Cookie Policy

1. What cookies are

Cookies and similar technologies store or access information on a device when a website is used. They can support essential website functions, remember preferences, measure performance and support advertising or analytics.

2. Our approach

We will provide clear information about the cookies and similar technologies used on our website. Strictly necessary technologies may be used where required for the website to function. Non-essential analytics, functionality or advertising cookies will not be set until the user has taken a clear positive action to consent, unless a specific legal exemption applies.

3. Categories

• Strictly necessary: required for core website or security functions.
• Functional: remember choices or improve functionality.
• Analytics/performance: help us understand how the website is used.
• Advertising/targeting: support measurement, audience creation or relevant advertising.

4. Third-party services

The website may use services such as Google analytics products, Meta/Facebook advertising tools or other platform integrations. The exact cookies in use can change when website services change. The live cookie-consent tool should therefore be treated as the current list of cookies, providers, purposes and durations.

5. Consent choices

Users must be able to reject non-essential cookies as well as accept them, and to change their preferences later. Continuing to browse the site is not treated as consent to non-essential cookies.

6. Personal information

Some cookie information, such as online identifiers or IP addresses, may be personal information. Where personal information is processed, the Academy's Privacy Policy also applies.

7. Review

This policy and the website consent mechanism should be reviewed whenever significant website technology changes are made and at least annually.
