Cookie Policy

Last Updated: May 26, 2026

1. What are Cookies & Local Storage?

Cookies are micro text documents containing unique identifiers that servers prompt your browser to store on your computers or mobile devices when you visit specific webpages. Cookies and browser-native HTML5 Local Storage allow websites to function smoothly, securely, and efficiently, remembering your preference settings and delivering anonymous analytics to continuously refine interface interactions.

At BUSINESS ARCHITECT GURU PTY LTD (businessarchitectguru.net), we prioritize non-intrusive operations. Our platforms never use cookies to collect sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (PII) or financial ledgers; all local registries are purely deployed for system performance diagnostic purposes.

2. How We Use Cookies & Storage Categories

To secure a premium, seamless interaction with our Enterprise Architecture AI Simulation Checker and ALEX conversational platforms, our cookies are classified into four distinct categories:

A. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These files are crucial to core operations and secure portal pathways. For instance, when you submit inquiry forms, CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) hash tokens generate automatically to shield submitted data from hijacking. Disabling these files halts secure form handoffs and freezes portals. Necessary cookies are automatically wiped when your browser session ends.

B. Functional Cookies

These files remember your configuration inputs to eliminate redundant setup. For example, when you run simulations in the AI Architecture Simulator (review-simulator.html), browser storage retains your selected capability mappings and audit switches. Returning to the page instantly restores your setup for a frictionless operational experience.

C. Analytics & Performance Cookies

To optimize response times and improve visual layouts, we track user telemetry anonymously. These files log volume metrics, duration spent on service pages (such as services-ea.html), page errors, and click-through rates. All collected telemetry is heavily de-identified to guide layout optimizations, and is never used to profile users.

D. Integration & Webhook Sessions

When reading integration documentation (integrations.html) or running API tests, the platform issues temporary session tokens to secure handshakes with sandboxes like Jira or ServiceNow. These sessions track call completeness and automatically expire within 24 hours.

3. Controlling & Purging Cookie States

Under Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), you retain complete control over cookies on your devices. Most modern browsers accept cookies by default.

You can limit or purge cookies at any time using these methods:

  • Incognito Mode: Accessing our website in private browsing windows forces the browser to wipe all cookies and cache the instant you close the window.
  • Purge Browser History: You can clear cookies and site data for selected periods within browser privacy settings at any time.
  • Global Block: You can disable cookies completely or request warnings before they are issued. Note that blocking necessary cookies prevents CSRF security validations and disables local state retention on simulators.

4. Policy Updates & Compliance Declarations

BUSINESS ARCHITECT GURU PTY LTD may update this Cookie Policy to reflect system modifications or changes under Victorian and Australian federal laws. We advise checking this page periodically to remain aligned with current rules.
