Cookie Notice

Last updated: May 26, 2026

This Cookie Notice explains how SiteEngine Web Services LLC, a Florida limited liability company, doing business as SiteEngine, North Georgia Web, and North Florida Web (“SiteEngine,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), uses cookies, localStorage, pixels, tags, scripts, analytics tools, advertising technologies, consent-management tools, security tools, and similar technologies.

This Cookie Notice applies to SiteEngine websites, client portals, landing pages, forms, analytics, advertising, consent-management systems, and related online services operated by or on behalf of SiteEngine.

This Cookie Notice supplements the SiteEngine Privacy Notice, Privacy Notice Addendum, SMS/Text Messaging Policy, Email and Messaging Terms, and Terms of Service.

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small files placed on your browser or device when you visit a website. Cookies may help websites function, remember preferences, maintain sessions, secure accounts, understand traffic, measure advertising, store consent choices, or personalize content.

Similar technologies may include localStorage, sessionStorage, pixels, tags, scripts, software development kits, server logs, device identifiers, and other browser or device storage technologies.

2. Why We Use Cookies and Similar Technologies

SiteEngine may use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Operate websites and client portals.
• Maintain login sessions and account security.
• Remember privacy and cookie preferences.
• Store consent choices and consent receipt identifiers.
• Prevent fraud, spam, abuse, and unauthorized access.
• Measure website traffic and performance.
• Understand how visitors interact with our websites.
• Support forms, quote requests, support requests, and client communications.
• Measure advertising and marketing performance.
• Support conversion tracking, remarketing, and audience measurement where permitted.
• Debug technical issues and improve website functionality.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We may use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies:

• Strictly necessary cookies: These are required for website operation, security, account login, form functionality, shopping cart or checkout behavior, client portal access, consent storage, and fraud prevention.
• Functionality cookies: These remember preferences, settings, and choices that improve website functionality.
• Analytics cookies: These help us understand website traffic, visitor behavior, performance, errors, page usage, and marketing attribution.
• Advertising cookies: These may be used to measure advertising performance, support remarketing, attribute conversions, build audiences, or deliver more relevant advertising where permitted.
• Personalization cookies: These may be used to personalize content, remember visitor preferences, or support tailored experiences where permitted.
• Security cookies: These help detect abuse, fraud, spam, bots, attacks, suspicious behavior, unauthorized access, and other security risks.
• Consent cookies and storage: These store your consent choices, consent state, banner version, policy version, receipt ID, and related preference information.

4. Consent Management

SiteEngine may use a consent-management system to present a cookie or privacy banner, record visitor choices, and control certain analytics, advertising, and personalization technologies based on those choices.

Where deployed, the consent banner may offer options such as Accept All, Manage Preferences, and Reject Non-Essential.

Your choices may be stored in a first-party cookie and browser localStorage so the website can remember your preferences.

You may be prompted again if the consent banner, policy version, or consent configuration materially changes.

5. SiteEngine Consent Cookie

Where SiteEngine’s consent-management system is deployed, it may use a first-party cookie named se_consent or a similar SiteEngine consent cookie.

This cookie may store consent state, consent categories, consent method, consent receipt ID, banner version, policy version, timestamp, and related consent metadata.

The consent cookie is used to remember your choices and support audit-defensible consent records.

The consent cookie may remain on your browser for up to 390 days unless you clear it earlier or the applicable site is configured differently.

6. LocalStorage

Where SiteEngine’s consent-management system is deployed, it may also use browser localStorage to store consent state and consent receipt information.

LocalStorage may include values such as se_consent_state and se_consent_receipt_id or similar values used to remember your privacy choices.

LocalStorage may remain in your browser until it expires, is overwritten, or is cleared by you, your browser, or your device settings.

7. Consent Receipts

Where SiteEngine’s consent-management system is deployed, a consent interaction may create a consent receipt or audit record.

Consent receipt records may include receipt ID, consent method, banner version, policy version, consent state, Google Consent Mode state, page URL, referrer URL, timestamp, hashed IP address, hashed user agent, and related technical metadata.

Consent receipts are used to maintain evidence of privacy choices, troubleshoot consent behavior, support privacy requests, support advertising-compliance workflows, and determine whether downstream analytics or advertising processing should occur.

8. Google Consent Mode

SiteEngine may use Google Consent Mode or similar consent-aware tools to manage how Google tags behave based on visitor consent choices.

Consent signals may include:

• ad_storage
• analytics_storage
• ad_user_data
• ad_personalization
• personalization_storage
• functionality_storage
• security_storage

Where configured, the default state for certain analytics and advertising signals may be set to denied before Google tags load, then updated based on your actual consent choices.

Functionality and security storage may remain enabled where necessary for website operation, security, fraud prevention, and basic functionality.

9. Analytics Technologies

We may use analytics technologies to understand how visitors use our websites and services.

Analytics technologies may collect or receive information such as page views, referral sources, device type, browser type, approximate location, session behavior, campaign data, click behavior, form interactions, and technical events.

Analytics tools may include Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, server logs, consent-aware analytics tools, or other measurement systems.

Where required or configured, analytics technologies may depend on your consent choices.

10. Advertising and Conversion Technologies

We may use advertising and conversion technologies to measure campaign performance, attribute conversions, support remarketing, build audiences, and improve marketing.

These technologies may include Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, advertising pixels, conversion tags, remarketing tags, call tracking, form tracking, Customer Match workflows, enhanced conversions, or similar tools.

Where required or configured, advertising technologies may depend on your consent choices.

If you deny advertising consent, certain advertising storage, personalization, matching, or conversion-processing functions may be restricted to the extent supported by the applicable tools.

11. Customer Match and Consent-Gated Uploads

Where SiteEngine supports Google Ads Customer Match, enhanced conversions, offline conversion uploads, or similar advertising features, consent state may be used to determine whether submitted information is eligible for advertising-related processing.

Where configured, form submissions may include hidden consent fields that identify consent state at the time of submission.

SiteEngine may use consent-gating logic so that identifiers such as email addresses or phone numbers are hashed, uploaded, matched, or used for advertising-related processing only when the applicable consent gate is satisfied.

12. Form-Related Consent Data

Where SiteEngine’s consent-management system is deployed with form tools, forms may include hidden fields that capture consent-related data.

These fields may include consent receipt ID, advertising consent, analytics consent, personalization consent, consent method, policy version, banner version, timestamp, page URL, and Google Consent Mode values.

Where technically supported, server-side logic may verify or override client-supplied consent values with a more authoritative consent source to reduce tampering risk.

13. Security and Fraud Prevention Technologies

We may use cookies, scripts, logs, rate limits, security tools, firewalls, spam-prevention tools, CAPTCHA or similar tools, and monitoring technologies to protect websites and services.

These technologies may help detect spam, bots, abuse, fraud, malware, phishing, brute-force attempts, suspicious traffic, unauthorized access, and other security risks.

Security and fraud-prevention technologies may be considered necessary for website operation and may not be disabled through ordinary cookie preference tools.

14. Third-Party Cookies and Tools

Third-party providers may set cookies or collect information through our websites or tools.

These providers may include analytics providers, advertising platforms, tag managers, security vendors, embedded-content providers, form tools, chat tools, payment processors, video platforms, map providers, social media platforms, call-tracking providers, and other service providers.

Third-party providers process information under their own terms and privacy notices.

SiteEngine does not control all third-party cookies or tracking technologies once they are set by third-party services.

15. Embedded Content

Our websites may include embedded content from third parties, such as videos, maps, social media posts, forms, calendars, scheduling tools, payment tools, review widgets, or other external content.

Embedded content may behave as if you visited the third-party website directly. The third party may collect information, use cookies, track interactions, or apply its own privacy settings.

You should review the privacy notices and cookie policies of those third parties for more information.

16. Managing Cookie Preferences

Where a cookie banner or preference tool is available, you may use it to manage certain non-essential cookie, analytics, advertising, and personalization preferences.

You may also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or restrict cookies.

Blocking or deleting cookies may affect website functionality, account login, form behavior, client portal access, security tools, consent records, analytics, advertising, and preference storage.

If you clear cookies or localStorage, use a different browser, use a different device, or browse in private mode, you may need to set your preferences again.

17. Browser Controls

Browser controls may allow you to delete existing cookies, block future cookies, restrict third-party cookies, clear localStorage, or limit tracking.

Browser controls vary by browser and device.

Some controls may affect the functionality of SiteEngine websites or services.

18. Opt-Out Preference Signals

Some browsers or extensions may transmit opt-out preference signals, including Global Privacy Control or similar signals.

Where required by applicable law and technically feasible, SiteEngine will honor legally recognized opt-out preference signals for applicable processing.

Because technical standards and legal requirements vary, SiteEngine may process different browser signals differently depending on the applicable site, configuration, jurisdiction, and available tools.

19. Do Not Track

Some browsers transmit Do Not Track signals.

There is not a single industry-wide standard for how websites should respond to Do Not Track signals.

Where required by applicable law or where technically supported by SiteEngine’s systems, SiteEngine may treat certain recognized browser signals as opt-out or preference signals for applicable processing.

20. Cookie Duration

Cookies and similar technologies may be session-based or persistent.

Session cookies generally expire when you close your browser.

Persistent cookies remain until they expire, are deleted, are overwritten, or are cleared by your browser or device.

Consent cookies used by SiteEngine’s consent-management system may remain for up to 390 days unless cleared earlier or configured differently for a particular site.

Other cookies may have different retention periods depending on the provider, purpose, and configuration.

21. Changes to Consent Settings

You may change your consent preferences where a preference-management tool is available.

Changing your preferences may affect future processing but may not delete information already collected or processed before the change.

To request access, deletion, correction, or other privacy rights related to personal information, contact SiteEngine using the information below or see the SiteEngine Privacy Notice.

22. Cookies on Customer Websites

SiteEngine may implement, configure, maintain, or support cookies and consent-management tools on customer websites.

For customer websites, the customer is generally responsible for determining which cookies, analytics tools, advertising tools, consent mechanisms, privacy notices, cookie notices, and legal disclosures are appropriate for that customer’s business and audience.

SiteEngine may provide technical implementation support, but SiteEngine does not provide legal advice about whether a customer’s cookie banner, consent flow, cookie notice, privacy notice, or tracking configuration satisfies all applicable legal requirements unless expressly agreed in writing.

23. No Guarantee of Complete Blocking

SiteEngine uses commercially reasonable efforts to configure consent tools according to the applicable site setup and service scope.

However, SiteEngine does not guarantee that every third-party script, cookie, pixel, tag, embedded tool, browser behavior, cache condition, plugin behavior, or external platform will respond perfectly to every consent setting.

Some third-party tools may set cookies or collect information independently of SiteEngine’s control.

24. Changes to This Cookie Notice

SiteEngine may update this Cookie Notice from time to time.

Updated versions will be posted on our website with a revised “Last updated” date.

Your continued use of SiteEngine websites or services after an updated Cookie Notice is posted means you accept the updated notice to the extent permitted by law.
