Asterfield Cookie Policy
At Asterfield, operated by ASTERFIELD LTD (Company No. 789146), we take a privacy-first approach to cookies. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit our website or use our services. Cookies help us recognise your device, remember your preferences, and enhance your overall experience using Asterfield.
Cookies, Similar Technologies & Personal Data
When we use cookies or similar technologies, we may process personal data such as: your IP address, device identifier, browser details, usage patterns, or (when logged in) your user ID or email. Any personal data processed is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies for essential operations, security, performance, analytics, and to personalise the Asterfield experience. These purposes include:
- Operating and securing the platform
- Improving performance and reliability
- Remembering your preferences
- Understanding how customers use Asterfield
- Optimising product decisions and user experience
- Marketing and interest-based advertising (optional, with consent)
Types of Cookies We Use
These cookies are required for Asterfield to function. They enable:
- Login & authentication
- Session management (e.g., Sanctum auth cookies)
- Security and fraud prevention
- Cookie consent settings
These improve the performance and customisation of the platform. Without them, some non-essential features may not work as expected. Examples include: remembering form inputs, UI preferences, or browsing state.
These cookies help us understand how Asterfield is used, improve the product, and diagnose issues. We use:
- PostHog (EU-hosted): Provides analytics, event tracking and session replay to help us understand user behaviour, measure what works, and diagnose bugs and UX issues. On our public website, PostHog runs without cookies unless you accept them via our consent banner; accepting lets us recognise a returning visitor.
These cookies are set by platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn. They allow us to understand engagement, improve advertising relevance, and power sharing features—only with your consent.
These track your browsing behaviour across websites to deliver personalised ads and measure ad performance. They also ensure you do not repeatedly see the same ads. These cookies are only active if you give consent.
Some cookies are set by third-party providers who deliver services such as analytics, security, or advertising. We do not control these cookies directly but ensure all providers meet GDPR-compliant standards.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can manage, restrict, or disable cookies in several ways:
- Use the “Manage Consent” banner on our site
- Adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies
- Opt out of analytics or ads via browser extensions (optional)
Disabling certain cookies may impact the functionality or performance of Asterfield.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our services. Any updates will be posted here and will take effect immediately upon publication.
