    This Cookie Policy explains how Tranquility Cycles CIC (“we”, “us” or “our”) uses
    cookies and similar technologies on our website.
    Our website is:
    www.tranquilitycycles.org.uk
    This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we
    collect and use personal information.
  2. What are cookies?
    Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone or other
    device when you visit a website.
    They can be used for a number of purposes, such as helping a website to function,
    remembering your preferences, understanding how visitors use a website or
    providing additional features.
    The rules also apply to technologies other than traditional cookies where they store
    information on, or access information from, your device. These can include tracking
    pixels, web storage, scripts and tags.
  3. How we use cookies
    We use cookies and similar technologies to help our website function and, where
    you give us permission, to understand how people use our website and improve the
    services we provide.
    We may use the following categories of cookies:
    Strictly necessary cookies
    These cookies are essential for the website to operate properly or to provide a
    service that you have requested.
    For example, they may be used to:
     maintain website security;
     remember your cookie preferences;
     enable forms or other essential website functions; or
     support the technical operation of the website.

These cookies do not require consent where they are genuinely strictly necessary
for a service requested by the user.
Analytics cookies

We may use analytics cookies to help us understand how visitors use our website.
For example, analytics may tell us:
 how many people visit our website;
 which pages are visited;
 how visitors find our website; and
 how we can improve the website.

We will only use non-essential analytics cookies where we have obtained the
appropriate consent.
Functional cookies

Some cookies may be used to provide additional functionality or remember choices
you make when using our website.
For example, these may remember preferences or enable embedded services.
We will ask for consent where this is required.
Marketing or advertising cookies

We may use cookies or similar technologies to help us understand engagement with
our communications or to support marketing and advertising activities.
Where these technologies are not exempt from the consent requirements, we will
obtain your consent before using them.

  1. Third-party cookies and services
    Some features on our website may be provided by third-party organisations.
    For example, our website may contain:
     embedded videos;
     social media content;
     maps;

 online booking systems;
 payment services; or
 analytics services.
These third-party services may use cookies or similar technologies.
[INSERT ACTUAL SERVICES USED BY THE CIC]
Where we use third-party technologies that require consent, we will ask for your
permission before they are activated.
The ICO’s current guidance makes clear that the rules apply to third-party
technologies incorporated into a website as well as technologies operated directly by
the website owner.

  1. Managing your cookie preferences
    When you first visit our website, you may be presented with a cookie banner or
    consent mechanism allowing you to choose which non-essential cookies you wish to
    accept.
    You can:
     accept all cookies;
     reject non-essential cookies; or
     manage your preferences by category.

    We will not use non-essential cookies before you have given the appropriate
    consent.
    Simply continuing to browse the website does not constitute consent to non-
    essential cookies. Consent must involve a clear and positive action.
  2. How long do cookies remain on your device?
    Cookies may be either:
    Session cookies – these are deleted when you close your browser.
    Persistent cookies – these remain on your device for a specified period or until you
    delete them.
    The length of time each cookie remains on your device depends on its purpose.
    We will review the cookies used on our website periodically and will not retain
    cookies for longer than necessary for their stated purpose.

     delete cookies;
     block cookies;
     block third-party cookies; or
     receive a warning before cookies are placed.
    Please be aware that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect the functionality
    of our website.
