Cookie Policy

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small files stored on your device. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work in a similar way. In this policy, “cookies” covers both.

2. Strictly necessary cookies

These are needed for the website to work securely, so they do not require consent.

Where we enable Cloudflare Turnstile on our forms to prevent spam and abuse, it checks browser signals when you use the form. This is used only for security.

3. Analytics cookies (optional)

If you accept analytics, we load Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights, which measure page views and performance without advertising cookies. We also store the page you first arrived on and any campaign link you followed in your browser's local storage, so we can understand which guides help students. Nothing is loaded until you choose to accept.

4. Functional cookies

If you choose to open our Calendly scheduler to book a consultation, Calendly loads on the page and may set its own cookies so that booking works. It does not load until you choose to open it.

5. Marketing cookies

We do not use marketing or advertising cookies, and we do not track you across other websites for advertising.

6. Third-party services

Third parties only set cookies through our website for the analytics services listed above, when enabled and only with your consent, and for Calendly, only when you open the scheduler. Once you follow a link to another website, such as WhatsApp, a university or GOV.UK, that website's own cookie policy applies.

7. Changing your choice

You can change your choice at any time. Choosing necessary cookies only stops analytics and optional monitoring from running.

Cookie settings

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although parts of the website, such as signing in, may then not work.

8. Changes to this policy

We update this policy when we add or change technologies. The version and last-updated date are shown at the top of this page.
