Cookie Policy — Capability House

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit it. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences over time — such as your language or display settings — so you do not have to re-enter them on every visit.

We also use related technologies such as local storage for similar purposes. In this policy, "cookies" refers to these technologies collectively.

2. How we use cookies

We use cookies to keep the site functioning correctly, to remember your preferences, and to understand in aggregate how readers use our reports so we can improve them. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles that follow you across unrelated websites.

3. Categories of cookies we use

Strictly necessary. Required for the site to work, such as remembering accessibility or display preferences. These cannot be switched off.
Performance and analytics. Help us understand which reports are read and how visitors navigate the site, using aggregated data.
Functionality. Remember choices you make to provide a more personal experience, such as your reading preferences.
Advertising. If advertising is ever introduced, this category would be used to measure campaign performance. We will update this policy before any advertising cookies are set.

4. Cookies we may set

The table below is illustrative of the kinds of cookies a site like ours may use. It describes typical names, purposes and lifetimes.

Representative cookie table
Name	Category	Purpose	Duration
session_id	Strictly necessary	Maintains a browsing session while you read	Session
preferences	Functionality	Stores display and reading preferences	12 months
analytics_id	Analytics	Distinguishes visitors in aggregate statistics	12 months
analytics_session	Analytics	Groups page views into a single visit	30 minutes
newsletter_state	Functionality	Remembers whether you have dismissed a prompt	6 months

5. Third-party cookies

Some features may rely on third-party services — for example, an analytics provider that measures aggregate traffic. Those providers may set their own cookies, and their use of information is governed by their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies.

6. How to manage cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies, and set preferences for specific sites. The exact steps vary, but the general locations are:

Chrome — Settings, Privacy and security, Cookies and other site data.
Firefox — Settings, Privacy & Security, Cookies and Site Data.
Safari — Settings or Preferences, Privacy.
Edge — Settings, Cookies and site permissions.

Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the site works. For more general information about cookies, consult your browser's help pages.

7. Consent

Where required by law, we ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time through your browser settings or the site's cookie controls, if provided.

8. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. Because there is no common industry standard for how to interpret DNT, our site does not currently respond to DNT signals. We continue to monitor developments in this area.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this cookie policy as our practices or the law change. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. We encourage you to review it periodically.
