Cookie Policy
Plai Advisors · Last Updated: 10 April 2025
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They allow the site to remember certain information about your visit — for example, whether you have dismissed a notice, or to count how many people have visited a particular page. Cookies do not give us access to your device, and they cannot carry viruses or other harmful programs.
Most web browsers accept cookies by default, though you can usually adjust your browser settings to decline them. Declining certain cookies may affect how parts of the website function.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies in a small number of ways, and only for purposes that serve the site's operation or help us understand how it is used. We do not use cookies to track you across other websites, to build advertising profiles, or to sell data to third parties.
The categories we use are described below.
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function. They cannot be switched off. They are typically set in response to actions you take — such as dismissing a cookie notice or submitting a contact form. They store no personally identifiable information.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
cookie_consent |
Stores your cookie consent preference so the notice does not appear on every page. | 12 months |
session_id |
Maintains a temporary session identifier for form submissions. | Session (deleted on browser close) |
3.2 Analytics Cookies (Optional)
With your consent, we use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use the website — which pages are visited, how long visits last, and whether pages are navigated on mobile or desktop devices. This data is aggregated and does not identify individuals. We use this to improve the clarity and structure of our content.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
_ga |
Google Analytics — distinguishes unique users. Data is anonymised and aggregated. | 2 years |
_ga_* |
Google Analytics — maintains session state for analytics measurement. | 2 years |
_gid |
Google Analytics — distinguishes users over a 24-hour window. | 24 hours |
Analytics cookies are only placed if you select "Accept optional cookies" in the cookie notice on your first visit. You may withdraw consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings or by contacting us.
3.3 Embedded Content (Third-Party Cookies)
Our website embeds a Google Maps panel on the homepage to show our location. When this panel loads, Google may set its own cookies in line with Google's Cookie Policy. These cookies are outside our control. If you prefer not to receive them, you may disable the embedded map in your browser or use a browser extension that blocks third-party frames.
We do not embed social media buttons, video players, or other third-party content that would introduce additional cookie sources.
4. Your Choices
When you first visit the site, a small notice at the foot of the page invites you to accept or decline optional cookies. Your choice is saved for twelve months. You may change it at any time by:
- Clearing your browser cookies — this resets the preference and the notice will appear again on your next visit.
- Adjusting your browser's cookie settings directly. Most browsers allow you to block third-party cookies, or all cookies, through their privacy settings.
- Writing to us at [email protected] — we will reset your preference on our end.
Declining analytics cookies will not affect your ability to read content, use the contact form, or enquire about programmes.
5. Cookies and the PDPA
Thailand's Personal Data Protection Act B.E. 2562 (PDPA) applies to personal data. Strictly necessary cookies do not collect personal data and do not require consent under the PDPA. Optional analytics cookies, which may indirectly identify a browser session, are placed only with your explicit consent as required by the Act.
For information on how we handle personal data more broadly — including your rights of access, correction, and deletion — please read our Privacy Policy.
6. Updates to This Policy
We may update this cookie policy if we introduce new functionality to the website, or if relevant regulation changes. When we do, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Significant changes that affect optional cookies will prompt the consent notice to appear again on your next visit.
