Cookie Policy

Effective Date: 5 October 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how GP Practice Resources ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and digital services (the "Services"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function, recognise returning visitors, and provide aggregated information about usage. We also use similar technologies such as local storage and pixels, which operate in comparable ways.

2. Cookies We Use

We group cookies into the following categories:

• Strictly necessary cookies: Required for core functionality such as security, load balancing, session management, and your cookie preferences. These cannot be switched off in our systems.
• Performance and analytics cookies: Help us understand how visitors interact with the Services (e.g., page views, download counts, navigation paths) so we can improve content quality and user experience. Data is aggregated and not used to identify individuals. These cookies load only when you provide consent.
• Functional cookies: Remember your choices, such as preferred layout, saved filters, or whether you have seen feature announcements. Declining these may limit some personalised features.

We do not use cookies for behavioural advertising or social media tracking.

3. Managing Your Preferences

When you first visit the Services, we present a consent banner that allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can revise your selection at any time by accessing the "Cookie preferences" link in the site footer or through your browser controls.

4. Browser Controls

Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings, including deleting existing cookies or blocking future ones. Instructions are available via:

• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
• Microsoft Edge
• Safari

Blocking some cookies may impact functionality. Strictly necessary cookies will continue to operate to ensure the Services remain secure and available.

5. Third-Party Services

We may rely on privacy-focused analytics or infrastructure partners that set cookies when delivering the Services. These providers act under our instructions and cannot use data for their own purposes.

6. Changes to This Policy

We review this Cookie Policy regularly to reflect updates in technology or applicable law. The "Effective date" above shows the latest revision. Significant changes will be highlighted in the consent banner or via site notifications.
