Cookie Policy

1.What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit — such as keeping you signed in — and generally make the next visit easier. Cookies can be "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (stored until they expire or you delete them).

2.How We Use Cookies

We keep cookie use to the absolute minimum required to operate our services:

• Sign-in security: the Government Portal uses a session cookie to keep you authenticated after you complete the two-step sign-in
• Security: the same session carries anti-forgery tokens that protect forms against cross-site request forgery

3.Types of Cookies We Use

Cookies are commonly grouped into four categories. Here is where we stand on each:

• Strictly necessary: required for core functionality. Our Government Portal session cookie falls here — the portal cannot function without it.
• Functional: remember preferences like language or layout. We do not use any.
• Analytics: measure traffic and usage. We do not use any.
• Marketing / advertising: track you across sites for ads. We do not use any.

4.Detailed Cookie List

The complete, honest inventory of cookies our websites set:

Our main website at gberntech.com sets no cookies at all — it is a static informational site.

5.Controlling Cookies

Most browsers let you control cookies through their settings. Because our only cookie is strictly necessary for portal sign-in, blocking or deleting it will sign you out of the Government Portal — that is the only effect.

Deleting existing cookies

Clearing your browser's cookies signs you out of the Government Portal; a fresh session cookie is created on your next sign-in. There are no persistent tracking cookies of ours to delete.

6.Third-Party Cookies

We set no third-party cookies. Our pages load fonts and icons from public content delivery networks (Cloudflare CDN, Google Fonts); these resources do not set cookies for our visitors through our pages. Demo Systems on the Government Portal may link to external resources — those external sites have their own cookie practices, which we do not control.

7.Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers transmit "Do Not Track" signals. Because we operate no tracking technology of any kind, there is nothing to disable in response — our practices already match what the signal requests.

8.Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices or technology. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top and post the revised version here. Your continued use of our services after changes take effect indicates your acceptance of the updated policy.
