Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognise your browser on return visits and to remember certain information — such as your preferences or session state. Cookies cannot access other files on your device and cannot execute programmes.

Related technologies such as local storage and pixel trackers function similarly and are covered by the same categories described in this policy.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies in three categories: essential cookies that are necessary for the website to function, analytics cookies that help us understand how visitors use the site, and marketing cookies that support our advertising on external platforms. Each category is described below, along with the specific cookies in use.

3. Essential Cookies

These cookies are required for the website to operate correctly. They cannot be disabled without affecting the functionality of the site. They do not collect personal data for marketing purposes and do not track you across other websites.

PHPSESSID	Maintains your session state while browsing (e.g. form completion)	Session	Vectorise

4. Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are visited most, how long visitors stay, and where they navigate from. This information is aggregated and used to improve the site. It is not used to identify individual visitors.

5. Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to measure the effectiveness of our advertising on platforms such as Meta (Facebook/Instagram) and Microsoft Ads. They help us understand whether someone who clicked one of our ads later visited our site. These cookies may track your activity across other websites.

Name	Purpose	Duration	Provider
_fbp	Used by Meta Pixel to identify browsers for ad conversion measurement	3 months	Meta
_fbc	Stores click identifiers from Meta ad links	3 months	Meta
MUID	Used by Microsoft to identify unique users across Microsoft domains for Bing Ads	13 months	Microsoft

6. Managing Your Preferences

You can adjust your cookie preferences below at any time. Essential cookies are always active. Changes to analytics and marketing preferences take effect immediately for future page loads; however, cookies already set on your device may persist until they expire or until you clear them through your browser settings.

7. Browser-Level Cookie Control

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies at any time. Note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites. Guidance for common browsers:

• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
• Apple Safari
• Microsoft Edge

For opt-out tools provided by specific platforms, you may also visit the Your Online Choices portal or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.

8. Third-Party Providers

Some cookies on this site are set by third-party services. These providers have their own privacy and cookie policies which govern their use of the data collected:

• Google: policies.google.com/privacy
• Meta: facebook.com/privacy/policy
• Microsoft: privacy.microsoft.com

9. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes or as regulatory guidance evolves. The effective date at the top of this page reflects when the current version came into force. Where changes are material, we will notify enrolled students by email.
