1. How We Use Cookies & Similar Tech

Hydro Compliance uses cookies and similar technologies (localStorage, service workers) to operate m.hydrocompliance.uk and related mobile views. These help us sign you in, remember preferences, enable push notifications, measure usage, and protect the Service.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

• Strictly necessary – session/auth tokens, security cookies, load balancing.
• Preferences – UI settings (e.g., theme, sidebar state, selected company context).
• Optional analytics/performance – usage analytics and page activity tracking are disabled until you choose Accept cookies. Essential security and sign-in records remain active.
• Notifications – identifiers for web/mobile push (e.g., OneSignal IDs/FCM tokens) stored in cookies or localStorage.

3. Third‑Party Cookies

Some features rely on third parties which may set cookies when those features load or when you interact with them. Examples include push messaging (OneSignal/FCM) and billing (Stripe). Please refer to those providers’ policies for details.

4. Your Choices

• The home page notice lets you accept optional analytics or choose Essential cookies only. Before acceptance, and when essential-only is selected, optional analytics are disabled. Essential sign-in, security and cookie-choice storage remain available so the site can function.
• The notice remains on the home page until accepted, including after choosing essential cookies only. Previous acknowledgement of the old notice does not enable optional analytics.
• Most browsers let you block or delete cookies; doing so may affect sign‑in and core functionality.
• You can manage push notification permissions in your browser/device settings at any time.
• If your organisation requires, you may request tailored cookie settings—contact your company admin or our Support page.
