In plain language: We use essential cookies to make the site work, analytics cookies to understand usage, and preference cookies to remember your settings. We do not use advertising cookies. You can control non-essential cookies through our cookie settings.

What Are Cookies

A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Sites use cookies to make core features work, to remember your preferences, and to give the site operator information about how visitors use the site.

Cookies can be “first-party” (set by the website you are visiting) or “third-party” (set by a service used by the website, such as an analytics platform). They can be “session” cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (stored until they expire or until you delete them).

This policy covers cookies and similar technologies (such as localStorage) used on cmbeyer.com.au. For how we handle personal information beyond cookies, see our Privacy Policy.

Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. You cannot turn them off. Without them, features like page navigation, form submission, and login would not work.

Essential Cookies in Use
wordpress_sec_*Handles WordPress authentication. First-party session cookie.
wordpress_logged_in_*Records WordPress login state. First-party session cookie.
wp_langStores your language preference. First-party session cookie.
_wp_nonceCarries the form security token. First-party session cookie.
PHPSESSIDIdentifies your server session. First-party session cookie.
Legal basis: Essential cookies are necessary for the operation of services explicitly requested by the user. They are not used for tracking and do not require consent under the Privacy Act 1988 or the Spam Act 2003.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website. We only see aggregated, anonymous data — we cannot identify individual visitors from analytics data.

Analytics Services
IONOS Web AnalyticsServer-side analytics provided by our hosting provider. Tracks page views, referral sources, device types, and geographic regions. Data processed within EU data centres.

We keep analytics data for 26 months and then delete it automatically. You can opt out of analytics cookies through our cookie settings.

Legal basis: Consent obtained through the cookie banner. Analytics cookies are only set after you accept them.

Preference Cookies

These cookies remember your settings so you do not have to re-enter them on each visit.

Preference Storage in Use
cmb_au_cookiesYour cookie preferences for cmbeyer.com.au (which categories you accepted or rejected). localStorage. Persistent until cleared.
We use localStorage rather than cookies for preference storage. Your browser keeps that data on your device and does not send it to our servers. The localStorage key is region-specific, so consenting on cmbeyer.com.au does not affect cmbeyer.co.uk or cmbeyer.com.

Marketing Cookies

We do not currently use marketing or advertising cookies. We do not run third-party advertising on this website, and we do not use tracking pixels from advertising networks.

Our cookie consent banner includes a marketing cookies toggle for transparency and future-proofing. If we introduce marketing cookies in the future, we will only set them with your explicit consent, and we will update this policy accordingly.

Our website uses the following third-party services. Each may set their own cookies or collect data according to their own privacy policies:

Managing Your Cookies

You can manage your cookie preferences in three ways:

  • Our cookie banner — click the cookie icon in the bottom-left corner of any page to open your preferences and toggle individual cookie categories on or off
  • Browser settings — most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies may prevent the website from functioning correctly
  • Clear localStorage — your browser stores your cookie preferences in localStorage. Clearing your browser's site data will reset your preferences, and the cookie banner will appear again on your next visit

For browser-specific instructions visit Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this cookie policy as our website evolves or as the law changes. The date at the top of this page reflects the current version. Where changes are significant — for example, if we introduce a new category of cookie — we will reset the cookie consent banner so you can make a fresh choice.
