1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to improve the user experience, and to provide information to website owners.
2. How We Use Cookies
Happy Webs remembers your choice on this browser. Google Analytics runs by default for aggregate statistics to improve this website. You can object using Turn off analytics in the notice or Cookie settings in the footer. Microsoft Clarity session recordings require your separate consent.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
Necessary for the website to function. These are set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences or filling in forms.
Analytics Cookies
Google Analytics 4 helps us count visits and understand which pages and features work. We rely on the UK PECR statistical-purposes exception for this site-improvement use. Google acts as our processor; Google Signals, advertising personalisation and account data sharing are disabled, and this property is not linked to Google Ads. GA cookies expire after 60 days without renewal. Event and user-level data retention is set to two months.
Behavioural Analytics (Microsoft Clarity)
Microsoft Clarity provides heatmaps and session replays only after you choose Also allow session recordings. It uses cookies and records page interactions. Sensitive content is masked, but recordings are not anonymous aggregate statistics. You can withdraw permission through Cookie settings. See Microsoft's Privacy Statement.
Functional Cookies
Enable enhanced functionality and personalisation, set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages, including Google Analytics 4 (site usage statistics) and Microsoft Clarity (behavioural analytics with masked form data). We do not control cookies set by third parties.
5. Managing Cookies
Choose Keep statistics only, Also allow session recordings, or Turn off analytics in the notice. Reopen it anytime using Cookie settings in the footer. Turning analytics off stops measurement immediately, clears our analytics cookies and remembers your objection on this browser. Previous objections remain respected. You can also control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse or accept cookies, delete existing cookies, and set preferences for certain websites.
