1. Technical Overview & Statutory Background
This Cookie Policy explains how ONLINE ADVENTURES LTD (trading as Flowpilot) utilizes browser cookies, local storage objects, and session telemetry on onlineadventures.co.uk in strict adherence to the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (UK PECR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and the UK GDPR.
In accordance with Google Merchant Center compliance rules and UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) directives, we enforce Google Consent Mode v2. No non-essential analytical or marketing cookies are stored or activated on your device until you grant affirmative, explicit consent.

2. Google Consent Mode v2 Technical Implementation
Before any Google analytics or measurement scripts execute, our system initializes Google Consent Mode v2 with default denied states directly inside the HTML head:
ad_storage: denied (Stores ad measurement identifiers)ad_user_data: denied (Transmits user data for advertising purposes)ad_personalization: denied (Controls personalized remarketing)analytics_storage: denied (Measures site telemetry and duration)
Only when a user clicks "Accept All Cookies" are these signals updated to granted. If a user clicks "Reject Non-Essential", the parameters remain strictly denied, and Google tags transmit only cookieless aggregate pings without tracking user identity across domains.
