This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies may be used when you visit scottbennett.uk.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by a website. Similar technologies can also store or read information in your browser. Some are necessary for a website to work; others help its owner understand how it is used.

Cookies used on this website

Essential and security cookies

WordPress, the hosting and caching systems, and security tools may use cookies or similar identifiers that are necessary to provide the site, protect it from misuse, remember technical preferences and support administrator sessions. These are not used for advertising and generally cannot be switched off through a consent control because the site may not function securely without them.

Analytics cookies

Google Analytics is connected through Google Site Kit and uses the Google tag GT-WVXMQCV. When active, Google may set cookies such as _ga and _ga_* to distinguish visits and measure how people use the site. These identifiers can remain for up to two years, although their lifetime may be refreshed or changed by Google or by the site configuration.

Website analytics supplied through WPMU DEV may also process technical or usage information to produce aggregate reports. Analytics information is used to understand site performance and improve content, not to build advertising profiles.

Your choices

Where consent is required, analytics cookies should only be used after you choose to allow them. You may withdraw consent using the site’s cookie control when available. You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect how the website works.

Google provides information about its use of data and browser controls at policies.google.com/technologies/cookies. Browser help pages explain how to manage cookies for the browser you use.

Third-party websites

Links to external websites, including social platforms, are governed by those sites’ own privacy and cookie practices once you follow the link.

Changes and contact

This policy may be updated if the website’s tools or legal requirements change. For questions, email hello@scottbennett.uk.
