1. About This Policy

This policy explains how TTT uses cookies and similar technologies on www.theteachertrainer.co.uk and related web properties, and how you can control them. It complements TTT's Privacy Notice and Data Protection and GDPR Policy and reflects TTT's obligations under the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR).

2. What Cookies Are

A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. Cookies help websites remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, language or whether you are signed in. Similar technologies, including local storage, pixels and tags, work in comparable ways and are covered by this policy.

5. Your Consent and How to Change It

When you first visit our site, you see a cookie banner that asks for your choice. Strictly necessary cookies are set automatically because they are required to make the site work. All other cookies are set only if you accept them, either as a whole or by category. You can change your choice at any time using the shield button in the bottom-left corner of every page or the 'Change my cookie settings' button at the top of this policy (the 'Cookies' link in the footer of every page brings you here). The banner is shown in your browser's language where we have a translation (English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish and Romanian), and you can switch language on the banner itself.

We keep your choice for 6 months. After that, the banner asks you again. We also ask again if we add a new type of cookie.

If you withdraw consent for a category, we stop the cookies in that category from loading, delete the cookies and similar stored data that category placed on our own domain and reload the page so they stop running. Cookies that a third party stores on its own domain can only be removed in your browser settings or through that provider (see sections 6 and 7).

6. Controls in Your Browser

You can also manage cookies directly in your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

Block or delete cookies already set on your device
Refuse all cookies or only those from third parties
Receive a warning before a cookie is stored

Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site from working correctly.

7. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies are placed by third parties TTT engages with (for example an analytics provider or an embedded video player). These third parties are Controllers for their own cookies and their own privacy notices apply to the data they collect. TTT chooses third parties that support privacy-respecting configuration s where available.

8. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Where your browser sends a Global Privacy Control or equivalent signal, TTT respects it as a valid objection to non-essential cookies. Where a 'Do Not Track' signal is received, TTT treats it the same way.

9. Children

TTT's services are aimed at adult learners aged 19 and over. The website is not targeted at children. Where our site is accessed by a minor, the standard cookie consent mechanism applies and extra care is given to limit non-essential cookies.

10. Data Protection and Your Rights

Where cookie data is personal data, it is processed under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, as described in the Privacy Notice and the Data Protection and GDPR Policy. You have the rights set out in those documents and may contact the Data Protection Lead at phenil@theteachertrainer.co.uk. You may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.

11. Changes to This Policy

We review this policy at least annually and earlier where cookie use on the site changes. The current version is always published on the TTT website.
