Cookie Policy (EU) - European Union
Last updated: 4 October 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Manolutions (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and services. This policy is designed to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy Directive.
What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit our website. They allow us to recognise your device and store certain information about your preferences or past actions.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following types of cookies:
-
Essential cookies: These are necessary for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems.
-
Performance cookies: These allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site.
-
Functionality cookies: These enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation.
-
Targeting cookies: These may be set through our site by our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites.
Your Consent
When you first visit our website, we will ask for your consent to set cookies on your device, except for strictly necessary cookies. You can choose to accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences for each category of cookies.
How to Manage Cookies
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking on the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer of our website. You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website.
Cookies We Set
These are the only cookies we set ourselves. Both are strictly necessary: they provide a service you have actively asked for, so they are set without waiting for your consent, and declining optional cookies does not switch them off.
| Cookie | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
np_cookie_consent | Remembers your cookie choices, so you are not asked again on every page, and so analytics and advertising stay switched off if you declined them. | 6 months |
np_vault_pass | Remembers you after you request a resource from our download library, so you are not asked for your name and email address again next time. It holds the name and email address you gave us, plus a random reference for your download library and the dates it was issued and expires. It cannot be read by scripts running in your browser, and it is never used for advertising. | 12 months |
Neither cookie is shared with a third party, and neither is used to track you across other websites.
Information Kept in Your Browser
Besides cookies, our website keeps a few small items in your browser’s own storage, depending on what you do here. None is shared with a third party or used for advertising.
| Item | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
visitor | After you send us certain forms, remembers your first name so our pages can greet you by it. | Until you clear your browser’s data |
np_vault_hint | After you request a resource from our download library, remembers the email address you gave, so the library can show which address it is using and fill it in for you next time. | Until you clear your browser’s data, or tell the library it is not you |
visitor_handoff | Carries your first name and a short summary of the form you have just sent to the thank-you page, so it can confirm what you asked for. | Until you close the browser tab |
ty: followed by a page address | Marks that you have just sent us a form, so its thank-you page shows. It holds only the time. | Until you close the browser tab |
np_first_touch | The first time you visit our website, it remembers the address you arrived at and when, and any campaign tags on the link you followed. If you later send us one of our forms, they may be sent with it, so we know what first brought you here, if anything. It holds no name or contact details. This one is optional: it is never kept if you decline optional cookies, and declining later removes it the next time you open one of our pages. | 90 days, then removed on your next visit |
np_last_touch | Each time you reach our website through a link carrying campaign tags, it remembers those tags, the address you arrived at, and when, replacing what it held before. If you later send us one of our forms, they may be sent with it, so we know which campaign most recently brought you. It holds no name or contact details. Like np_first_touch, it is optional: it is never kept if you decline optional cookies, and declining later removes it the next time you open one of our pages. | 90 days from the latest campaign link you followed, then removed on your next visit |
np_touch_trail | Each time you reach our website through a link carrying campaign tags, it adds those tags, the address you arrived at, and when, to a list of your last 10 such visits. If you later send us one of our forms, the list may be sent with it, so we know which campaigns brought you and in what order. It holds no name or contact details. Like np_first_touch, it is optional: it is never kept if you decline optional cookies, and declining later removes it the next time you open one of our pages. | Each visit 90 days, then removed on your next visit |
