Cookie Policy.
This Cookie Policy explains how LEVERAGE LTD ("LEVERAGE CYBER", "us", "we", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website.
Last Updated: 29 June 2026
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help us understand how visitors interact with our site and improve your experience.
Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to:
- Ensure our website functions properly and securely
- Remember your cookie consent preferences
- Understand how visitors interact with our site so we can improve it
- Power our contact form (HubSpot) when you choose to use it
- Protect our website from automated abuse (Cloudflare)
- Monitor for errors and performance issues (Sentry)
We do not use cookies for advertising or to track you across other websites. Google Analytics operates in advanced consent mode — before you accept analytics cookies, Google sends cookieless pings that contain no persistent identifiers. No GA cookies are set until you explicitly consent.
Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function. They include your cookie consent preferences. Without them, the consent banner cannot remember your choice. These cookies do not store personally identifiable information.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies help us understand how people use our site. They collect information anonymously — such as which pages are visited most often and how far users scroll — so we can identify improvements. Microsoft Clarity also records session replays and heatmaps. Google Analytics uses Google Consent Mode v2: before you consent, it sends cookieless pings with no persistent identifiers. No analytics cookies are set until you explicitly accept them via the cookie banner.
Functional Cookies (HubSpot)
Our contact form is powered by HubSpot. HubSpot sets cookies to enable form submission and remember your details. These cookies are only set when you have accepted analytics cookies and actively use the contact form.
Security Cookies (Cloudflare)
Cloudflare sets a cookie to distinguish human visitors from automated bots. This helps protect our website from abuse and is set based on our legitimate interest in site security.

Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by external services we use — specifically Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, HubSpot, Cloudflare, and Sentry. These services have their own privacy policies, which we recommend reviewing independently.
- Google Analytics: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Microsoft Clarity: https://privacy.microsoft.com/privacystatement

Managing Your Cookie Preferences
When you first visit our site, you can accept or decline analytics cookies. Google Analytics uses Consent Mode v2 in advanced mode — before you consent, it sends cookieless pings (no cookies, no persistent identifiers) so that basic page-view counts are still recorded without identifying you. When you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics transitions to full cookie-based measurement. HubSpot functional cookies are only set when you interact with the contact form. Cloudflare security cookies are set automatically for all visitors. You can change your analytics preferences at any time using the cookie settings link in the footer. You can also manage cookies directly in your browser:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Site Permissions > Cookies and site data
Disabling analytics cookies will not affect how the website functions. Only the strictly necessary cookie (your consent preference) is required for the site to behave correctly on repeat visits.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our website evolves or regulations change. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date at the top.
