Cookies on the Bramhall Parish Church website
This website uses cookies and similar technologies to help the website work properly, understand how the site is being used and, where you have given permission, support additional website features.
The website is provided using Squarespace.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small file stored on your computer, phone or other device when you visit a website.
Cookies can help websites remember information about your visit, operate essential functions and understand how visitors use the site.
Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser, while others remain on your device for a set period of time.
The types of cookies we use
Essential cookies
These are required for the website to operate properly.
They may be used for things such as:
website security;
remembering your cookie choices;
providing forms or other website functions;
maintaining website performance; and
delivering pages correctly.
Because these cookies are necessary for the website to work, they do not normally require your consent.
Analytics and performance cookies
Squarespace may provide website analytics that help us understand how people use the website.
This may include information such as:
which pages are visited;
how visitors arrive at the website;
how long people spend on parts of the site;
the type of device or browser being used; and
general information about website traffic.
Where these cookies are not strictly necessary, they should only be used after you have given permission through our cookie settings.
Functional cookies
Some features of the website may use cookies to remember preferences or provide additional functionality.
These may include services embedded within the website.
Where consent is required, these cookies will only be used after you have chosen to allow them.
Third-party content
Some pages may include content or services supplied by other organisations, for example video, maps, social media or other embedded content.
These services may set their own cookies or collect information when you interact with them.
The way these cookies operate is controlled by the relevant third-party provider.
Your cookie choices
When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie banner allowing you to choose how non-essential cookies are used.
You can choose to:
accept non-essential cookies;
reject them; or
change your cookie preferences.
Rejecting optional cookies should not prevent you from accessing the main information on the website.
UK guidance requires consent for non-essential cookies to involve a clear positive choice; simply continuing to use a website does not count as valid consent. ICO
Changing your choices
You can change or withdraw your cookie preferences using the Cookie Settings option on this website.
You can also control cookies through your web browser. Most browsers allow you to delete existing cookies or block some or all cookies. ICO
Blocking all cookies may affect the way some parts of the website work.
Squarespace cookies
Because this website is hosted by Squarespace, some cookies are set or managed by Squarespace as part of providing the website.
The exact cookies used can change as Squarespace updates its platform or as we add or remove website features.
For this reason, we do not attempt to reproduce a permanent technical list of every Squarespace cookie on this page.
Instead, the current cookie controls on the website should be used to manage optional cookies.
Other services
If we add services such as embedded YouTube videos, maps, forms, ticketing systems or other third-party content, those services may introduce additional cookies.
We will review our cookie information and consent settings when significant new services are added.
Personal information
Where information collected through cookies identifies or could identify an individual, it will also be handled in accordance with our Privacy Notice.
