Cookie Policy

Last updated: October 21, 2026

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Fleet 22 ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on Sky Index (the "Service"). It is provided to comply with the EU ePrivacy Directive, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), and other applicable privacy laws.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect and handle your personal information more broadly. Where this Cookie Policy refers to "cookies," this includes similar technologies such as web beacons, pixel tags, local storage, and session storage.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by the websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to site owners. Cookies allow a website to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you do not have to re-enter them every time you visit.

Cookies can be classified by their duration:

  • Session cookies: Temporary and deleted from your device when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies: Remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.

And by their source:

  • First-party cookies: Set by the website you are visiting.
  • Third-party cookies: Set by a domain other than the one you are visiting, often for analytics or advertising.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We group the cookies and tracking technologies on Sky Index into three categories:

3.1 Essential Cookies

These are strictly necessary for the Service to function and cannot be switched off. They enable core features such as authentication, session management, security, and load balancing. Essential cookies do not require consent and are always active.

  • Authentication & session: Keep you logged in and maintain your secure session.
  • Security: Help protect against fraud, abuse, and unauthorised access, including failed-login tracking.

3.2 Preference Cookies

These remember your chosen settings — such as display preferences, theme, and filter selections — so we can provide a more personalised experience. Preference cookies are considered part of essential functionality for logged-in users.

3.3 Analytics Cookies

These help us understand how visitors interact with the Service so we can improve performance, fix issues, and develop new features. They collect aggregated, anonymous information about pages visited, time spent, and errors encountered, and are never used to build advertising profiles.

4. Third-Party Cookies

The Service integrates third-party services that may set their own cookies when you use or interact with features powered by them. These third parties include:

Fleet 22 does not control the cookies set by third parties. Each third-party provider is responsible for its own cookie practices, and we encourage you to review their respective policies.

5. Consent and How We Use It

Under the ePrivacy Directive and GDPR, consent is required before setting non-essential cookies. Sky Index uses only the essential and preference cookies described above, so no consent banner is shown and there is no non-essential category to opt in to.

Advertising: Sky Index does not display third-party advertising and loads no advertising or cross-site tracking scripts, so no advertising cookies are ever set. A Global Privacy Control signal from your browser is honoured as an opt-out preference.

6. Cookie Retention

The length of time a cookie stays on your device depends on its type and purpose:

  • Session cookies: Deleted when you close your browser.
  • Preference storage: Retained until you clear your browser storage.
  • Third-party cookies (Google, Stripe): Retained according to each provider's published retention periods.

7. Managing and Deleting Cookies

You have several ways to control cookies:

  • Browser settings: Most browsers let you accept, block, or delete cookies through their settings. Disabling essential cookies will prevent you from using personalised features such as login.
  • Private / incognito browsing: Browsing privately limits the cookies stored on your device for that session.

Please note that blocking all cookies may impact the functionality of the Service. Essential cookies are required for core features and cannot be disabled if you wish to use the Service.

8. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" signal. There is currently no industry consensus on how to interpret such signals, and Fleet 22 does not currently respond to them.

We also honour Global Privacy Control (GPC), a recognised opt-out preference signal. Because Sky Index loads no advertising or cross-site tracking scripts, there is no such processing to opt out of; your browser settings remain the way to control the essential and preference storage described above.

9. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or the third-party services we use. Material changes will be posted with an updated "Last updated" date. Where a change introduces new non-essential cookies, we will re-prompt for your consent in accordance with applicable law.
