Privacy & Cookie Policy

We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we use data. This document explains our approach to personal data and the use of cookies on our website.

1. Introduction

Kilo CMP ("we", "us", or "our") acts as the Data Controller for any personal information processed through this website. Given the nature of our consultancy, we take a "privacy-by-design" approach to our own digital presence.

2. Information We Collect

Because we do not use contact forms on our website, we do not collect personal data from you simply by you browsing the site, unless you explicitly provide it or consent to analytical tracking.

A. Direct Communication

If you contact us via the email address provided on our website, we will collect:

• Your name (if provided).
• Your email address.
• Any information you choose to include in your message.

Legal Basis: We process this data based on Legitimate Interests (responding to your inquiry) or Contractual Necessity (if we are discussing a potential project).

B. Analytical Data (Cookies)

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors interact with our site. This involves the use of cookies (small text files) to distinguish unique users and sessions.

3. How We Use Cookies & Consent Mode

We respect your right to privacy. We have implemented a Consent Management Platform (CMP) that supports Google Consent Mode v2.

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off.
• Analytical Cookies: We only trigger Google Analytics tags if you grant explicit consent via our cookie banner (analytics_storage).
• Consent Mode v2: If you deny consent, Google Analytics operates in a "restricted" mode. It will not store cookies, but may send "pings" to Google for basic measurement without identifying you personally.

Cookie Inventory

Below is a list of the specific analytical cookies we use on this site:

Changing Your Preferences

You can update your consent preferences at any time by clicking the "Manage Consent" link floating at the bottom of the screen.

4. Data Sharing and Transfers

• Analytics: Data collected via GA4 is processed by Google. We have enabled data anonymization features where possible.
• No Sale of Data: We never sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required to do so by law.

5. Data Retention

• Inquiries: We keep email correspondence for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose of the communication or to comply with legal record-keeping obligations.
• Analytics: GA4 user-level and event-level data is set to the minimum retention period (typically 2 months).

6. Your Rights

Under the GDPR and UK Data Protection Act, you have the right to access, correct, or erase your data, and the right to object to processing. To exercise these rights, please contact us.
