This Cookie Policy explains how In Force Security (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you access, browse, or otherwise interact with our website (the “Website”).
Cookies are used to support the secure, stable, and efficient operation of the Website. They allow us to maintain system functionality, ensure platform security, support essential features, and provide a consistent and reliable user experience. Certain cookies are necessary for the Website to operate properly, and without them, some services or features may not function as intended.
Cookies may also be used to understand how the Website is accessed and used, identify technical issues, monitor performance, and improve functionality. Such use is limited to legitimate operational and analytical purposes and is carried out in a manner that respects user privacy and applicable data protection requirements.
This Cookie Policy forms part of In Force Security’s broader data protection and information governance framework. It should be read together with our Privacy Notice, which provides detailed information on how personal data is collected, used, protected, and governed across our operations.
A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer, mobile phone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to enable websites to function effectively, securely, and in accordance with user expectations.
Cookies allow the Website to recognize your device and retain certain information about your visit, such as session identifiers, technical settings, or user preferences. Cookies may be stored temporarily for the duration of your session (session cookies) or for a longer period (persistent cookies), depending on their purpose.
Cookies do not, by themselves, directly identify you as an individual. However, in certain circumstances, information collected through cookies may be associated with other data and may therefore be considered personal data under applicable privacy and data protection laws. Where this occurs, such data is handled in accordance with our Privacy Notice and applicable legal requirements.
In Force Security does not use cookies for intrusive tracking, profiling, or purposes unrelated to the secure and legitimate operation of the Website. The use of cookies is assessed for necessity, proportionality, and compliance with applicable legal standards.
For general information about cookies and how they work, independent resources are available at:
In addition to traditional browser cookies, the Website may use other technologies that perform similar functions in support of functionality, security, and performance. These technologies may include, without limitation:
These technologies are used for legitimate and proportionate purposes related to the operation, security, and improvement of the Website. They are not deployed for intrusive tracking, unauthorized profiling, or purposes unrelated to the services provided.
For clarity and simplicity, all such technologies are referred to collectively in this Cookie Policy as “cookies”, unless a specific distinction is required by applicable law.
Cookies may be categorized according to the length of time they remain active or stored on your device. The duration of a cookie depends on its purpose and the role it plays in supporting the operation of the Website.
4.1 Session Cookies
Session cookies are temporary cookies that exist only for the duration of your browsing session. They are automatically deleted when you close your web browser.
These cookies are used to support essential functions such as navigation continuity, authentication, security validation, and the proper operation of interactive features. Session cookies help ensure that actions taken during a single visit are processed correctly and securely, without being retained beyond the session.
Session cookies do not persist once the browsing session ends and are not used to track users across separate visits.
4.2 Persistent Cookies
Persistent cookies are stored on your device for a defined period or until they are deleted manually by you through your browser settings.
These cookies enable the Website to remember certain preferences or settings across visits, such as language selection, configuration choices, or other functional preferences. By doing so, persistent cookies contribute to a more efficient, consistent, and personalized user experience.
Persistent cookies are retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill their intended purpose and are subject to periodic review to ensure continued relevance, necessity, and compliance with applicable privacy requirements.
The Website uses several categories of cookies, each serving a specific and legitimate function in support of security, functionality, performance, and user experience. Cookies are deployed in a measured, proportionate, and purpose-driven manner, consistent with applicable privacy and data protection laws.
Each category of cookies is assessed to ensure that its use is necessary, appropriate, and aligned with the intended purpose. Cookies are not used indiscriminately, nor are they deployed in a manner that exceeds what is required for the secure and effective operation of the Website.
5.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are essential for the Website to function properly, reliably, and securely. These cookies enable core operational features and are fundamental to the delivery of services through the Website. As a result, they cannot be disabled through our consent management systems.
Strictly necessary cookies are required to:
These cookies operate independently of marketing or advertising activities. They do not collect information for promotional purposes, do not build user profiles, and do not track users across other websites, platforms, or services.
Because strictly necessary cookies are indispensable to the operation and security of the Website, their use does not require user consent under applicable laws. However, if you choose to block or delete these cookies through your browser settings, parts of the Website may not function as intended, certain features may be unavailable, and access to secure areas may be restricted or denied.
5.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies
Performance and analytics cookies are used to collect information about how users access, navigate, and interact with the Website. These cookies allow us to assess how the Website performs under normal usage conditions and to identify areas for improvement.
The information collected through performance and analytics cookies may include:
This information is used exclusively to:
Data collected through performance and analytics cookies is processed in aggregated, anonymized, or pseudonymized form wherever possible. It is not used to identify individual users, track individuals across unrelated services, or support targeted advertising without a lawful basis.
Where third-party analytics providers are engaged, In Force Security applies appropriate contractual, technical, and organizational safeguards. These measures ensure that such providers process data only on our instructions, solely for defined analytical purposes, and in compliance with applicable data protection and privacy laws.
5.3 Functionality Cookies
Functionality cookies enable the Website to remember choices, preferences, and settings you select, allowing for a more efficient, consistent, and user-friendly experience across visits.
These cookies may be used to:
Functionality cookies are intended to enhance convenience and usability. They do not collect information that directly identifies you as an individual, such as names or contact details. Any information processed through functionality cookies is limited to what is necessary to support the selected preferences or features.
Functionality cookies are subject to periodic review to ensure their continued relevance, necessity, and proportionality. Where functionality cookies are not essential, their use may be subject to applicable consent requirements, and users retain control over their deployment.
5.4 Targeting and Advertising Cookies
Where applicable, targeting or advertising cookies may be used to support the relevance, proportionality, and effectiveness of Website content, communications, or informational materials.
These cookies may be used to:
Targeting and advertising cookies do not store directly identifiable personal information such as names, addresses, or contact details. Instead, they rely on unique identifiers associated with your browser or device, which may be combined with other technical information for reporting and measurement purposes.
The use of targeting or advertising cookies is subject to applicable consent requirements. Where required by law, these cookies are deployed only after consent has been obtained. You may manage, restrict, or disable these cookies at any time through our consent management tools or through your browser settings. Your choices will be respected and will not prevent access to core Website functionality.
Certain cookies used on the Website may be placed by trusted third-party service providers acting on behalf of In Force Security. These third parties support specific functions such as analytics, security monitoring, system performance optimization, or technical infrastructure support.
Third-party cookies are deployed only where necessary and appropriate for the operation, protection, or improvement of the Website. Such cookies are subject to strict controls and oversight to ensure that their use remains consistent with this Cookie Policy and applicable privacy and data protection laws.
All third-party service providers that set cookies on our behalf are subject to:
We do not permit third-party cookies to be used for purposes incompatible with this Cookie Policy, including unauthorized tracking, profiling, or secondary use unrelated to the services provided. Third parties are not permitted to use data collected through cookies for their own independent purposes unless expressly permitted by law and disclosed to users.
When you access the Website for the first time, you will be presented with a cookie notice or banner that provides information about our use of cookies and allows you to manage your preferences.
Depending on the requirements of applicable law and your location, you may be given the option to:
Your cookie preferences are respected and implemented through our consent management mechanisms. Where required by law, non-essential cookies are placed only after your consent has been obtained.
You may review, modify, or withdraw your consent at any time through our cookie management tool or settings interface. Changes to your preferences will apply going forward and will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out prior to the modification.
In addition to our consent management tools, most web browsers provide controls that allow you to manage cookies directly through browser settings.
Depending on the browser used, you may be able to:
Please be aware that browser-level controls operate independently of our Website and may override or conflict with preferences set through our cookie management tool.
If you access the Website using multiple browsers or devices, your cookie preferences must be configured separately for each browser and device. Browser-level settings do not automatically synchronize across platforms.
Restricting, disabling, or deleting cookies—either through our consent management tools or via browser settings—may affect the functionality and performance of the Website.
In particular, disabling cookies may result in:
While we endeavor to ensure that core functionality remains available, we cannot guarantee optimal performance or full access to all Website features where cookies are restricted or disabled.
In Force Security operates internationally, and our use of cookies is designed to comply with applicable data protection and privacy laws across multiple jurisdictions.
This includes, where applicable:
Where multiple legal or regulatory frameworks apply, In Force Security adopts the highest applicable standard of protection to safeguard user rights and expectations. Our cookie practices are reviewed periodically to ensure continued compliance with evolving legal requirements and regulatory guidance.
This Cookie Policy applies solely to the Website operated by In Force Security.
We are not responsible for the cookie practices, privacy policies, or data handling activities of third-party websites, even where:
Once you leave our Website or access third-party content, the cookie practices of those third parties will apply. We encourage you to review the cookie and privacy policies of any external websites you visit to understand how your information may be processed.
In Force Security may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in:
Any updates will be published on the Website, and the revised policy will apply from the date of publication. We encourage users to review this Cookie Policy periodically to remain informed about how cookies are used and managed.
