1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on a device when a website is visited. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, tags, and scripts that help a website remember choices, measure visits, protect forms, or support embedded features.
2. How Quietorchardco uses cookies
Quietorchardco uses cookies to operate the website, remember cookie preferences, support enquiry forms, understand page performance, protect against abuse, and improve information about dance classes, studio hire, and coaching services. We do not use cookies to sell personal data.
3. Essential cookies
Essential cookies are required for core website functions such as security, form operation, consent storage, navigation, and basic technical stability. These cookies cannot normally be switched off through our consent banner because the website needs them to operate correctly.
4. Functional cookies
Functional cookies may remember choices such as cookie settings or interface preferences. If disabled, some convenience features may not behave as expected, but the main website content should remain available.
5. Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand which pages are visited, how users move through the website, and where technical problems occur. Analytics data is used in aggregated or limited form to improve the website and class information. Where required, analytics cookies are used only after consent.
6. Marketing cookies
Marketing cookies may be used only where relevant and legally permitted, for example to measure campaign performance or avoid showing repeated promotional messages. These cookies are optional and depend on consent where required by UK privacy rules.
7. Third-party technologies
Some pages may use third-party services such as maps, embedded booking tools, analytics providers, spam protection, email platforms, or social links. These providers may set their own cookies or process technical data according to their own policies. We aim to keep third-party use proportionate to the practical needs of a dance studio website.
8. Managing cookie choices
You can accept all cookies or choose essential-only operation through the banner where available. You can also clear cookies in your browser, block cookies, or use browser privacy settings. Blocking all cookies may affect form operation, consent memory, maps, or other website features.
9. Consent records
Where the website records a cookie preference, it may store the selected choice and timestamp so the banner does not need to appear on every visit. You can change your choice by clearing browser storage or contacting us if you need help.
10. Updates to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when the website, booking tools, analytics configuration, or legal requirements change. The latest version will be published on this page.
