Introduction

Signisys Consultancy Services (“Signisys,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website at www.signisys.com, including all subdomains, microsites, CyberPedia knowledge base, and blog platforms (collectively, the “Website”). This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies are, the specific types we use, why we use them, how they affect your privacy, and how you can manage, control, or disable them.

Signisys is incorporated and operates from India and serves clients and website visitors across the globe. This Cookie Policy applies to all users of our Website, regardless of location.

This Cookie Policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy (www.signisys.com/privacy-policy), which provides further details on how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information.

By continuing to browse or use our Website after reviewing the cookie consent banner, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy. Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, your consent is required for the use of cookies that process personal data. Strictly necessary cookies that do not process personal data for purposes beyond Website functionality may be deployed without consent, as they are essential for delivering the service you have requested.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files containing a string of characters that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide a better user experience, remember your preferences, and supply diagnostic and analytical information to website operators.

Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by third-party services that operate components on the website (“third-party cookies”).

Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use the following similar technologies, collectively referred to as “cookies” throughout this policy unless otherwise specified.

Web beacons (pixel tags, clear GIFs): Small, transparent image files embedded in web pages or emails that track whether a page has been visited or an email opened.

Local storage (HTML5 storage): A mechanism for storing data locally on your device with larger capacity than cookies. Local storage persists until explicitly deleted.

Session storage: Similar to local storage but cleared when the browser tab or window is closed.

JavaScript tags and SDKs: Code snippets that collect data about browsing behaviour, device characteristics, and content interactions for analytics and marketing.

Cookie Consent

When you first visit our Website, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or reject cookies by category (analytics, functionality, marketing). Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled. You can change your cookie preferences at any time through the “Cookie Preferences” link in our website footer or by adjusting your browser settings.

Your cookie consent choices are recorded and stored in a consent cookie on your device, and we maintain a record of your consent in accordance with applicable law.

Types of Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

Essential for the Website’s core functionality and security. They enable page navigation, form submission, authentication, and access to secure areas. These do not collect personal information for marketing or tracking purposes.

Examples: Session management cookies; security and CSRF prevention cookies; load-balancing cookies; cookie consent preference cookies; and authentication cookies.

Legal basis: Legitimate interest in providing a functional and secure Website. No consent required.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

Help us understand how visitors interact with the Website by collecting aggregated, anonymous usage data. They do not directly identify individuals.

We use this data to: Identify popular content; improve navigation and user experience; diagnose technical issues; measure content and campaign effectiveness; and make data-driven decisions.

Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics (Google LLC), which deploys the following cookies: _ga (distinguishes users, 2-year expiry), _ga_[ID] (persists session state, 2-year expiry), _gid (distinguishes users, 24-hour expiry), and _gat (throttles requests, 1-minute expiry).

Functionality Cookies

Remember your choices and provide enhanced, personalised features, including language and region preferences; cookie consent choices; display settings; content recommendations; and saved form data.

Disabling these may reduce personalisation and feature availability.

Marketing and Targeting Cookies

Deliver relevant advertisements, limit ad frequency, and measure campaign effectiveness. These may track browsing across websites and are set by our advertising partners.

Technologies we may use: LinkedIn Insight Tag (conversion tracking and audience targeting); Google Ads remarketing cookies; social media pixels (LinkedIn, Twitter/X); and email marketing tracking pixels.

Rejecting these means you will still see advertisements, but they will not be personalised.
