Cookie Policy

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Treasure Islands LLC, operating as Scaling Peak (“we”, “us”, “our”), uses cookies and similar technologies on scalingpeak.com. It forms part of our Privacy Policy and should be read together with it.

By choosing “Accept” in our cookie banner you consent to the non-essential cookies described below. You can change or withdraw that choice at any time — see “How to manage cookies”.

2. What cookies are and why we use them

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device to remember information about your visit. Similar technologies — local storage, session storage and tracking pixels — work in comparable ways, and this policy refers to all of them as “cookies”.

We keep our use of cookies deliberately narrow. The categories we rely on are:

• Strictly necessary — required for the website to work: they remember your cookie choice, keep the site secure and route your traffic. These cannot be switched off.
• Functional — remember preferences such as your language version, so the site behaves the way you left it.
• Analytics — help us understand how visitors find and use the site so we can improve it. Our analytics is privacy-friendly and aggregated: it does not profile individual visitors.
• Third-party embedded content — the scheduling widget used to book a discovery call sets its own cookies, and only after you choose to load it.

We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies, we do not run cross-site tracking, and we never sell the data collected through cookies.

3. Cookies we use

This list reflects the cookies used on scalingpeak.com as of the effective date of this policy. Cookie names set by third parties can change over time, so please also check the provider's own notice.

cookie_consent — first party, strictly necessary

Stores whether you accepted or declined non-essential cookies, so we do not ask again on every page. Retained for 180 days.

i18n_redirected — first party, functional

Remembers the language version of the site you last used. Retained for up to 12 months.

Analytics (Umami) — first party, cookieless

We measure page views, referrers and approximate country with a self-hosted, privacy-friendly analytics tool that sets no cookies, does not follow you across other websites and stores only aggregated data.

Calendly — third party

When you load the scheduling widget on our contact page, Calendly sets its own cookies to run the booking flow and protect it from abuse. These cookies are only set after you allow the widget to load.

Hosting and security — third party, strictly necessary

Our hosting and content-delivery providers may set short-lived cookies to balance traffic, keep requests consistent and block malicious activity.

4. How long cookies stay on your device

Session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or until you delete them; the retention period for each cookie we set is listed above.

Deleting cookies in your browser removes them immediately, including the cookie that stores your consent choice.

5. How to manage cookies

You stay in control of the non-essential cookies used on this site:

• Cookie banner — choose “Decline” to refuse non-essential cookies. To change your decision later, delete the cookie_consent cookie in your browser and reload the page: the banner will appear again.
• Browser settings — every major browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) lets you block or delete cookies, including third-party cookies. Look for “Privacy” or “Cookies and site data” in the settings.
• Scheduling widget — the Calendly widget loads only after you explicitly allow it. If you prefer not to load it, open Calendly in a new tab, use our contact form or email us instead.
• Do Not Track — we run no advertising trackers, so there is nothing for a Do Not Track signal to disable.

Blocking strictly necessary cookies may break parts of the site — for example, the cookie banner will reappear on every page you visit.

6. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this policy when the cookies we use change or when the law requires it. The effective date at the top of this page always shows when it was last revised, so please review it from time to time.
