What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners about how their site is being used.

Cookies cannot run programs or deliver viruses to your device. They are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued them.

Kerygo uses cookies and similar technologies such as local storage and web beacons. When we refer to “cookies” in this policy, we include all such similar technologies. Cookies set directly by kerygo.com are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by external services are called third-party cookies.

How We Use Cookies

Kerygo uses cookies to:

  • Ensure the Platform functions correctly and securely;
  • Protect forms from CSRF attacks using WordPress nonces (security tokens);
  • Remember your search filters and preferences between visits;
  • Understand how visitors interact with the directory — which pages, filters, and listings are most used;
  • Measure and improve Platform performance and user experience;
  • Serve optimised, cached pages faster via our hosting infrastructure.

We do not use cookies to serve advertisements, track you across unrelated third-party websites, or build personal advertising profiles.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use four categories of cookies on kerygo.com:

First-Party System Cookies

The following cookies are set directly by kerygo.com (first-party). Although the underlying software — WordPress and LiteSpeed Cache — is developed by third parties, the cookies themselves are issued by our own domain and remain under our control.

SoftwareCookie PurposeDurationCookie Domain
WordPress CoreSession management, CSRF nonce tokens for form security, admin authenticationSessionkerygo.com
LiteSpeed CacheServer-side performance caching — identifies cached vs non-cached page requests to serve pages fasterSessionkerygo.com
These are essential, first-party cookies. They are set and controlled entirely by Kerygo and do not transmit data to any external party. They are required for the Platform to function securely and do not require your consent.

Third-Party Cookies and Services

The following services are operated by external companies and may set their own cookies or collect data when you visit kerygo.com. These are subject to each provider’s own privacy policy.

Your Consent

When you first visit kerygo.com, a cookie consent banner allows you to:

  • Accept all cookies — including analytics and preference cookies;
  • Reject non-essential cookies — only essential first-party cookies will be active;
  • Manage preferences — choose exactly which categories to allow.

Analytics and preference cookies are only activated after you provide explicit consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time — as easily as you gave it — by clicking the cookie settings link in the footer of any page on kerygo.com.

GDPR & DPDP Note: If you are located in the EEA, UK, or India, non-essential cookies require your prior explicit consent before being activated. Kerygo fully respects this requirement. Your consent preferences are stored locally on your device and are not shared with any third party.

7

Managing Your Cookies

You have full control over your cookie preferences:

  • Cookie settings link: Available in the footer of every page on kerygo.com. Click it at any time to update your preferences — no account required.
  • Browser settings: Block, delete, or restrict cookies through your browser. See Section 8 for direct links per browser.
  • Google Analytics opt-out: Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent Analytics from collecting your data across all sites.
  • Clear existing cookies: Delete all cookies already stored on your device by clearing your browser history and cookies in your browser settings.

Impact of Disabling Cookies

Disabling non-essential cookies will not prevent you from browsing the directory, viewing manufacturer profiles, or submitting the contact form. However:

  • Disabling essential cookies — may cause security nonces, form protection, and session-dependent features to stop working correctly. We strongly recommend keeping these enabled.
  • Disabling preference cookies — your search filters and settings will not be remembered between visits. You may need to reapply filters each session.
  • Disabling analytics cookies — we will not be able to measure Platform performance or understand directory usage patterns. This has no impact on your access to any content.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use, technology we deploy, or applicable legal requirements. Updates will be reflected by revising the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page.

Where changes are material — for example, introducing a new cookie category or a new third-party service — we will notify registered users via email and present a fresh consent banner on your next visit to kerygo.com.
