Cookie Policy

Effective: October 8, 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how A.R.K. Consulting LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar browser technologies on ark-consulting-llc.com (the "Site"). By continuing to use the Site, you consent to our use of these technologies as described below.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit - such as your language preference or consent choices - to make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you. Cookies cannot run programs or deliver viruses to your device.

The Site also uses localStorage, a similar browser-based storage mechanism that keeps data on your device without sending it to a server. It functions like a cookie but has no expiration date unless cleared by the user or the application.

Cookies and Storage We Use

The table below lists every cookie and local storage entry set by or on behalf of this Site.

We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, advertising networks, or any behavioral tracking technology on this Site. Our analytics provider (Vercel) collects only anonymous, aggregate data and sets no cookies.

Why We Use These Technologies

The strictly necessary cookies and storage listed above exist for two purposes:

• Consent memory: Storing your acknowledgment of this policy so you are not presented with the same banner on every visit.
• Infrastructure reliability: Ensuring the Site loads correctly and is protected from malicious traffic through our hosting provider, Vercel.

We do not use cookies for marketing, retargeting, behavioral profiling, or cross-site tracking of any kind.

Third-Party Services

The Site is hosted on Vercel and deployed via GitHub (source repository). Vercel operates the global content delivery network (CDN) that serves this Site. As a necessary part of delivering web content, Vercel's infrastructure may set session-level technical cookies. These are governed by Vercel's Privacy Policy.

GitHub is used solely as a code repository and does not interact with your browser when you visit this Site.

Contact forms on this Site submit data through Web3Forms, a form handling service. Web3Forms does not set cookies on your browser. Data submitted through our contact form (name, email, and message) is transmitted to us via Web3Forms and is governed by our Privacy Policy.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can control and delete cookies and browser storage at any time through your browser settings. Instructions for the most common browsers:

• Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
• Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
• Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
• Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies

Clearing your browser storage will remove the ark_cookie_ok preference and the consent banner will reappear on your next visit. Blocking strictly necessary infrastructure cookies may prevent some pages from loading correctly.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, or our services. When we do, we will revise the effective date above. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the Site after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
