Last updated: 26 July 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Tech Forte (Pty) Ltd trading as Tech Forte (“Tech Forte”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

Where cookies involve personal information, we process that information in line with the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (“POPIA”).

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help sites remember preferences, keep services working and understand how pages are used. Similar technologies include local storage and pixels.

2. How we use cookies

We use cookies to:

  • remember that you have closed or accepted our cookie notice;
  • support basic website functionality and security;
  • measure how visitors use the website via Google Analytics when enabled.

3. Cookies we use

Strictly necessary

These cookies are required for core features. On this website they include our cookie-notice preference cookie:

  • Name: cookie-accepted
  • Purpose: stores that you closed or accepted the cookie notice so we do not show it again
  • Duration: approximately 1 year
  • Type: first-party

Analytics and marketing

When Google Analytics is enabled on the website, Google may set analytics cookies. These help us understand pages viewed, approximate location, device/browser type and similar usage data. You can control cookies through your browser settings. If we introduce additional marketing or advertising cookies, we will update this Cookie Policy and, where required, obtain any consent needed under applicable law.

4. Your choices

When you first visit, a cookie notice appears. Closing the notice indicates you accept our use of cookies as described here. We store that choice in the cookie-accepted cookie so the notice is not shown again on later visits from the same browser.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings (block, delete or alert you about cookies). Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the site behaves—for example the cookie notice may reappear.

For general information about cookies, see resources from your browser vendor or independent guides such as allaboutcookies.org. For privacy questions, see our Privacy Policy or contact the Information Regulator at inforegulator.org.za.
