Cookie Policy

Last updated: October 1, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Argyle Systems Inc. (“Argyle,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies. Read it together with our Privacy Notice. Capitalized terms used here have the meanings given in the Privacy Notice or the Consumer Terms. If you have questions, contact us at privacy@argyle.com.

1. What Cookies Are.

Cookies are text files a website stores on your device to recognize your browser, remember your settings, and understand how the site is used. Local storage technologies such as HTML5 do the same thing and can hold more data. Web beacons — also called pixel tags or clear GIFs — show that a page was opened or a link was clicked. This Cookie Policy calls all of these “cookies.”

Some cookies last only until you close your browser. Others stay on your device for a set period or until you delete them. Some are set by us, and some are set by a service provider at our request.

2. What We Collect Through Cookies.

We and our service providers log information about your interactions with the Services, such as:

2.1 Device information. Operating system type and version, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, device type, IP address, unique identifiers, language settings, mobile carrier, network information, and general location such as a city or region.

2.2 Online activity information. Pages or screens viewed, how long you spend on a page, the site you came from, navigation paths, access times and duration, and whether you open our emails or click links in them.

Where this information sits depends on where you are. On argyle.com it is Your Data, and Section 2 of the Privacy Notice governs it. In Argyle Link and Argyle Passport it forms part of your Direction Records — our record of the direction you gave — and Section 1 of the Privacy Notice governs it, including how long we keep it.

3. The Cookies We Use.

We use the categories of cookies described below.

3.1 Necessary cookies. These make the Services work — page navigation, session management, and access to secure areas. The Services cannot function properly without them.

3.2 Functional cookies. These let the Services remember choices that change how they look or behave, such as your language or region.

3.3 Analytics cookies. These let us count visitors and see how people move through the Services, so we can understand what works and improve it. We use third-party analytics providers for this, including Google Analytics and Hotjar. Hotjar runs only in the Argyle customer console. We do not use session recording or replay technology in Argyle Link or Argyle Passport, or anywhere you enter payroll or bank credentials.

3.4 Advertising cookies. These record your visit to the Services and the pages you visit, so that advertising can be made more relevant to you. On argyle.com we use advertising technologies provided by LinkedIn, Google and Microsoft. We are not running advertising campaigns at this time.

In Argyle Link and Argyle Passport we use necessary, functional and analytics cookies. We do not place advertising cookies there; because those services share the argyle.com domain, a cookie set on our Website may still be readable in them. Depending on where you are, the maximum expiration period for the cookies above is two years.

We may also use web beacons in emails we send you, to count how many recipients opened a message and followed a link. We use that to understand how a message performed and to make later messages more useful. If you would rather not have web beacons load, set your email client to receive our messages in plain text rather than HTML.

4. How to Control Cookies.

Where the law requires it, we ask for your permission before setting any cookie that is not necessary, and you can change your mind at any time using the cookie settings link on our Website.

4.1 Your browser. Most browsers let you remove or reject cookies through their settings, and many let you see what has been set on your device. For more about cookies generally, see allaboutcookies.org.

4.2 Privacy tools. Browsers with built-in privacy features, and extensions that block third-party cookies and trackers, will also limit what is set.

Cookie controls are specific to the browser and device where you set them, so you need to set them on each browser and device you use.

5. Do Not Track and Opt-Out Preference Signals.

Browsers offer a “Do Not Track” option, but there is no common standard for it and the Services do not respond to it. Where your browser sends a global privacy control or similar opt-out preference signal, we treat it as a request to opt out of any sale or sharing of personal information, and we apply it to the browser and device that sent it.
