Cookie Policy
Last updated:
This page explains which cookies and similar technologies Enlighten SME uses, why they are used, and how you can control them. It should be read with our Privacy Policy and Advertising Disclosure.
What a Cookie Is
A cookie is a small text file that a website or a service embedded in it stores on your device. Cookies let a site remember something between visits or measure how it is used. They cannot read other files on your device, and they do not themselves contain your name, address or payment details.
Cookies and Similar Technologies on This Site
Enlighten SME does not have user accounts, a login or an online shop, so we do not use cookies to run any of those. The cookies you may encounter come from two services that are installed on the site.
Analytics
The site uses Google Analytics to understand, in aggregate, which guides are read, roughly where in the world visitors are and what kind of device they use. This helps us decide which topics need improving or adding. Google Analytics uses cookies or similar identifiers to do this. The information is used for statistics rather than to identify you personally.
Advertising
The site displays advertising from Google AdSense. Google and its advertising partners may set or read cookies to show adverts, to limit how often you see the same advert, to measure performance and, where permitted, to personalise adverts based on your visits to this and other websites. These cookies belong to Google, not to Enlighten SME, and we cannot read them. You can learn more at policies.google.com/technologies/ads.
Cookies We Do Not Use
- Cookies that store your name, address or any payment information
- Cookies that log you into an account, because the site has none
- Cookies set by us to build a profile of you for our own marketing
Managing Cookies
You can view, block or delete cookies in your browser settings, either for every site or for this one only. Instructions for the most common browsers:
Blocking cookies will not stop you reading the guides. To limit personalised advertising, visit google.co.uk/settings/ads. If you would rather not be counted by Google Analytics on any site that uses it, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Changes to This Policy
We will update this page if the services we use change, for example if we add another analytics or advertising provider. The version published at this address is always the current one. Last reviewed: October 2026.
