COOKIES POLICY

Purpose of this Policy

Our website https://www.psjuk.org uses cookies and similar technologies on our website to improve your experience, understand how our website is used and support our mission.

This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them and your choices about managing them. It applies to citizens and legal permanent residents of the United Kingdom.

 

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit any website including ours. They help websites recognise your device, store preferences, and provide a more tailored experience. Cookies can be:

  • Session cookies which are deleted when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
  • First-party cookies which are set by the website you are visiting (e.g. the cookies we use on our website)
  • Third-party cookies, which are set by other organisations (e.g. Stripe or third party providers) 


How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for a few different reasons. 

First, there are the essential cookies, which are necessary for the site to work. They handle security, page navigation, and make sure that forms and donation pages run properly. Without them, you wouldn’t be able to use the site in the way you expect.

We also use performance or analytics cookies to give us insight as to how people are using the website. These cookies don’t tell us who you are, but they give us insights into which pages are most popular, how long people spend with us, and whether there are areas of the site we need to improve. We ask your permission to place statistics cookies. 

There are also functional cookies, which remember your user preferences, for example, your language or region. By placing these functional cookies, we make it easier for you to visit our website. This way, you do not need to repeatedly enter the same information when visiting our website and

In some cases, you may encounter third-party cookies. For example, if you make a donation or payment through our website, providers like PayPal or Stripe may place cookies on your device. These are used to process your transaction securely, prevent fraud, and make sure the payment service remembers the details it needs to complete the process.

You may also see cookies from social media platforms such as Facebook, X, Instagram, YouTube or LinkedIn if you share our content or follow links from our site. These social media companies might store and process certain information for personalised advertising. Please read the privacy statement of these social networks (which can change regularly) to read what they do with your (personal) data which they process using these cookies. The data collected through these cookies is minimised where possible, but may still include personal data depending on your account settings with those platforms.

We want you to be in control of your data. We will not place non-essential cookies (such as analytics or social media cookies) unless you have given your consent through our cookie banner. When you first visit our website, you’ll see a banner that lets you choose whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can also change your mind later by adjusting your browser settings or revisiting your cookie preferences on our site. Please note that turning off certain cookies may affect how the website works for you.
