Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how spinkinguk.uk uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our site. Plain and simple - we want you to know what’s being collected, why, and what you can do about it. No hidden surprises. We believe transparency is non-negotiable, so this document lays it all out in language that actually makes sense rather than burying the details in legal jargon you’d need a law degree to decode.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that get stored on your device - laptop, phone, tablet, whatever you’re browsing on - when you visit a website. They’re not programs. They can’t run code or carry viruses. Think of them as tiny sticky notes a website leaves behind so it can recognise you next time. Some cookies disappear the moment you close your browser (session cookies), while others stick around for weeks or months (persistent cookies). There are also third-party cookies set by services we use, like analytics providers, rather than by us directly.

How and why cookies are used

We use cookies for a few distinct reasons. First, strictly necessary cookies - these keep the site working properly. Without them, pages won’t load right and certain features just break. Second, analytics cookies help us understand how visitors move around the site: which pages get the most traffic, where people drop off, how long they stay. We use this data to fix problems and improve the experience. Third, preference cookies remember your settings so you don’t have to reconfigure things every single visit. We don’t use cookies to serve you targeted advertising, and we don’t sell cookie data to third parties. Ever.

Your rights

You’ve got real choices here. You can accept all cookies, reject non-essential ones, or customise exactly which categories you’re comfortable with - all through the cookie banner that appears on your first visit. Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies directly in settings; check your browser’s help section for the exact steps. Keep in mind that turning off certain cookies might affect how parts of the site function. That’s a trade-off, and it’s entirely yours to make.

Effective Date

This Cookie Policy is effective as of January 1, 2026. We may update it periodically, so it’s worth checking back if you’re a regular visitor.
