We may update this policy from time to time. Your continued use of the Site following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the modified policy. 2. INTRODUCTION Black Mark Solutions LLC (the "Company") operates the Site to provide information about our business advisory services, including management consulting, negotiation and procurement advisory, and strategic investment analysis. This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and local storage technology on our Site. 3. WHAT ARE COOKIES A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit the website. Cookies are sent to your device and stored by your web browser. When you return to the website, your browser sends the cookie back to the website so the website can recognize your device and remember information about your previous visit. 4. WHAT IS LOCAL STORAGE Local storage (also called web storage) is a technology that allows websites to store small amounts of data directly on your device. Unlike cookies, local storage data is not automatically sent to the website with each visit. Local storage persists until you manually clear it or until a website removes it. 5. WHAT THIS SITE STORES The Site uses only essential local storage and does not use cookies. We store the following information in your browser's local storage: 5.1 Preferred Language Preference When you use the language toggle on our Site to switch between English and Spanish, your selection is saved in local storage under the key "preferred-lang". This allows us to display the Site in your preferred language on your next visit without requiring you to select it again. 5.2 Consent Choice When you interact with the cookie consent banner on our Site, your consent choice is stored in local storage. This storage is necessary to remember whether you have acknowledged this policy and to honor your consent preferences on future visits. 6. WHAT THIS SITE DOES NOT USE The Site does not use any of the following: 6.1 Analytics Cookies or Pixels We do not use cookies or pixels to track your behavior, measure site performance, or collect analytics data. 6.2 Advertising or Marketing Cookies We do not use cookies to serve you advertisements, build advertising profiles, or track you across other websites for marketing purposes. 6.3 Third-Party Cookies We do not allow third parties to place cookies or tracking technologies on our Site. We do not integrate third-party analytics services, advertising networks, social media pixels, or similar tracking tools. 7. THE CONSENT BANNER When you first visit the Site, you will see a cookie consent banner. This banner informs you about our storage practices and allows you to acknowledge this policy. The banner includes the following options: 7.1 Accept If you click "Accept," we will store your consent choice in local storage and store your language preference as you use the Site. This indicates your agreement to the storage practices described in this policy. 7.2 Decline or Reject If you click "Decline," "Reject," or a similar option, we will store only the minimum information necessary: your consent choice itself. Your language preference will not be stored. 8. HOW TO CHANGE OR WITHDRAW CONSENT You may change or withdraw your consent at any time. 8.1 Consent Withdrawal Link A link to update your consent preferences appears in the footer of every page on the Site. You can click this link to access the consent banner again and change your choices. 8.2 No Penalty for Withdrawal Withdrawing consent will not affect your ability to view informational content on the Site. If you withdraw consent for storage of your language preference, the Site will display in English by default on your next visit. 9.

Our limited use of local storage is essential to Site function and is not tracking in the sense DNT was designed to address. 11.
