Cookie Policy

Last updated: 08 August 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how TimeProf (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar storage or access technologies on the TimeProf website and browser-based portals (collectively, the “Web Service”).

The native TimeProf iOS and Android apps do not generally rely on browser cookies in the same way as our website. Information collected through the mobile apps, including analytics, diagnostics, push-notification identifiers and location data, is explained in our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies may include local storage, session storage, tags, pixels and other technologies that store or access information on a device.

These technologies can be used to keep a user signed in, protect the Service, remember preferences, understand how the Service is used and improve reliability.

2. Categories of Technologies We Use

2.1 Strictly Necessary

These technologies are required for the Web Service to operate securely and provide functionality requested by the user. They may be used for:

• Authentication and secure login.
• Maintaining an authenticated session while navigating between pages.
• Security, fraud prevention and protection against malicious requests.
• Anti-forgery / cross-site request forgery protection.
• Load balancing, availability and technical operation of the Service.
• Remembering your cookie/privacy choices.

Where a technology is strictly necessary to provide the service you requested, consent is not normally required for that technology.

2.2 Preference and Functionality Technologies

We may use preference technologies to remember choices that you make, such as interface or display settings. Depending on the purpose and duration, some preference technologies may be necessary to provide a setting you specifically requested, while others may require your consent.

2.3 Analytics and Performance

We use analytics to help understand how the TimeProf website is used, identify problems, measure engagement and improve the Service.

TimeProf uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) on parts of the public website. GA4 may use first-party cookies such as:

Analytics technologies that require consent will not be intentionally activated until the required choice has been made. Where we rely on a lawful exception for statistical or service-improvement technologies, we will use them only within the scope permitted by applicable law and will provide the required information and controls.

2.4 Third-Party and Embedded Content

Some pages may contain content or services supplied by third parties, for example videos, maps, analytics or support tools. A third party may use its own cookies or similar technologies when its service is loaded.

Where a third-party technology is not strictly necessary, we will seek the appropriate consent before intentionally loading it where required by law. The third party's own privacy and cookie notices may also apply.

3. First-Party Security and Session Cookies

The exact technical names of security, session, authentication and anti-forgery cookies can vary depending on the TimeProf environment and security configuration. These cookies are used only for purposes such as secure authentication, session management, request validation and service operation.

Session cookies normally expire when the browser session ends, while authentication or preference cookies may remain for the configured period needed to provide the requested login or preference functionality.

4. Consent and Your Choices

Where consent is required, TimeProf will ask you to make an active choice before non-essential technologies are intentionally enabled. You should be able to:

• Accept optional technologies.
• Reject optional technologies.
• Manage choices by purpose where appropriate.
• Change or withdraw your choice later with comparable ease.

If you do not make a choice, we will not treat silence, inactivity or continued browsing as consent to non-essential technologies that require consent.

Rejecting optional cookies should not prevent access to the core TimeProf website. However, disabling technologies that are strictly necessary for secure portal authentication or requested functionality may prevent those features from working.

5. Browser Controls

Most browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies through browser settings. You may also be able to limit third-party storage or clear site data.

Browser settings are an additional control, but they are not a substitute for the consent choices that TimeProf must provide where consent is legally required.

6. Changing Your Cookie Preferences

Where optional cookie preferences are available, you can revisit those preferences using the cookie-settings control provided on the TimeProf website.

If we introduce a new non-essential technology or materially change the purpose for which an existing technology is used, we may ask you to make a fresh choice.

7. Do Not Track and Browser Privacy Signals

Browsers and devices may provide privacy or tracking-prevention settings. We respect the choices available through our own consent mechanism and will continue to review recognised browser and device privacy signals as technical and legal standards evolve.

8. Personal Data and Cookies

Some cookies and similar technologies may involve the processing of personal data, such as online identifiers, IP-derived information or usage information. For further information about how TimeProf processes personal data, our service providers, international transfers, retention and your rights, please see our Privacy Policy.

9. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when our technologies, providers, legal obligations or privacy practices change. When we make changes, we will update the “Last updated” date shown at the top of this page.
