This Cookies Policy explains how Smythe Geanga Ltd ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at aperio-fm.com and use the Aperio FM platform (the "Service"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
The short version
- Only strictly necessary cookies: keeping you signed in, protecting forms, and honouring "Remember me".
- No analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking cookies.
- Your theme and cookie-banner choices are stored in your browser, not in cookies.
- You can view and delete cookies any time in your browser settings.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, improve efficiency, and provide reporting information. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by the site you are visiting) or "third-party" (set by a different domain).
2. How we use cookies

Performance and analytics cookies
We do not currently use any performance or analytics cookies. This section will be updated if we introduce analytics tooling in the future.
Functionality cookies
We do not currently use functionality cookies. Your theme preference (dark/light mode) and your cookie-banner choice are stored in your browser's local storage, not in cookies.
3. Third-party cookies
We do not currently use third-party advertising or tracking cookies. In the future, if we integrate third-party services (such as analytics providers), we will update this policy and provide you with the ability to opt out where required.
4. Managing cookies
You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View what cookies are set and delete them individually.
- Block all cookies or block cookies from specific sites.
- Clear all cookies when you close your browser.
Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent the Service from functioning correctly. You may be unable to log in or use core features.
