3. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow websites to recognise your browser, remember information and provide certain functions.

Cookies may be stored temporarily during your browsing session or remain on your device for a specified period.

Cookies can help websites remember your login status, maintain shopping baskets, store preferences, improve performance and understand how visitors use a service.

Some cookies are essential for the website to operate. Others are optional and may be used for analytics, personalisation or advertising.

4. Similar Technologies

In addition to traditional cookies, websites may use technologies such as local storage, session storage, pixels, tags and other browser-based identifiers.

Where these technologies store information on, or access information from, your device, they may be subject to the same privacy and consent requirements as cookies.

References to cookies in this policy include these technologies where relevant.

5. How Partners Academy Uses Cookies

Partners Academy is an online learning and professional networking platform.

Depending on the services and technologies enabled on the website, cookies may support:

  • Member registration and secure login.
  • Account authentication and session management.
  • Free and paid membership access.
  • Course enrolment and learning sessions.
  • Shopping baskets, checkout and subscription payments.
  • Community features and member preferences.
  • Website security and fraud prevention.
  • Remembering cookie consent choices.
  • Video playback and webinar functionality.
  • Website performance measurement and analytics.
  • Advertising measurement and marketing, where enabled.

Not every category described below will necessarily be active at all times. The cookies actually used depend on the functionality and third-party services implemented on the website.

6. Categories of Cookies

6.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies enable essential services that you request and functions required for the website to operate.

They may be used for:

  • Authenticating registered members.
  • Maintaining secure login sessions.
  • Remembering shopping basket contents.
  • Completing payment and checkout processes.
  • Preventing fraudulent or unauthorised access.
  • Maintaining website security.
  • Remembering your cookie consent or rejection choices.
  • Providing access to purchased courses and memberships.

These cookies do not require consent where they meet the applicable legal exemption for strictly necessary technologies.

We will not classify a cookie as strictly necessary merely because it is useful to our business.

6.2 Functional and Preference Cookies

Functional cookies may remember optional preferences such as language, display settings, interface customisation or other choices.

Some preference technologies may be strictly necessary to provide a feature you have specifically requested. Others require consent.

Where consent is required, optional functional cookies will not be activated until you have agreed to them.

6.3 Analytics and Performance Cookies

Analytics technologies help us understand how visitors interact with Partners Academy and identify opportunities to improve website performance and usability.

Depending on the analytics tools implemented, these technologies may collect information about:

  • Pages visited.
  • Time spent on pages.
  • Navigation patterns.
  • Device and browser characteristics.
  • Website errors and performance.
  • Traffic sources and campaign effectiveness.

We will obtain consent for analytics cookies where required by law. Where a specific analytics technology qualifies for an applicable statutory exemption, we will comply with the conditions of that exemption, including any required information and opt-out arrangements.

6.4 Marketing and Advertising Cookies

If enabled, marketing cookies may be used to measure advertising campaigns, understand the effectiveness of promotional activity or support relevant advertising.

These technologies may be provided by advertising networks, social media services or other marketing partners.

Marketing cookies will not be placed or accessed before you provide valid consent where required by law.

Refusing marketing cookies will not prevent you from accessing the essential features of Partners Academy.

6.5 Third-Party Media Cookies

Partners Academy may provide video lessons, webinars, recordings or other media through embedded players or third-party technology providers.

Some embedded media services may use cookies or similar technologies to provide playback, measure usage or support other functionality.

Where non-essential cookies are involved, we will implement appropriate consent controls before those technologies are activated.

Where practical, embedded media may be replaced by a placeholder until the required consent has been given.

7. Cookies Used for Member Accounts and Courses

Partners Academy may use WordPress, BuddyBoss, learning management software and other integrated technologies to provide member accounts and educational services.

These systems may use cookies to:

  • Maintain authenticated sessions.
  • Recognise membership permissions.
  • Maintain secure access to purchased content.
  • Support course navigation and learning sessions.
  • Remember certain interface preferences.
  • Protect account forms against abuse.

Essential authentication and security cookies may be used without consent where permitted by law.

Optional tracking or analytics technologies associated with these systems will be assessed separately and will not automatically be treated as essential.

8. Payment and Subscription Cookies

Where you purchase a course, membership, webinar or other service, our website and payment providers may use cookies or similar technologies to support secure checkout and payment processing.

These may include technologies necessary to maintain your checkout session, prevent fraud, authenticate payments or remember shopping basket information.

Payment providers may also operate their own cookies and privacy practices.

We will identify relevant providers and cookies in our cookie register once the payment systems have been confirmed and assessed.

9. Community and Networking Cookies

Partners Academy may provide professional networking features including community groups, member directories, discussions, profiles and private messaging.

Cookies may support essential community functionality, login sessions, account preferences and security.

Where optional personalisation, analytics or other tracking features are introduced, we will apply the relevant consent requirements.

Cookies do not automatically make your private messages public or permit unrelated access to confidential account information.

Further information about how community data is processed is available in our Privacy Policy.

10. First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set by Partners Academy or through services operating under our website domain.

Third-party cookies are set or accessed by other organisations, such as payment processors, embedded media providers or advertising services.

Some third-party providers may process information for their own purposes, subject to their privacy notices and applicable law.

We will assess the relevant providers and explain their use in our cookie register or associated privacy information.

11. Session and Persistent Cookies

Session cookies generally expire when your browser session ends.

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until deleted.

The duration of each cookie depends on its purpose and configuration.

We will publish actual cookie durations in our cookie register after verifying the technologies in use.

12. Our Cookie Register

We maintain or will publish a register identifying the cookies and similar technologies actually used by Partners Academy.

The register will identify, where applicable:

  • Cookie or technology name.
  • Provider.
  • Purpose.
  • Category.
  • Whether it is first-party or third-party.
  • Duration or expiry.
  • Whether consent is required.

The register should be updated when website plugins, embedded services or tracking technologies change.

13. Your Cookie Choices

When you first visit Partners Academy, you will be provided with cookie information and appropriate choices for non-essential cookies.

Where consent is required, you will be able to:

  • Accept optional cookies.
  • Reject optional cookies.
  • Choose individual cookie categories.
  • Change or withdraw your consent later.

Accepting optional cookies is voluntary.

We will not treat continued browsing, inactivity or pre-ticked options as valid consent.

Rejecting optional cookies will not prevent access to essential website services, although some optional features may be unavailable.

14. Changing or Withdrawing Consent

You can change your cookie preferences or withdraw consent at any time using the cookie settings control provided on our website.

Cookie Preferences: [INSERT WORKING COOKIE SETTINGS BUTTON OR LINK]

Withdrawing consent will prevent further non-essential cookie use covered by that consent, subject to the technical implementation and applicable law.

Where appropriate, our consent management system will also delete or expire cookies that it can control.

Some cookies may need to be removed through your browser settings or the relevant third-party service.

15. Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

Most web browsers allow you to inspect, block or delete cookies through their privacy and security settings.

You can find instructions from your browser provider:

Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent login, checkout, membership access or other essential features from working correctly.

16. Cookies and Personal Data

Some cookies and similar technologies may involve the processing of personal data, including online identifiers, IP addresses and information about website activity.

Where personal data is processed, we comply with applicable data protection legislation.

Our Privacy Policy provides further information about our lawful bases, data recipients, international transfers, retention periods and your rights.

You can read our Privacy Policy at Privacy Policy.

17. International Service Providers

Some third-party technology providers may operate from, or process information in, countries outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal data is transferred internationally, we will use appropriate lawful transfer mechanisms and safeguards where required.

Further details are provided in our Privacy Policy.

18. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when our website functionality changes, new technologies are introduced, service providers change or legal requirements are updated.

The latest version will be published on this page with a revised update date.

Where necessary, we will request fresh consent before using cookies for new purposes that require it.
