  1. Who We Are

Ethisys Ltd is a digital agency specialising in intelligent automation and AI-driven digital transformation. We are registered in England and Wales (Company No. 11371203), with our registered office at 1 Queen Square, Bath, BA1 2HA, United Kingdom. 

This website, www.ethisys.co.uk, is operated by Ethisys Ltd. We act as the data controller for personal data collected via cookies on this site. 

  1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to give website owners information about how their site is being used. 

Cookies can be first-party (set by us) or third-party (set by a service we use, such as Google). They can be session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (which remain for a set period or until you delete them). 

  1. Legal Basis

Under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR, we are required to obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. Essential cookies — those strictly necessary for the website to function — may be placed without consent. 

Where we rely on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time using the cookie consent banner on our website, or by clearing cookies in your browser settings.

  1. Analytics Cookies in Detail

5.1 Google Analytics (GA4) 

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors interact with our website — for example, which pages are most visited, how long visitors stay, and how they navigate between pages. Google Analytics collects information without personally identifying individual visitors. Google acts as a data processor for this service. 

5.2 Segment 

We use Segment, a customer data platform, to consolidate analytics data. Segment assigns an anonymous identifier (ajs_anonymous_id) to track user journeys across sessions. No personally identifiable information is collected without your explicit consent. See Segment’s Privacy Policy at twilio.com/en-us/legal/privacy. 

  1. Your Cookie Choices

6.1 Cookie Consent Banner 

When you first visit our website, a cookie consent banner appears at the bottom of the page. You can: 

  • Accept All — allows all cookies including analytics (Google Analytics and Segment). 
  • Reject Non-Essential — blocks analytics cookies; only the essential cookie_consent cookie is placed. 

Your choice is saved in the cookie_consent cookie for 12 months. To change your preference, clear your browser cookies and revisit the site, or contact privacy@ethisys.co.uk. 

6.2 Browser Settings 

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to: 

  • View stored cookies and delete them individually or all at once 
  • Block third-party cookies 
  • Block all cookies (note: this may affect how some websites function) 
  • Receive notifications before a cookie is placed 

To opt out of Google Analytics across all websites, install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
