Overview

Somira uses only essential cookies required for basic site functionality. No tracking cookies, analytics cookies, or third-party cookies are employed. This policy explains our minimal cookie use.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your browser that persist data across page visits. They allow websites to remember information about you between sessions.

Essential Cookies Only

Somira uses only essential cookies necessary for the site to function properly. These include:

  • Cookie Consent Cookie: Remembers your cookie consent choice so the banner does not repeatedly appear
  • Session Cookies (if applicable): Used for form processing and basic navigation

Cookies NOT Used

  • Analytics cookies (Google Analytics, similar tracking services)
  • Advertising cookies (retargeting, behavioural advertising)
  • Third-party cookies
  • Social media tracking cookies
  • Profiling or personalisation cookies

Cookie Consent

When you first visit the site, a cookie consent banner appears. Clicking "Accept" sets the consent cookie. Clicking "Reject" declines non-essential cookies (though essential cookies for site function remain necessary). You can change your choice anytime by clearing browser cookies.

Managing Cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings:

Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data

Firefox: Preferences → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data

  • View cookies stored on your device
  • Delete individual cookies
  • Block cookies entirely
  • Clear cookies automatically when closing the browser

Disabling Cookies

If you disable all cookies, some site features may not function properly (forms may not process correctly). Essential cookies for basic operation are necessary for the site to work as intended.

Third-Party Sites

This policy covers only cookies set by Somira. If you click links to external websites, those sites have their own cookie policies. Somira is not responsible for third-party cookie practices.

Policy Updates

This cookie policy may be updated periodically. Changes will be reflected with an updated effective date. Continued site use indicates acceptance of current policy.
