Cookie Policy
Last updated: 21 September 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how What’s Changing UK may use cookies and similar technologies on its website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files or similar technologies that can store or access information on your device when you visit a website. They can be used for essential functions, to remember preferences, understand how a website is used, or support other services.
Types of cookies
Strictly necessary technologies
Some cookies or similar technologies may be strictly necessary to provide a website service you have requested, maintain security, or support essential functions. Technologies in this category do not generally require consent where a legal exemption applies, although information about them should still be provided.
Analytics and performance technologies
Analytics technologies may be used to understand how visitors use a website and to help improve its content and performance. Non-essential analytics technologies normally require consent before they are placed or accessed where the applicable UK rules require this.
Advertising, marketing and third-party technologies
If the website later uses advertising, marketing, affiliate or other third-party technologies that store or access information on a visitor’s device, the relevant technology will be subject to the applicable UK requirements. We do not list specific services, cookie names or retention periods here where their use has not been verified.
Consent
Where consent is required for a non-essential cookie or similar technology, consent should be given by a clear positive action. Simply continuing to browse the website does not, by itself, amount to consent.
Where a consent mechanism is provided, it should allow you to accept or reject non-essential technologies and, where appropriate, change your preferences later.
Managing cookies in your browser
You can usually control or delete cookies through your browser settings. You can block cookies, allow them, delete them or configure your browser to restrict third-party cookies. Blocking or deleting cookies can affect how some websites operate.
The Information Commissioner’s Office provides general information about cookies and consent at ico.org.uk.

Changes to this policy
The technologies used by websites can change. We may update this Cookie Policy when the website changes or when legal or regulatory guidance is updated. The latest version and its date are shown on this page.
