Cookie Policy
We keep things open and unhurried here — including how we use cookies. This page explains what they are, which ones we use, and how you can manage them.
Last updated: June 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember certain information about your visit — such as your preferences or whether you have already seen a particular notice.
Cookies do not contain your name, payment details, or other personal identifying data on their own. They are a standard part of how most websites function.
2. How We Use Cookies
Concordia uses cookies in a small number of ways, all aimed at making your visit more comfortable and our website more reliable. We do not use cookies to track you across other websites or serve you personalised advertising.
Consent Memory
We store your cookie preference in your browser's local storage so we do not show you the same notice on every visit.
Session Continuity
Session cookies help keep your browsing experience consistent as you move between pages during a single visit.
Basic Analytics
We may use anonymised visit data to understand which pages are most useful, so we can improve our content over time.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
| Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Core site functionality, security, and your cookie preference | Session / 12 months |
| Functional | Remembering your preferences so pages feel familiar on return visits | 6 months |
| Analytics | Anonymised page-visit data to help us improve content | Up to 24 months |
We do not use advertising or tracking cookies that follow you elsewhere on the web.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some pages on this website include content or tools provided by third-party services. These services may place their own cookies on your device. We do not have direct control over those cookies.
For example, our location map is served by Google Maps. When you view the map, Google may set cookies in accordance with their own privacy practices. We encourage you to review Google's Cookie Policy if you have questions about those.
We select third-party integrations carefully and aim to keep them to the minimum needed to make the site genuinely useful.
5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You are in control. There are a few ways to adjust or withdraw your cookie preferences at any time.
Via This Website
When you first visit Concordia's website, a notice at the bottom of the page invites you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice is saved in your browser's local storage. To change your preference, you can clear that stored value in your browser settings and reload the page.
Via Your Browser
Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings menu. The process varies slightly by browser, but it is typically found under Privacy, Security, or History settings. Common browsers include:
- Google Chrome — Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies
- Mozilla Firefox — Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari — Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge — Settings → Cookies and Site Permissions
Opt-Out Tools
For analytics cookies that collect aggregate data, you may also use browser extensions such as the Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on (available from Google's website) to prevent data collection during your visits.
6. Local Storage
In addition to cookies, we use your browser's local storage in one specific way: to save your cookie consent decision. Unlike cookies, local storage data is not sent to our servers with each page request — it stays on your device.
You can clear local storage data at any time through your browser's developer tools or storage settings. Doing so will cause the cookie notice to reappear on your next visit.
7. Thai PDPA Considerations
Thailand's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA B.E. 2562) requires that we handle any personal data — including data collected via cookies — transparently and with care. Where cookies collect data that could be considered personal, we will only do so with a lawful basis, which in most cases is your informed consent.
Strictly necessary cookies, which are required for the site to function, do not require separate consent. For all other cookie types, we ask for your agreement before they are set.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as our website or the tools we use change. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of the page.
We encourage you to review this page occasionally if you would like to stay informed about how we use cookies. Continuing to use the site after a change has been posted means you have seen it.
9. Questions or Concerns
If you have any questions about how we use cookies, or if something here is unclear, we are happy to help. Please reach out to us directly:
