Cookie policy
Last updated 8 November 2026 · Draft for launch. Highlighted items are placeholders to be filled before the site goes live.
In short. This site sets no advertising or analytics cookies and does not track you across other sites. It uses one small browser setting to remember whether you chose "I'm hiring" or "I'm thinking of moving", and our hosting and booking providers may set strictly necessary security cookies.
1. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. "Local storage" is a similar browser feature that holds a setting on your device without sending it anywhere. The Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) require your consent for anything stored on your device unless it is strictly necessary for a service you asked for.
2. What this site uses
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
as-mode (local storage) | aaronsonsearch.com | Remembers whether you chose the hiring or moving view so the page opens the same way next time. Stays on your device; never sent to us. | Functional, strictly necessary for the view you asked for | Until you clear your browser data |
__cf_bm, cf_clearance (confirm at launch) | Cloudflare | Distinguishes people from automated traffic and protects the site from attack. | Strictly necessary, security | Up to 30 minutes / up to 1 year |
| Microsoft Bookings cookies (when the booking calendar goes live) | Microsoft | Needed for the booking calendar to work when you choose to open it. Set only on that page. | Strictly necessary for the booking you asked for | Session |
We do not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, Hotjar or any other analytics or advertising technology. Our web fonts are hosted on our own site, so your browser does not contact Google or any other font service.
3. Managing cookies
Because nothing here needs consent, there is no cookie banner. You can clear or block storage in your browser settings; the site will still work, but it will forget your hiring or moving choice. Guidance for common browsers: aboutcookies.org.uk.
4. Changes
If we ever add anything that needs consent, we will ask for it first and update this page. See also our privacy notice.
