Draft for review
This page is a draft. Before launch, the items below need confirming and the page needs a legal review. Anything in square brackets is a placeholder.
- The analytics tool, if one is switched on, and its cookies (to add to the table before it goes live)
What cookies are
Cookies and browser storage are small pieces of information a website saves in your browser. Some are needed for the site to work. Others, such as analytics, are optional and only used if you allow them.
Your choice
The first time you visit, a banner asks whether you allow analytics. Nothing optional runs until you choose. You can change your mind at any time with the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of every page.
What this site uses
Necessary (always on):
| Name | Set by | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| ctf_consent | This site (local storage) | Remembers whether you allowed or rejected analytics, so the banner does not ask again | Until you change your choice or clear your browser data |
| ctf_attr | This site (session storage) | Remembers the first page you landed on, the site that referred you and any campaign tags, so they can be attached to a form you send during this visit | Until you close the tab |
| ctf_admin | This site (cookie) | Keeps the site's editors signed in to the back end. Only set when someone signs in at /admin/ | 12 hours, or until they sign out |
Optional (only with your permission):
| Name | Set by | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| None at present | No analytics tool is switched on yet. This table will list its cookies before one is used. |
The fonts and images on this site are served from this site itself, so no third-party font or image service sees your visit. The Member login link takes you to Circle, which sets its own cookies under its own policy.
