Legal information
Cookie Policy
This policy explains how fretwork-guitar.co.uk uses cookies and similar technologies, what each type is used for, and how you can control them. It applies to all visitors to the site.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They let the site remember information between pages or between visits.
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function. They support core features such as submitting the lesson enquiry form securely and keeping the site stable during your visit.
Enquiry form submission
Keeps your answers together while you complete the lesson enquiry form, so the message reaches the studio as one submission.
Visit stability
Remembers the state of your session while you move between pages, so reading a policy or a lesson page does not interrupt what you were doing.
What you cannot switch off
Because they are essential, these cookies cannot be turned off through the site's own controls. You can block them in your browser, but parts of the site may then stop working.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small file stored by your browser when you visit a site. It can hold a session identifier, a preference, or a record that you have already seen a particular notice.
Cookies do not run programs or deliver viruses to your device. They are read by the site that set them, or by services that site uses. Nothing in a cookie is able to look at other files on your computer or read your email.
On this site, cookies do three jobs: keeping the lesson enquiry form working, showing which pages students actually read, and remembering display choices so a returning visit looks the same. Each is covered below.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the site, such as which pages are viewed and where visitors arrive from. The information is aggregated and used to improve the site's structure and content.
We do not use analytics data to identify individual visitors, and it is not combined with the personal details you submit through the enquiry form. A page view count tells us a lesson format is being read; it does not tell us who read it.
How the data is treated
- Reported as totals and averages, not as a list of named people.
- Kept separate from the contact details you send us about lessons.
- Used to decide which lesson pages need clearer wording or better examples.
Functional cookies
Functional cookies remember choices you have made, such as display preferences. They are used to make the site behave consistently between visits, so you are not asked the same question every time you open a page.
Disabling these cookies may mean you need to reselect preferences each time you return, and some parts of the page may look different from the way you left them.
Third-party cookies
Some features may rely on services operated by other companies, which can set their own cookies. These are governed by the privacy policies of those providers rather than this one.
Where third-party cookies are used here, they are limited to services that support the site's operation, such as hosting or analytics. We do not sell advertising space through them.
You can view, block and delete cookies from your own browser at any time.
All major browsers let you manage cookies through their settings. The help section of your browser explains the exact steps for that browser, including how to set a warning before a cookie is accepted.
Blocking all cookies will affect this site and most others you visit. The lesson enquiry form may stop sending, and pages you had already visited may not remember what you selected.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy if the cookies used on the site change. The current version is the one published on this page, and it applies from the moment it appears here.
If a new cookie is added later, the section that describes it will be updated in the same place, so you do not have to hunt through a separate document.
Questions about cookies
If you have questions about how cookies are used here, contact us using the details on the Contact page. Write from the email you used for your enquiry so we can look it up quickly.
