1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site work properly and can also be used to understand how people use the site.

2. How culcheth.org.uk uses cookies

culcheth.org.uk keeps cookies to a minimum. We use cookies only for:

  • Essential purposes (to make the site work properly and securely), and

  • Analytics (to understand how the site is used and improve it).

We do not use cookies for advertising, marketing, or tracking you across other websites.

3. Types of cookies we use

Essential cookies (always on)

These cookies are necessary for the website to function. They may include cookies used for:

  • security (for example, protecting the site from abuse),

  • load balancing, and

  • basic site functionality.

Because these cookies are required for the site to work, they cannot be switched off through our website settings. You can still block them in your browser, but some parts of the site may not work.

Analytics cookies (optional)

We may use analytics cookies to help us understand:

  • which pages are visited most often,

  • how visitors move around the site,

  • what content is most useful,

  • and where the site can be improved.

Analytics cookies are used only to improve culcheth.org.uk. We do not use them to identify you personally.

4. Third-party cookies

We may use a third-party analytics provider to collect anonymous usage statistics.

Other than analytics cookies, we do not use any third-party cookies (for example: advertising networks, social media tracking pixels, or embedded marketing tools).

5. Managing your cookie preferences

You can control cookies in two main ways:

  • On the website (if a cookie banner/settings are provided): you can accept or reject analytics cookies.

  • In your browser: you can block or delete cookies at any time. Each browser is different, but settings are usually found under “Privacy” or “Security”.

6. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do.

Quick plain-English summary
