Cookie Policy

Maurbel Integrated Services Ltd
Last Updated: 1 November 2025

Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Maurbel Integrated Services Ltd uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at www.maurbel.com. It provides information about what cookies are, why we use them, the types of cookies we deploy, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. This policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy, which provides comprehensive information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal data.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They serve various functions, from enabling basic website functionality to remembering your preferences and helping us understand how visitors interact with our site. Cookies contain limited information and cannot execute programs or deliver viruses to your device. Most websites use cookies because they make the online experience more efficient and personalised for users.

Cookies can be session cookies, which are temporary and deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a specified period or until you manually delete them. They can also be first-party cookies set by the website you’re visiting, or third-party cookies set by other organisations whose services we use on our site.

How We Use Cookies

We deploy cookies on www.maurbel.com to enhance your browsing experience and improve our services. Specifically, we use cookies to ensure our website functions properly and securely, to remember your preferences and settings such as language choice or region, to understand how visitors use our website so we can identify areas for improvement, and to provide you with relevant information and services tailored to your needs.

When you first visit our website, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. Your consent choices are recorded so that you do not see the banner on subsequent visits. You can change your preferences at any time using the Cookie Settings link available in our website footer.

Categories of Cookies

We categorise the cookies we use based on their purpose and function. Each category serves a distinct purpose in supporting our website operations and enhancing your user experience.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are essential for the operation of our website and cannot be disabled in our systems. These cookies are typically set only in response to actions you take that amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging into secure areas, or filling in forms. Without these cookies, certain services you have requested cannot be provided, and our website may not function as intended.

Examples of strictly necessary cookies include session cookies that maintain your logged-in status as you navigate between pages, security cookies that help us detect authentication abuses and protect your data from unauthorised access, and cookie consent cookies that record your cookie preferences so we can respect your choices. Because these cookies are essential for website functionality and security, you cannot opt out of them. However, you may set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, though doing so may cause some parts of the website to not function properly.

Performance Cookies

Performance cookies, also known as analytics cookies, collect information about how visitors use our website. They help us understand which pages are most frequently visited, how long visitors spend on different pages, what error messages are encountered, and how users navigate through our site. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymous, meaning we cannot identify individual visitors.

We use performance cookies primarily through services such as Google Analytics to monitor website traffic patterns and user behaviour. The data collected helps us identify areas where we can improve website performance, optimise content placement, and enhance the overall user experience. You can opt out of performance cookies if you prefer. The website will continue to function normally, but we will not be able to gather the insights needed to improve your browsing experience or understand which content is most valuable to our visitors.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enable our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalised features. These cookies allow us to remember your preferred language, your region or location settings, and other customisable aspects of your browsing experience. They may also be used to provide services you have specifically requested, such as watching embedded videos or accessing interactive features.

Examples include cookies that remember your language preference so content is displayed in your chosen language on return visits, cookies that remember regional settings to show you location-relevant information, and cookies associated with video players from services such as YouTube or Vimeo that remember your playback preferences. You can opt out of functional cookies, though doing so may result in some website features not working as intended or may require you to re-enter preferences each time you visit.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies, also referred to as advertising or targeting cookies, are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They track your browsing activity across websites and may be set by us or by third-party advertising networks with our permission. These cookies remember that you have visited our website and may share this information with other organisations, such as advertisers and social media platforms.

Marketing cookies also limit the number of times you see a particular advertisement and help us measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. We may use marketing cookies through services such as Google Ads for search and display advertising, Facebook Pixel for social media advertising and audience targeting, LinkedIn Insight Tag for professional network advertising, and various retargeting and remarketing platforms to show relevant advertisements to people who have previously visited our website.

You can opt out of marketing cookies at any time. If you do so, you will continue to see advertisements while browsing the internet, but these advertisements will not be personalised based on your browsing behaviour and interests. They will be more generic in nature.

Specific Cookies Deployed on Our Website

Our website uses several specific cookies to support the functions described above. Session and consent management cookies are set by Maurbel to maintain your browsing session and record your cookie preferences. The cookie consent cookie stores your acceptance or rejection of different cookie categories and is retained for one year. Session identification cookies maintain your active session as you navigate our website and are automatically deleted when you close your browser.

For website analytics and performance monitoring, we use Google Analytics cookies. The primary Google Analytics cookie distinguishes unique users and collects anonymised usage data, remaining on your device for two years. A supplementary identifier cookie provides additional user distinction and expires after 24 hours. A request throttling cookie limits the rate of data collection to Google Analytics servers and expires after one minute.

Marketing and advertising cookies include those set by Facebook and LinkedIn. The Facebook browser identifier tracks visits across websites to enable Facebook advertising and audience targeting, stored for three months. The LinkedIn cookie stores consent for LinkedIn cookies and tracks visits for advertising purposes, remaining active for two years.

We may update the specific cookies used on our website as we add or modify services. This Cookie Policy will be updated to reflect any significant changes to our cookie deployment.

Third-Party Cookies and Services

Certain cookies on our website are placed by third-party services that we use to enhance functionality or deliver specific features. We do not control these third-party cookies directly, and you should consult the relevant third-party privacy and cookie policies to understand how these organisations collect and use your information.

Google Analytics provides website analytics and performance monitoring services. Their privacy policy is available at https://policies.google.com/privacy, and they offer tools to control how your data is used by Google Analytics. Google Ads and the Google Marketing Platform support our advertising and remarketing efforts, with privacy information at https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads. Facebook integration enables social media features and advertising capabilities, with their privacy policy available at https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy. LinkedIn provides professional networking integration and advertising services, with privacy details at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.

When we embed videos or other media from services such as YouTube or Vimeo, these platforms may set cookies on your device. YouTube’s privacy policy is available at https://policies.google.com/privacy, and Vimeo’s privacy policy can be found at https://vimeo.com/privacy. We recommend reviewing these third-party policies to understand how your data may be collected and used when interacting with embedded content or services on our website.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have several options for managing cookies and controlling your privacy preferences. We provide tools directly on our website and you can also use your browser settings to exercise greater control.

Managing Cookies on Our Website

You can modify your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the Cookie Settings link located in the footer of our website. This will open our cookie preference centre, where you can choose to accept all cookies for an optimal browsing experience, reject all non-essential cookies if you prefer minimal data collection, or customise your preferences by selecting which categories of cookies you wish to accept or reject.

Your preferences will be saved and applied to all future visits to our website from the same browser and device. If you use multiple browsers or devices, you will need to set your preferences separately for each. If you clear your browser cookies, you may need to reset your preferences.

Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

All modern web browsers provide built-in tools for managing cookies. Through your browser settings, you can view which cookies are currently stored on your device, delete all cookies or remove specific cookies selectively, block all cookies from being set, block only third-party cookies while allowing first-party cookies, and configure your browser to clear all cookies automatically when you close it.

The process for managing cookies varies by browser. In Google Chrome, navigate to Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and other site data. Detailed guidance is available at https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95647. In Mozilla Firefox, go to Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Cookies and Site Data, with help available at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cookies-information-websites-store-on-your-computer. For Microsoft Edge, access Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Cookies and site data, with assistance at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/delete-cookies-in-microsoft-edge-63947406-40ac-c3b8-57b9-2a946a29ae09. Safari users should go to Preferences, then Privacy, then Cookies and website data, with guidance at https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/safari/sfri11471/mac.

Please be aware that blocking or deleting cookies may impact your experience on our website. Some features may not function properly, you may need to re-enter information or preferences on each visit, and the website may not remember your settings or choices.

Opting Out of Advertising Cookies

If you prefer not to receive personalised advertising based on your browsing behaviour, several industry-standard opt-out mechanisms are available. Google Ads Settings at https://adssettings.google.com allows you to control the types of ads you see from Google. Facebook Ad Settings at https://www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=ads lets you manage your Facebook advertising preferences. LinkedIn Ad Settings at https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out enables you to opt out of LinkedIn advertising.

Broader industry opt-out services include Your Online Choices at https://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk for UK and European users, the Network Advertising Initiative at https://optout.networkadvertising.org for US users, and the Digital Advertising Alliance at https://optout.aboutads.info, also serving US users.

It is important to understand that opting out of advertising cookies does not mean you will stop seeing advertisements entirely. You will continue to encounter advertisements while browsing the internet, but these ads will not be tailored to your interests or browsing history. Instead, you will see more generic advertisements that may be less relevant to your needs and preferences.

Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers incorporate a Do Not Track feature that signals to websites that you do not wish to have your online activity tracked. Currently, there is no universal technical standard or agreed-upon interpretation of how websites should respond to Do Not Track signals. Different browsers implement this feature in different ways, and there is ongoing debate about its effectiveness and application.

At present, our website does not respond to Do Not Track signals. However, you retain full control over cookies through the cookie consent banner we present on your first visit, the Cookie Settings link available in our footer, and your browser’s cookie management settings as described above. These tools provide effective means to control how cookies are used on your device when visiting our website.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in the cookies we use, developments in cookie technology, updates to applicable legislation, changes to our business operations, or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this policy to indicate when the most recent modifications were made.

We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies and how you can manage your preferences. If we make significant changes that materially affect how we use cookies or your privacy, we will notify you by displaying a prominent notice on our website or through other appropriate means before the changes take effect. Your continued use of our website after such notification will indicate your acceptance of the updated Cookie Policy.
