Cookie Notice

Controller: Markus Sullivan trading as FORGE Logic™, established in Greece; postal address 189 The Pavilion, St Stephens Road, Norwich NR1 3SJ, United Kingdom. FORGE Logic OÜ (Estonia) is in formation and will assume the controller role on incorporation; this Notice will be updated at that point.

1. Purpose

This Notice explains which cookies and similar technologies the FORGE Logic website uses, why, and how you control them.

2. What cookies and similar technologies are

Cookies are small data items a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage, which are browser stores used to remember settings, keep a session, protect a service or measure use. This Notice covers all of these.

3. Classification

Strictly necessary — required to provide the service you request, to record your consent choices, or to protect the site from automated abuse. These operate without optional consent.

Preferences — remember optional choices that are not essential. None currently in use.

Analytics — measure site use. See section 4 for the current position.

Marketing — advertising measurement and audience tools. Loaded only after you accept marketing cookies.

4. What is currently in use (live inventory, 28 August 2026)

Set before any consent choice (strictly necessary):

framerCookiesConsentMode — local storage — origin forgelogic.app — first party — records your cookie consent choices (necessary / preferences / analytics / marketing) — persistent until cleared — set by the Framer cookie banner.

framerCookiesDismissed — local storage — origin forgelogic.app — first party — records that you have responded to the banner — persistent until cleared — set when you make a choice.

cf.turnstile.u — local storage — origin challenges.cloudflare.com — third party (Cloudflare) — supports the Cloudflare Turnstile abuse-protection check on the contact form — persistent until cleared — set when the /contact page loads. No Cloudflare cookies were observed.

Website analytics (Framer):

The site is built and hosted on Framer. Framer’s built-in site analytics script (events.framer.com) loads on page view. In the live inventory no cookie, local storage or session storage item attributable to this script was observed either before or after consent. FORGE Logic treats this as cookieless, aggregated site measurement provided by Framer B.V. as hosting provider. If Framer changes this behaviour, this Notice and the consent configuration will be reviewed.

Set only after you accept marketing cookies:

_gcl_au — cookie — domain .forgelogic.app — first party, set by Google Ads (Google Ireland Limited) — advertising conversion measurement (links a contact-form submission to a Google Ads click) — 90 days.

_gcl_ls — local storage — origin forgelogic.app — first party, set by Google Ads — advertising conversion measurement — persistent until cleared.

Google Ads / DoubleClick scripts (googleads.g.doubleclick.net) — loaded after consent. Google may set cookies on its own domains for advertising measurement where your browser allows third-party cookies. None were observed in the FORGE Logic live inventory. See Google’s cookie information: https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies

LinkedIn Insight Tag (snap.licdn.com) — loaded after consent — LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company — advertising measurement and audience insights. LinkedIn may set cookies on its own domains where your browser allows third-party cookies. None were observed in the FORGE Logic live inventory. See LinkedIn’s cookie policy: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/cookie-policy

Not in use: no preference cookies, no Google Analytics, no session-recording or heat-mapping tools, no other advertising networks.

5. How consent works

On first visit the cookie banner is shown. Until you choose, Google Tag Manager runs with all consent signals denied (ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, analytics_storage) and no marketing script or storage is loaded.

Choosing Accept sends a consent update and loads the Google Ads and LinkedIn scripts described in section 4.

Choosing Reject leaves the denied state in place. Only the strictly necessary items in section 4 remain.

Refusal is as easy as acceptance. Your choice is stored in framerCookiesConsentMode so you are not asked again on every page.

Consent defaults apply to all visitors regardless of location.

6. Changing or withdrawing consent

You can change your choice at any time using the cookie settings control on the website. You can also clear site data in your browser, which resets the banner. Blocking the strictly necessary items may stop the contact form from working.

Browser guidance: Chrome — chrome://settings/cookies; Safari — Settings > Privacy; Firefox — Settings > Privacy & Security; Edge — Settings > Cookies and site permissions.

7. Third parties and international transfers

Cloudflare (Turnstile), Framer B.V. (hosting and site analytics), Google Ireland Limited (Google Tag Manager, Google Ads) and LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company (Insight Tag) receive technical browser information when their scripts load. Where data is transferred outside the EEA/UK (including to the United States), FORGE Logic relies on the safeguards described in the FORGE Logic Privacy Notice.

8. Your privacy rights

Personal data generated through these technologies is processed as described in the FORGE Logic Privacy Notice, which explains your rights and how to exercise them. Privacy contact: privacy@forgelogic.app

9. Changes to this notice

Any addition or change to browser technologies on the website triggers a repeat of the live inventory and, where needed, an updated Notice and consent configuration before release. Version history is retained in the FORGE Logic legal document set.
