Cookie Policy

A cookie is a short text file that the site you are visiting places in your browser; it lets the site remember a setting or a decision you have made. Browsers provide similar mechanisms, in particular local storage, which keeps small entries until they are removed. This policy treats them in the same way.

You can change your decision at any time: remove this website's stored data in the settings of your browser and reload a page; the earlier value is then gone and a new answer replaces it when you are next asked. Browsers also let you manage cookies yourself, usually in the privacy area of the settings, where entries can be reviewed, removed or refused, for one site or for all of them.

Because this website only informs and offers ways to contact us, it needs hardly any stored entries. Those that are strictly necessary keep the pages usable and safe and may include a value that remembers your cookie decision; consent is not needed for them.

The server that delivers this website sets one cookie of this kind. It contains only a random value, nothing that identifies you by name, and serves to recognise a returning browser and to protect the site against automated abuse. The cookie is renewed whenever you come back and is deleted 30 days after your last visit.

We use no advertising cookies, no marketing pixels and no trackers that follow visitors to other websites, and information from your visit is not sold or passed on for advertising. Where it can be related to a person, our privacy policy explains the legal bases, the storage periods and your rights.

Some entries exist only while the browser window is open; others are given a defined lifetime so that a preference survives until the next visit. An answer recorded by a cookie notice is not set to expire and remains until you delete it or your browser clears it.

If this website shows a cookie notice, it appears on your first visit with one button to agree and one to decline. Your answer is then kept as a single value in the local storage of that browser (localStorage); the notice itself sets no cookie. In another browser, on another device or where storage is blocked, it is shown again.

No external content with cookies of its own is integrated at present. Should an embedded map or video be used in future, its provider may store information on your device as soon as the content is displayed, and this page would be amended before such an element is published.

Whenever the technology behind trendumu.org changes or new rules require it, this policy is updated, and the current version, with the date of its last revision, is always the one published here. If something is unclear, write to [email protected] or call 01305 428160.
