Cookie Policy

This policy explains cookies and similar browser storage used by the website, what is necessary, and how you control optional technologies.

1. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small pieces of information stored by a website or service in your browser. Websites can also use local storage and related technologies for similar purposes. UK privacy rules apply to storing information on or accessing information from a user's device, subject to limited exemptions for technologies that are strictly necessary.

2. Strictly necessary technology

We may use strictly necessary storage for account authentication, session continuity, security, requested service functions and remembering your privacy choice. These functions are required to provide a service you request or keep the service secure and are not switched off by optional-cookie controls.

3. Payment technology

If online card checkout is enabled, the payment provider, for example Stripe, may use cookies or similar technology that is necessary to provide checkout, payment security and fraud-prevention functionality. The payment provider may also provide its own privacy and cookie information within or around the payment service.

4. Optional analytics and marketing

We do not intentionally load optional analytics or advertising cookies before you have made an appropriate choice. If optional analytics, advertising or similar technologies are introduced, they must remain off unless consent or another lawful exemption applies, and this policy will be updated to identify their purpose and duration.

5. Your choice

The cookie control lets you choose essential-only storage or permit optional cookies. You can reopen the control using the Cookie settings button. Rejecting optional cookies must not prevent access to ordinary website content or the core membership service.

6. Browser controls

You can also delete or block cookies through your browser. Blocking strictly necessary storage may prevent sign-in or other requested functions from working correctly.

7. Review

We review this policy whenever website technologies or service providers materially change, including when analytics, advertising, embedded media or new third-party services are introduced.
