Cookie Policy
Last Updated: October 13, 2026
1. Who we are and what this policy covers
This website, https://www.footholdamerica.com/ (the “Site”), is operated by Foothold America Limited (“we”, “us”, “our”). This policy explains what cookies and similar technologies are, which ones we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.
When we say “cookies”, we also mean similar technologies that store or read information on your device, such as pixels, tags and local storage. This includes pixels in the emails we send you (see Email tracking).
We do not sell the data we collect through cookies to third parties.
2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, phone or tablet when you visit a website. They are sent back to the website that set them each time you return, which lets the site recognise your device, remember your preferences and understand how the site is being used.
Cookies can be described in two ways: by what they do (their purpose) and by how long they last (their duration). The sections below cover both.
3. Cookies by purpose
Category | What it does | Consent needed? |
|---|---|---|
Strictly necessary | Essential for the Site to work, for example loading pages, keeping the Site secure and remembering your cookie choices. The Site cannot function properly without them. | No |
Functionality | Remember choices you make (such as language or region) so we can personalise your experience. | Yes |
Analytics and performance | Help us understand how visitors find and use the Site, for example the number of visitors, which pages are most popular and how people move between pages. We use this to fix problems and improve the Site. | Yes |
Marketing | Used to deliver and measure relevant advertising and to limit how often you see an ad. | Yes |
Where a cookie has more than one use, we will only use it for the purposes described in this policy, unless we have a lawful basis to use it for something else and have told you.
4. Cookies by duration and origin
- Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies stay on your device for a set period, or until you delete them, and are activated each time you visit the Site.
- First-party cookies are set directly by our Site.
- Third-party cookies are set by other organisations whose services we use, such as analytics providers.
5. Cookies we use
We use cookies set by our own Site (first party) and by trusted third-party services. Our Site uses Google Tag Manager to load some of its analytics and marketing tools.
Source | What it is used for | Category |
|---|---|---|
Foothold America (first party) | Making the Site work, keeping it secure and remembering your choices | Strictly necessary, Functionality |
Google Tag Manager | Managing the analytics and marketing tags on the Site | Analytics, Marketing |
Analytics and advertising services loaded through the Site | Measuring how the Site is used and how our marketing performs | Analytics, Marketing |
The exact cookies on your device can change as we update the Site. You can see which cookies are set on your own device in your browser settings (see section 6).
We may add, change or remove cookies from time to time. We will update this policy when the changes are significant.
6. Your choices and how to manage cookies
On our Site. Where we ask for your consent to non-essential cookies, you can accept or reject them, and you can change your mind at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of anything we did before you withdrew it. To withdraw consent or ask a question, email the contact in section 11.
In your browser. Most browsers let you view, block or delete cookies. Your browser choices override settings on individual sites. Guidance for common browsers:
For other browsers, visit the developer’s website. You can also learn more at aboutcookies.org and allaboutcookies.org.
If you block or delete cookies, some parts of the Site may not work properly. Blocking cookies, or using an ad blocker, may also stop you seeing advertising tailored to you.
Shared devices. If more than one person uses your device, cookie choices made by others will apply to you unless you change them. For example, on a shared family computer you may see ads based on sites other people have visited.
7. Third-party links
This policy does not cover other websites that our Site links to. Please read the privacy and cookie notices of any site you visit.
8. Email tracking
We sometimes track the emails we send so we can improve our communications. We use small images called pixels to tell us whether an email was opened, how many times, and on what type of device. We may also set a cookie to see whether you clicked links in the email. The pixel itself leaves nothing on your device.
How to stop email tracking:
- Block or disable image loading in your email program.
- Avoid clicking links in our emails.
- Adjust your browser or email program settings to restrict or block cookies from our emails.
- Unsubscribe from our emails using the link in any message.
9. How we use and protect your data
Data collected through cookies is held by us and used only for the purposes in this policy. We keep it only as long as needed for those purposes. For details on how we process personal data, how long we keep it, and your rights (such as access, correction, erasure and objection), please see the Privacy Policy on our Site.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time, for example when we change the cookies we use or when the law changes. The “Last updated” date at the top shows when it was last revised. Where changes are significant, we will let you know, for instance through a notice on the Site. We encourage you to check this page periodically.
