Cookie Notice

Last updated: 8 September 2026

This notice explains how cookies and similar technologies are used on tesseractai.com.au, the website of Tesseract AI. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers the personal information we collect and what we do with it.

The short version: this is a brochure site. We run no analytics, no advertising and no tracking on it. The only cookies that may be present are the ones needed to serve the site securely and to keep our own team signed in. If that changes, we will update this notice as the change goes live.

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device and can read back later. Local storage and session storage do a similar job in a slightly different way. Cookies can be ordinary and harmless, or they can be used to follow people between websites. It matters which, so the sections below set out what applies here.

What this site uses today

If you are reading pages

We set no cookie of our own when you read the site. WordPress, which the site runs on, does not place cookies on the devices of visitors who only read pages. The plugins we run are a contact form, an SEO plugin and our host’s own management plugin, and none of them set advertising or analytics cookies. Our own theme sets no cookies and writes nothing to local or session storage.

WordPress and our host’s plugin may fetch a page you look likely to open next, so it loads faster. That happens between your browser and this site, and it identifies nobody.

If you send us an enquiry

The enquiry form is Contact Form 7. It sets no advertising or analytics cookies and it builds no profile of you. The form asks you to acknowledge our Privacy Policy before you send it. What you submit is emailed to info@tesseractai.com.au; it is not saved into a database on this site and it is not pushed into a customer relationship management system. How we handle that information is set out in the Privacy Policy.

If someone from our team logs in

Only our own people and contractors have accounts on this website, and visitors cannot register. When one of them logs in, WordPress sets strictly necessary cookies to keep them signed in and to remember dashboard preferences. Those cookies are never set for visitors and they carry no marketing or tracking function.

Cookies our host and its network may set

The site sits on shared WordPress hosting in the United States, and our host serves it through a global content delivery and security network. That network may set a strictly necessary cookie of its own, for example to tell automated traffic from real visitors. Cookies of that kind exist so the site stays available and is not abused. We do not use them for marketing and we do not read them.

Separately, and not by way of cookies, our host keeps standard server logs of requests to the site, including IP addresses, for security and troubleshooting. That is covered in the Privacy Policy.

Typefaces loaded from Google Fonts

The site’s typefaces are served by Google Fonts, from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. Google Fonts sets no cookies, but your browser has to ask Google’s servers for the font files, and that request tells Google your IP address, your browser and the page you are viewing. It happens on every page, and it is a disclosure of information outside Australia, which our Privacy Policy also covers.

We use the service to load typefaces and nothing else, and we get no data back from it. Blocking it changes how the site looks, not what it does.

What we do not use

To be specific, rather than leave you guessing:

  • No analytics. Google Analytics is not installed. Nor is any other analytics, heatmap or session-recording tool.
  • No advertising cookies. No ad pixels, no remarketing or retargeting tags, no conversion tracking.
  • No social media trackers. No embedded feeds or share widgets that report your visit back to a platform.
  • No CAPTCHA or bot check on the form. Cloudflare Turnstile and reCAPTCHA are not installed. This is separate from the network-level protection our host applies, described above.
  • No cross-site profiling, and nothing sold. We build no advertising profiles, and we do not sell or share cookie or browsing data.

A consent banner exists to give you a choice about cookies that are not necessary. We set none of those, so a banner would be asking you to switch off something that is not there.

If we add a tool that sets non-essential cookies, such as analytics, a bot check on the form, or an embedded map or video, we will update this notice and put a real choice in front of you at that point.

None of this narrows your rights. Cookies are only one way information can be collected, and we handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). Our Privacy Policy explains how, and how to raise a concern with us.

How to control cookies in your browser

You stay in control either way. Every major browser lets you see which cookies are stored, delete them and block new ones:

  • Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies and Site settings.
  • Safari: Settings, then Privacy, on both macOS and iOS.
  • Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security.
  • Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions.

Menu names move between versions, so your browser’s own help pages will have the current steps. Blocking cookies will not stop you reading this site or sending us an enquiry. It may stop our own team signing in, and it may get in the way of our host’s security checks.

We link to our sister company at tesseractenergy.com.au, and we may link to other organisations. Once you follow a link, any cookies are set by that site under its own notice, and we have no control over them.

Changes to this notice

If we add analytics, bot protection for the enquiry form, an embedded map or video, a CRM, or anything else that sets cookies, we will update this notice to say what is set, why, and how long it lasts. We will do that as the tool goes live, not afterwards. The date at the top of this page shows the current version.
