ORBA Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Orba Technologies Ltd (“ORBA”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit the ORBA website, use the ORBA platform or interact with our online services.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains more broadly how we collect, use and protect personal information.
ORBA’s services may develop over time. As new features, integrations and technologies are introduced, the cookies and similar technologies we use may also change. We will update this Cookie Policy where appropriate.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites and online services place on your device when you visit or use them.
Cookies can perform a variety of functions, such as keeping a user signed in, remembering preferences, maintaining security, understanding how a website is being used and measuring the effectiveness of online communications or marketing.
Some cookies are placed directly by ORBA or the technology used to operate our Services. Others may be placed by third-party services integrated into ORBA.
2. Similar technologies
In addition to traditional cookies, ORBA may use similar technologies such as local storage, session storage, pixels, tags, SDKs or other identifiers where necessary to provide, secure, analyse or improve our Services.
References to “cookies” in this policy include these similar technologies where appropriate.
3. Types of cookies ORBA uses
Depending on the features and services available at the time you visit ORBA, we may use the following categories of cookies.
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website or platform to function correctly and cannot generally be disabled through our cookie preference controls.
They may be used for purposes including:
* operating and delivering the website and platform;
* maintaining secure user sessions;
* account authentication and login;
* remembering privacy and cookie choices;
* preventing fraud and abuse;
* maintaining website and platform security;
* load balancing and technical functionality;
* enabling subscription, checkout or payment functionality; and
* providing functionality specifically requested by the user.
Where these cookies are strictly necessary to provide a service requested by you, consent may not be required under applicable cookie rules.
Functional cookies
Functional cookies allow ORBA to remember choices or preferences and provide enhanced functionality.
For example, where enabled, these cookies may remember:
* interface or display preferences;
* account preferences;
* previously selected settings;
* user experience choices; or
* other optional customisation.
Where consent is legally required for these cookies, they will not be activated until the appropriate consent has been obtained.
Analytics and performance cookies
ORBA may use analytics technologies to understand how visitors and customers interact with our website and platform.
This may include information about:
* pages visited;
* features used;
* navigation through the website or platform;
* session duration;
* approximate traffic sources;
* device and browser information;
* errors and technical performance;
* interactions with buttons or forms; and
* general usage patterns.
We may use services such as Google Analytics, where enabled, to help us understand website usage and improve ORBA.
Analytics information helps us understand which parts of ORBA are useful, identify technical problems and improve the performance and usability of our Services.
Where required by applicable law, analytics cookies will only be placed after you have provided consent.
4. Advertising and marketing cookies
ORBA may in the future use advertising or marketing technologies to measure campaigns, understand how visitors arrive at ORBA, measure conversions or provide more relevant advertising.
These technologies could, where implemented, be provided by advertising, social-media or marketing platforms.
ORBA does not necessarily use all such technologies at present. If advertising or marketing cookies are introduced, this Cookie Policy and our cookie consent mechanism will be updated as appropriate.
Where consent is required, non-essential advertising or marketing cookies will not be placed before consent has been obtained.
Users will be able to refuse or withdraw consent to such cookies.
5. ORBA platform and account cookies
As the ORBA platform develops, cookies may be required to support registered user accounts and subscription functionality.
These may be used to:
* authenticate users;
* keep users securely logged in;
* maintain sessions;
* identify subscription or account status;
* protect accounts against unauthorised access;
* remember platform preferences;
* provide account functionality; and
* maintain the security and reliability of the platform.
Some of these cookies may be strictly necessary for the ORBA platform to provide functionality requested by the user.
6. Payments and subscriptions
Where ORBA offers paid subscriptions, payment functionality may be provided using third-party payment processors such as Stripe.
Payment providers may use cookies or similar technologies for purposes including processing transactions, fraud prevention, authentication and security.
Where a third-party payment provider processes information independently, its own privacy and cookie terms may also apply.
ORBA does not use payment cookies to obtain your full payment-card details where those details are handled directly by the payment provider.
7. Website and platform providers
ORBA’s website and platform may rely on third-party technology providers.
For example, our public-facing website may use technology supplied by Wix, while our application/platform may use other hosting, infrastructure or development technologies.
These providers may use cookies or similar technologies where necessary to deliver their services, maintain security or provide functionality.
The exact technologies used may change as ORBA develops.
8. Third-party integrations
ORBA may integrate with third-party services in the future.
Depending on the functionality introduced, these could include analytics services, payment services, authentication providers, communications tools, customer-support systems, social-media functionality or other business technologies.
A third party may place or access cookies when its functionality is used.
Where required, ORBA will obtain appropriate consent before allowing non-essential third-party cookies to operate.
9. Google and other sign-in services
If ORBA offers functionality such as Sign in with Google or another third-party authentication service, that provider may use cookies or similar technologies to authenticate the user, maintain security and provide the requested sign-in functionality.
The third party’s own privacy and cookie policies may also apply to its processing.
10. Session and persistent cookies
ORBA may use both session and persistent cookies.
Session cookies generally remain only for the duration of your browser session and are removed after the browser is closed.
Persistent cookies remain on a device for a defined period or until deleted.
The duration of individual cookies depends on their purpose and the technology or provider responsible for them.
11. First-party and third-party cookies
First-party cookies are associated with ORBA’s website or platform.
Third-party cookies may be provided by external services integrated into ORBA, such as analytics, payment, authentication or other technology providers.
The cookies available on ORBA may change as our Services and integrations develop.
12. Your cookie choices
When you visit ORBA, you may be presented with a cookie consent banner or preference centre where required.
You should be able to:
* accept applicable non-essential cookies;
* reject applicable non-essential cookies; and
* manage available cookie preferences.
ORBA will not treat continued browsing alone as consent where affirmative consent is legally required.
Your consent choices may themselves be stored using a strictly necessary cookie so that ORBA can remember your preference.
13. Withdrawing or changing consent
Where processing relies on your consent, you may withdraw or change that consent at any time.
Where available, you can do this through the Cookie Settings or cookie preference functionality on the ORBA website.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.
14. Browser controls
Most web browsers also allow users to view, block or delete cookies through browser settings.
Blocking all cookies may prevent some ORBA functionality from operating correctly, particularly functionality involving accounts, authentication, security or subscriptions.
Browser controls operate separately from ORBA’s own cookie preference mechanism.
15. Personal information and cookies
Some information collected through cookies or similar technologies may constitute personal data.
Where cookie-related information constitutes personal data, it will be processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data-protection law, including the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018 where applicable.
Our use of cookies and similar technologies is also subject to applicable UK electronic communications and privacy requirements, including PECR.
16. International data processing
Some third-party technology providers used by ORBA may process information outside the United Kingdom.
Where personal data is transferred internationally, ORBA will take appropriate measures where required by applicable data-protection law.
More information about international transfers is provided in our Privacy Policy.
17. How long cookies are stored
The duration for which a cookie remains on your device varies according to its purpose and provider.
Some cookies expire when your browsing session ends, while others may remain for longer.
Where appropriate, ORBA’s cookie consent tool may provide further information about individual cookies, their providers, purposes and duration.
18. Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when ORBA introduces new features, changes technology providers, implements new integrations, changes its use of cookies or where legal or regulatory requirements change.
The latest version will be published on the ORBA website and the Last updated date will be amended accordingly.
Where required, we may request consent again following material changes to our use of cookies.
