PLC Technologies uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to ensure our website functions correctly and to provide a seamless experience for our industrial and trade partners.
1. What are Cookies?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device. It allows our website to remember your preferences (such as your regional branch in Gauteng or Cape Town) and ensures that features like the “Request a Quote” cart work correctly.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for you to move around the website and use its features. Without these, our e-commerce and technical support portals will not function.
- Performance & Analytics: We use tools like Google Analytics to understand how engineers and procurement officers use our site so we can improve the layout and information density.
- Functional Cookies: These remember choices you make (such as your username or language) to provide a more personalized experience.
3. Tracking Technologies & Web Beacons
We may use “pixels” in our technical newsletters to see if our updates are being read. This helps us ensure we are only sending relevant product notices and avoid clogging your inbox with unnecessary mail.
4. Managing Your Privacy
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies.
- Browser Controls: You can set your browser to refuse cookies, though this may disable certain “Member Area” or “Quote Request” features.
- Our Commitment: PLC Technologies never uses cookies to store passwords, financial data, or sensitive engineering specifications.
