This Cookie Policy explains how ImmigrationExpertReports.com ("we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy. We comply with the UK GDPR, the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), and apply CCPA-aligned transparency for California visitors.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We also use local storage to remember your cookie consent choices (with a 12-month expiry) and load third-party tags only after you grant consent.
Google Consent Mode
Before you make a choice, we set Google Consent Mode v2 defaults that deny analytics, advertising, and personalization storage. When you accept or customise preferences, we update consent signals immediately so Google tags respect your choices.

Third-party services
Depending on your consent choices, we may load:

These providers may process data outside the UK. We do not load non-essential scripts until you opt in via our cookie banner.
Your choices
On your first visit you can Accept All, Reject Non-Essential, or Customize Preferences. Change your mind anytime using Cookie Settings in the website footer. Consent is stored in your browser for up to 12 months, after which we will ask again.
