Cookie Policy

Last updated: 29 October 2026

This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies Indirect Media uses on indirectmedia.co.za. Read it with our Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser so it can remember things between pages and visits. Similar technologies, such as pixels and your browser’s local storage, work in much the same way. We call them all “cookies” here.

2. The cookies we use

Essential, always on. These keep the site and our forms working:

  • im_consent (local storage, 12 months): remembers your cookie choice.
  • WordPress sign-in cookies, used only by our own team.

Analytics, only with your consent. Google Analytics, provided by Google, counts visits and shows us which pages are useful and how people find us.

  • _ga and _ga_QK4PYVLJY7 (up to 2 years).

Advertising, only with your consent. The Meta Pixel, provided by Meta, tells us whether our Facebook and Instagram ads lead to visits and enquiries. Meta may also use this information to show you ads, under Meta’s own privacy policy.

  • _fbp and _fbc (90 days), plus cookies on Meta’s own websites.

Videos. When you press play on one of our films, the video loads from Vimeo, which may set its own cookies under Vimeo’s privacy policy.

3. Your choices

  • Cookie banner: on your first visit you can accept all, reject all or choose. Rejecting is as easy as accepting, and the website works the same either way.
  • Change your mind: click Cookie settings at the bottom of any page. If you switch a group off, we delete its cookies on our site and stop it from loading.
  • Global Privacy Control: if your browser sends this signal, we keep advertising cookies off.
  • Do Not Track: there is no common standard for this browser setting, so our site does not respond to it.
  • Your browser: you can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may stop our forms from working.

We ask for your choice again after 12 months, or sooner if we add a new kind of cookie.
