Cookies

Last updated: 10/7/26

This Cookie Policy explains how Professional Management Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit profmgtinc.net (the “Site”).

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help a site work properly, remember your preferences, and provide information about how the site is used. We use “cookies” in this policy to include similar technologies such as pixels and local storage.

2. How we use cookies

Our Site is hosted on WordPress.com, a service provided by Automattic Inc. Cookies on our Site are set mainly by the WordPress.com platform. We use them to:

  • Operate the Site. These cookies keep the Site secure and functioning, including for administrators and subscribers who log in.
  • Remember preferences. If you leave a comment or subscribe to updates, cookies may remember your details for next time.
  • Measure traffic. WordPress.com Stats collects aggregated information about visits, such as pages viewed, referring sites, and approximate location, so we can improve the Site. It uses a tracking pixel (pixel.wp.com) and may set cookies.

We do not use cookies to show you advertising, and we do not sell personal information.

3. Third-party cookies

Automattic may set cookies as described in its own policy: https://automattic.com/cookies/. If we add services such as an embedded map, video, or social media feed, those providers may set their own cookies. Links from our Site to Facebook, Instagram, or other sites do not set cookies unless you click through, and those sites have their own policies.

4. Your choices

You can control cookies through your browser settings, including blocking or deleting them. Instructions are available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the Site work. You can also enable your browser’s Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track setting, though our Site may not respond to these signals.

5. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above shows the latest revision.
