Cookie Policy
Effective: 2026-10-06
This Cookie Policy explains how QA Test Projects Ltd (stage test company) uses cookies and similar technologies (local storage, pixels) on this website.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your browser. Some are needed for the site to work; others help us understand how the site is used or let our partners recognise a visit that came from us.
How we use them
- Essential — needed for the site to function and to remember your cookie choice. They are set without consent because the site does not work without them.
- Measurement — help us count visits and see which comparisons are useful. Set only with your consent.
- Partner tracking — when you click through to a partner, the partner may set a cookie to attribute your visit to us. This is how we are paid; it is described in our Affiliate Disclosure.
Your choice
On your first visit we ask which non-essential cookies you allow. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time from the cookie settings link in the footer, and you can delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may stop parts of the site working.

The site's own measurement uses /__t/ on this domain. External providers are listed separately.
Partner links use this site's /goto redirect with a click reference for attribution. Storage on the destination website is governed by that partner's policy.
External services
- Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com / fonts.gstatic.com) — Optional features; Runs when its purpose is enabled. Google Fonts receives your browser's IP address when loading fonts. Font requests set no cookies and wait for Optional features.
Your choices
The banner asks about each optional purpose separately. Necessary storage is always on. You can change your choice at any time with the Cookie settings link at the bottom of every page.

- Analytics — Helps us understand how the site is used: a pseudonymous visitor id and page statistics.
- Advertising cookies — Lets our advertising partners store and read cookies on this device to recognise that an advert led to your visit or a partner click.
- Data for advert measurement — Lets us send Google information about your visit and partner click (for example, which advert you came from) so our adverts can be measured.
- Personalised advertising — Lets Google use this information to show you personalised adverts and remarketing.
- Site personalisation — Lets the site adapt optional content to you, such as remembering what you looked at.
- Optional features — Loads optional features from third parties, such as web fonts.
