This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies softcloudapi.digital uses, and how you can control your cookie preferences. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website operators about how the site is being used. Cookies are not executable programs and cannot access or alter files on your device.
In addition to cookies, our website may use similar technologies including local storage and session storage. This policy covers all such technologies collectively.
These cookies are essential for the website to function. They enable core functions such as navigation and access to secure areas. They do not collect information about you that could be used for marketing, and they cannot be switched off without affecting how the website works.

No consent is required to place strictly necessary cookies. They are placed automatically when you visit the site.
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting information about which pages are visited, how long visitors spend on each page, and how they arrived at the site. This information is used in aggregate form to improve the website. We do not use this data to identify individual visitors.

Analytics cookies are only placed with your consent. You may withdraw consent at any time using the cookie preference panel below.
When you first visit the site, a cookie preference panel appears on the right side of the screen. You may accept all cookies or choose to accept only strictly necessary cookies. Your preference is stored and the panel will not reappear unless you clear your cookies or use a different device or browser.
You may update your preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer, which will reopen the preference panel.
You may also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies. Blocking all cookies will affect the functionality of many websites, including this one. Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers are available at the browser developer's support pages.
For Google Analytics specifically, you may opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
This Cookie Policy may be updated when we change the cookies in use on this site or when regulatory guidance changes. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was most recently revised. Changes that materially affect how non-essential cookies are used will be accompanied by a renewed consent prompt.
