Cookie Policy

Last updated: 12 July 2026

This policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use on neurounity.org.uk, why we use them, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our privacy policy.

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit it. They let the site remember things, such as whether you are logged in or which choices you have made. Similar technologies, such as pixels, local storage and embedded scripts, do a similar job, and where we talk about cookies in this policy we mean those too.

2. Your Choice

Strictly necessary cookies are set automatically, because the website cannot work properly without them. For everything else, including analytics and any embedded content that sets cookies, we ask for your consent first, and you can change your mind at any time.

We use a cookie consent banner on our website. It appears when you first visit, it lets you accept or reject non essential cookies, and it remembers your choice so that we are not asking you the same question on every page.

3. The Cookies We Use

Our website runs on WordPress using the Divi theme and uses standard cookies. The table below sets out what they are and what they do. Names and durations can vary slightly depending on your browser and on whether you are logged in.

What it does

wordpress_test_cookie

Cookie consent cookie

Strictly necessary

Remembers your cookie choices so we do not ask you again on every page. Set once you respond to our cookie banner.

_ga and _ga_[id]

Analytics

Google Analytics, where you have consented to it. Tells us how many people visit the site and which pages they use, so we can improve it. Typically lasts up to two years.

Knowledge Hub login cookies

Strictly necessary

Set by the member login platform used by our Knowledge Hub, to keep you signed in while you are using it.

Embedded content cookies

Third party

Where a page contains embedded content such as a video, that provider may set its own cookies when you interact with it.

 

4. Cookies We Do Not Use

We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles, and we do not sell your data. If that ever changes, we will update this policy and ask for your consent first.

5. Third Party Cookies

Some cookies are set by other organisations rather than by us, for example when content from another website is embedded in one of our pages, or when you follow a link to a partner. We do not control those cookies, and we recommend reading the privacy and cookie policies of the organisations concerned.

6. How To Manage Cookies

You can change your cookie choices at any time using the cookie settings control on our website at neurounity.org.uk. Your new choice takes effect straight away.

You can also control cookies through your browser. Most browsers let you see what cookies are stored, delete them, and block them, either altogether or from particular sites. The help section of your browser will explain how. Please bear in mind that if you block all cookies, some parts of our site, including member login, may stop working properly.

7. Changes To This Policy

We will update this policy when the cookies on our site change, or when the rules change. The date at the top shows when it was last updated.
