What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits, remember your preferences, and collect information about how you use the site.
In addition to cookies, we and our third-party partners may use related technologies such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage (including localStorage and sessionStorage) to achieve similar purposes. References to "cookies" in this policy include these related technologies unless otherwise specified.
This policy applies to the Fluensys website at fluensys.es and the Fluensys diagnostic tool hosted at diagnostic.fluensys.es. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data more broadly.
How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
Strictly Necessary
These cookies are essential for our website and diagnostic tool to function. They enable core features such as security, session integrity, and access to authenticated areas. They cannot be disabled without breaking the service. No consent is required for these cookies under applicable law.
Functional
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you have made — such as your progress through the diagnostic tool — and provide enhanced, personalised features. They do not track your activity across other websites.
Analytics
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website. The data collected is aggregated and anonymised. We use this information solely to improve website performance and content. These cookies are only set with your consent.
We do not use advertising or targeting cookies. We do not share cookie data with advertising networks or use cookies to build individual profiles for marketing purposes.

Fluensys (localStorage) | Stores the student's progress state through the diagnostic tool locally on their device. This data does not leave the device unless the student submits their results. | Functional | Session / until cleared |
localStorage to temporarily store your progress through the assessment. This data is held only on your device and is not transmitted to any third party. It is cleared when you complete the assessment or clear your browser data. This is not a cookie in the traditional sense but is disclosed here in the interest of full transparency.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on or are embedded within our website. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, which govern how they use data collected through their cookies. We do not control third-party cookies.
Stripe (Payment Processing)
When you access the payment link to purchase the Fluensys Proficiency Profile, you are directed to Stripe's hosted payment page. Stripe sets cookies on their domain to protect against fraud and to ensure payment session integrity. These cookies are governed by Stripe's Privacy Policy. Relevant cookies include __stripe_mid and __stripe_sid.
Cal.com (Appointment Booking)
The Roadmap Call booking link at cal.eu/fluensys/roadmap-call is hosted by Cal.com. When you visit the booking page, Cal.com may set session cookies to manage your booking flow. These are governed by Cal.com's Privacy Policy.
Google Fonts
Our website uses Google Fonts to deliver typefaces. Google Fonts loads font files from Google's servers. While Google Fonts does not set cookies, your browser does make a request to Google's servers which may log your IP address. This is governed by Google's Privacy Policy. We use Google Fonts solely for typographic rendering and do not pass any personal data to Google.
Cookies and the Diagnostic Tool
The Fluensys Skills Check and Proficiency Profile are delivered via a web application hosted separately from the main website. This tool is accessed at a dedicated URL and does not share a cookie domain with fluensys.es.
Within the diagnostic tool, we use browser localStorage to maintain your session state as you progress through the assessment sections. This ensures that if you navigate between sections, your previous responses are not lost. This data remains on your device until you either complete and submit the assessment or clear your browser storage.
On submission, your assessment data is transmitted securely to our database. From that point, data handling is governed by our Privacy Policy. The local storage entry is not retained beyond the active session.
The diagnostic tool does not set any analytics cookies. No third-party tracking scripts are loaded within the diagnostic environment.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit fluensys.es, a cookie consent banner will ask for your permission before any non-essential cookies are set. You can accept all cookies, accept essential cookies only, or customise your preferences by category. You can update your choices at any time via the cookie settings link in the footer of our website.
Browser Settings
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will affect the functionality of our website. Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers are available at the links below:
Withdrawing Consent
You may withdraw consent for non-essential cookies at any time by updating your preferences through our cookie settings. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of any cookie use that occurred before you withdrew it. Strictly necessary cookies will continue to be set regardless of your consent choice, as they are required for the website to function.
Changes to This Policy
We review and update this Cookie Policy when new cookies are introduced, third-party services change, or applicable law requires it. When we make material changes, we will update the version number and effective date at the top of this document and, where appropriate, notify active users by email or via a notice on the website.
The cookie inventory in Section 3 is maintained as a live record. Minor additions or removals of individual cookies may be reflected in the inventory without incrementing the policy version, provided the overall categories and purposes do not change.
Previous versions of this policy are available on request.
