Cookie and tracking technology policy for Alcreon.com

Operator: Alcreon Services Inc. | Calgary, Alberta, Canada | Last updated: May 13, 2026

1. Overview

This Cookie Policy explains how Alcreon Services Inc. uses cookies and similar technologies on Alcreon.com. This Policy should be read together with the Alcreon.com Privacy Policy.

Cookies are small files or identifiers placed on or read from your browser or device. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, local storage, SDKs, server logs, email measurement tools, and device identifiers.

2. Why Alcreon uses cookies

We may use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • operate the site and remember basic settings;
  • protect the site from spam, abuse, fraud, and unauthorized access;
  • understand readership, traffic, referrals, and article performance;
  • measure newsletter signups, email engagement, and conversion paths;
  • maintain account or paid subscription sessions if those features launch;
  • troubleshoot errors and improve performance; and
  • comply with legal, security, and recordkeeping obligations.

Strictly necessary cookies. Required for the site to function, maintain security, route traffic, prevent abuse, remember consent choices, or provide requested features. The site may not work correctly without them.

Analytics cookies. Help us understand how readers use the site, which pages are visited, which referral sources work, and how content performs. Analytics may include IP address, device and browser data, referral URL, pages viewed, timestamps, and event data.

Preference cookies. Remember settings such as cookie choices, display preferences, region, language, or similar site preferences if enabled.

Newsletter and measurement technologies. Newsletter platforms may use pixels, links, and event tracking to measure opens, clicks, unsubscribes, and deliverability. Some email clients block or distort these measurements.

Advertising and retargeting cookies. Alcreon.com does not enable advertising or retargeting cookies unless the business decides to run ads, retargeting, or affiliate measurement. If those tools are enabled, this Policy and the consent mechanism will be updated before launch.

4. Third-party cookies

Some cookies or similar technologies may be set by service providers, such as hosting providers, analytics providers, newsletter platforms, security tools, payment processors, or embedded content providers. Those providers may process information under their own terms and privacy policies.

Where required by applicable law (including Quebec's Law 25, the European ePrivacy Directive and member-state implementations, and the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations), we will not place non-essential cookies on your device before obtaining your consent. You may withdraw consent at any time through the cookie preference centre on the site.

You may also manage cookies through:

  • the cookie banner or preference centre on Alcreon.com;
  • your browser settings;
  • private browsing or cookie-clearing tools;
  • analytics provider opt-out tools, where available; and
  • unsubscribe or email preference links in newsletters.

Blocking or deleting cookies may affect site functionality, analytics accuracy, account sessions, paid subscription access, and newsletter measurement.

6. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Some browsers offer Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signals. Technical and legal treatment of these signals varies by jurisdiction and provider. If Alcreon.com uses advertising, sale, sharing, or retargeting tools in the future, the site will implement signal handling appropriate to those tools and applicable law.

Alcreon maintains a live cookie inventory showing cookie names, provider, purpose, category, duration, and whether the cookie is first-party or third-party. The inventory is generated from the deployed site and updated when tools change.

The current inventory is available through the cookie preference centre on Alcreon.com.

8. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy when tools, cookies, vendors, or legal requirements change. The revised Policy will be posted with a new "Last updated" date.
