Cookie policy

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on a device when a website is visited. Similar technologies may store information in a browser or allow a website to recognise a device or session.

How this website uses cookies

The website code does not currently set analytics, advertising, profiling, social-media tracking or personalisation cookies. We do not use cookies to monitor visitors across other websites or to build marketing profiles.

The website's hosting and security infrastructure may use strictly necessary cookies or similar technologies to deliver the pages requested, balance network traffic, maintain security and prevent misuse. These technologies are used only where necessary for the service to function safely and reliably.

Cookie consent

Consent is not required for a cookie or similar technology that is strictly necessary to provide a service requested by the visitor. As this website does not currently use non-essential cookies, it does not display a cookie-consent banner.

If non-essential cookies are introduced in future, this policy will be updated and visitors will be asked for consent before those cookies are used.

Forms and third-party websites

Website forms are processed using Formspree. The website also contains links to publications, news reports and other external websites. A third party may use cookies under its own policy when a visitor submits information to it or follows a link to its website. Cookies placed on an external website are controlled by that third party, not by the Forum.

Managing cookies

Most browsers allow users to view, delete or block cookies through their privacy or security settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect whether a website works correctly.

Further information about cookie rules is available from the Information Commissioner's Office.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy if the website or the technologies it uses change. For questions about this policy, email info@employmentstatusforum.org.uk.
