Cookie Policy
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They let the site remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them whenever you return or move between pages. At News GB we use cookies and similar technologies to keep news-gb.co.uk working properly and to understand how readers use the site.
How We Use Cookies
The cookies on our site fall into a few broad categories:
- Essential — needed for the website to function, such as page navigation, security and remembering your cookie choices.
- Performance and analytics — help us see which pages are popular and how visitors move around, so we can improve what we offer.
- Functional — remember settings such as your region or preferred display options to give you a smoother experience.
- Third-party — set by external services we rely on, for example embedded video, social sharing or advertising partners.
Managing Your Cookies
You stay in control. Most web browsers let you view, block or delete cookies through their settings menu, and you can choose to be warned before a cookie is stored. Please bear in mind that disabling certain cookies may affect how parts of News GB behave and could limit some features. Where required, we will also ask for your consent through an on-site banner before placing non-essential cookies.
Updates to This Policy
We may revise this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, our practices or the law. Our use of cookies and your related rights are handled in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised date, and we encourage you to check back periodically. For more on how we process personal data, see our Privacy Policy.
