Cookie Policy

Draft template — not legal advice. Counsel review required before launch. This describes current behavior and how cookies would be handled if analytics or advertising are enabled in the future.

Current state

Today GovAwardData.com is a static site with no advertising cookies and no analytics cookies. No third-party tracking or advertising scripts are loaded. Any cookies are limited to those strictly necessary for the site or hosting to function.

Categories of cookies

• Essential cookies. Required for the site or hosting provider to operate (for example, security and load balancing). These are always active.
• Analytics cookies (not currently enabled). If site analytics (e.g. Google Analytics 4) are enabled later, they would set cookies to measure aggregate, non-personal usage. They would be subject to consent where required.
• Advertising cookies (not currently enabled). If display advertising (e.g. Google AdSense or a managed ad partner) is enabled later, ad vendors may set cookies for ad delivery, frequency capping, and measurement, including personalized advertising where permitted. These would be subject to consent where required.

Consent

Before enabling advertising or analytics in regions that require consent (such as the EEA, UK, and Switzerland), a consent mechanism will be added so that non-essential cookies are not set until the user agrees. By default, analytics and advertising storage are treated as denied until consent is given.

Controlling cookies

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect how the site works. When advertising is enabled, additional opt-out and ad-choices information will be provided here and on the advertising policy page.

Updates

This policy will be updated before any advertising or analytics is enabled, with specific vendor names and cookie details. See also our privacy policy.
