1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website you visit. They allow the site to recognise your device and store certain information between page loads or visits.

Cookies can be session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (stored on your device until they expire or you delete them).

2. Cookies we use

ShiftGuard uses only the cookies necessary to operate the service. These fall into two categories:

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the website and application to function. Without them, services such as logging in and maintaining your session cannot be provided. Because they are strictly necessary, they do not require your consent under UK GDPR or the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).

Analytics cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our public website (page views, session duration, traffic sources). The data is aggregated and anonymous — no personally identifiable information is collected or shared.

Analytics cookies are only placed with your consent where required by law. You can opt out at any time via your browser settings or the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

3. Third-party cookies

Some cookies on our site are set by third-party services (such as Google Analytics). These third parties have their own privacy policies, and we have no access to or control over those cookies. We encourage you to review their privacy policies separately.

4. How to control cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in and using the ShiftGuard application. Disabling analytics cookies will have no effect on the application's functionality.
