in the footer. This policy sits alongside our Privacy Policy.
2. What we use
| Category | Purpose | Examples | Needs consent? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Remember your cookie choice, protect forms from spam, keep the site working | Consent choice in local storage; Cloudflare Turnstile; session attribution storage while a form is completed | No |
| Analytics | Understand how the site is used | Vercel Web Analytics | Yes |
| Marketing and advertising | Measure and optimise ads, build audiences | Google Ads tag, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag | Yes |
| Embedded media | Play videos | YouTube, Vimeo (may set cookies when you play) | Yes, before playback |
3. Consent and how the tags behave
- Until you accept marketing cookies, the Meta Pixel and LinkedIn Insight Tag do not load.
- The Google tag loads in "consent mode" with advertising and analytics storage denied. In that state Google may receive limited, cookieless signals, and no advertising cookies are set. If you accept, full measurement starts.
- Embedded videos load only when you choose to play them.
4. Attribution data
If you arrive from an ad, we may capture campaign parameters (UTM tags and click IDs) in your browser's session storage and attach them to an enquiry you submit, so we can tell which campaigns work. Session storage clears when you close the tab.
5. Managing your choices
Change or withdraw consent at any time via "Manage cookie preferences". You can also block cookies in your browser settings, and opt out of ad personalisation in Google, Meta and LinkedIn account settings. Blocking necessary storage may stop forms from working.
6. Third parties
Google, Meta, LinkedIn, Vercel, Cloudflare, YouTube and Vimeo operate under their own privacy policies and may process data outside South Africa (see Privacy Policy section 7).
