Cookie Policy
Last updated 25 Oct 2026
What this policy covers
This Cookie Policy explains how SearchAheadSEO ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on https://www.searchaheadseo.com (the "Site"). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They help the website work properly, remember your preferences, and understand how people use it.
Some cookies are set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies"). Others are set by outside services the website uses, such as analytics tools ("third-party cookies").
Similar technologies, such as local storage and tracking scripts, work in a similar way. In this policy, we call all of them "cookies".
The types of cookies we use
We keep our use of cookies to a minimum. We do not currently use advertising or remarketing cookies, and we do not sell any data collected through cookies. If we add advertising or remarketing tags in future, we will give notice and update this policy first.
Essential cookies
These cookies are needed for the Site to work and stay secure. For example, they may help:
- Load pages correctly and quickly through our hosting provider, Vercel
- Protect the Site and our enquiry forms from spam and abuse
- Remember your cookie choices, if we ask for them
Essential cookies do not track you across other websites. Because the Site cannot work properly without them, they cannot be switched off through our Site.
Analytics cookies
Once configured, we may use Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to understand how visitors use the Site. These cookies help us see things like:
- How many people visit the Site
- Which pages are most popular
- How visitors found the Site (for example, through a search engine)
- The type of device and browser used
- Your approximate location (such as city or country)
This information is collected in an aggregated form and helps us improve the Site. We do not use it to identify you personally. Google may process this data on servers outside India under its own privacy terms.
Common Google Analytics cookies have names starting with _ga. They usually last from a few hours up to two years.
Third-party links
The Site links to WhatsApp, LinkedIn and Instagram. We do not place their cookies through these links. However, if you click through to those platforms, they may set their own cookies under their own policies, which we do not control.
How to control cookies
You are in control of cookies. Here are the main ways to manage them:
- Our cookie settings: where we show a cookie notice or banner, you can choose whether to allow analytics cookies, and change your choice later.
- Browser settings: most browsers let you view, block or delete cookies. Look in the "Privacy" or "Settings" menu of Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge or your mobile browser.
- Google Analytics opt-out: Google offers a browser add-on that stops Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits. You can find it at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
- Private browsing: using a private or incognito window usually deletes cookies when you close it.
If you block all cookies, some parts of the Site may not work as expected. Blocking only analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use the Site or send us an enquiry.
Your rights
Where cookies collect personal data, you have the rights described in our Privacy Policy, including rights under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 where it applies. You can withdraw consent to analytics cookies at any time.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy if we change the tools we use or if the law changes. The "updated" date at the top of this page shows the latest version.
