🍪 Cookie Policy

Effective Date: 15 July 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how 3 Axis Holdings (Pty) Ltd (“we,” “us,” “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit 3axisholdings.co.za (the “Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

By clicking “Accept” on our cookie banner or continuing to use the Site after seeing the banner, you consent to the use of cookies as described below. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time.


1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences and can be used for analytics, functionality, security, and advertising. Related technologies (pixels, tags, local storage) work similarly; we refer to all as “cookies” in this policy.


2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to:

  • Ensure the Site works correctly (required functionality).

  • Remember user preferences (e.g., contact form fields).

  • Understand how visitors use our Site (analytics & performance).

  • Improve content, services, and user experience.

  • Support embedded third-party services (e.g., video players, form integrations).

We do not sell cookie data.


3. Types of Cookies We Use

(a) Strictly Necessary Cookies

Essential for core functions like page navigation, security, and form submission. Cannot be disabled via our banner (you can block in your browser, but the Site may break).

(b) Functional / Preference Cookies

Remember settings such as language, region, or form data to improve usability.

(c) Analytics & Performance Cookies

Help us understand traffic, page usage, and engagement so we can improve the Site. (Example: Google Analytics.)

Used by integrated services (e.g., embedded YouTube videos, social platforms, CRM tracking pixels) which may collect data across sites.

You can reopen preferences at any time via the Cookie Settings link in the footer.

Through Your Browser

Most browsers let you block, delete, or control cookies:

Blocking some cookies may impact site performance.


6. Legal Basis (GDPR / POPIA Alignment)

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: Legitimate interest (ensuring the Site functions).

  • All Other Cookies: Consent (requested via banner and/or settings panel).


7. Global Privacy Control & Do Not Track

If your browser supports Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals, we will treat this as a request to disable non-essential cookies where technically feasible. Traditional Do Not Track (DNT) signals are not consistently honored across the web, but we aim to respect user privacy preferences.


8. Third-Party Services

Some content on our Site (e.g., embedded videos, analytics tools, scheduling widgets) is served by third parties who may set their own cookies. We recommend reviewing their privacy terms. These services may include:

  • Google Analytics

  • YouTube (for embedded videos)

  • LinkedIn / Meta tracking (if used)

  • CRM / form integrations (e.g., HubSpot, Zoho)

Let me know which apply and I’ll customize this section.
