1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files that a website can store on a user's device. They can support functions such as maintaining a secure session, remembering preferences, authenticating a user and understanding how a website is used.
Similar technologies may perform related functions. References to cookies in this policy should therefore be read as including comparable browser or device technologies where appropriate.
2. How Glutathione Training uses cookies
Glutathione Training may use cookies and similar technologies where they are necessary to provide and secure the website and learning platform.
Other technologies, such as optional analytics or marketing tools, will be distinguished from essential technologies and handled according to applicable consent requirements.
3. Strictly necessary cookies
Strictly necessary cookies support functions without which the website or platform may not operate correctly. These can include:
- maintaining a secure browser session;
- supporting account authentication;
- protecting forms against cross-site request forgery and related attacks;
- maintaining security and platform integrity;
- supporting essential account and learning-platform functionality;
- remembering choices required to provide a service requested by the user.
Because these technologies are required to provide or secure a service requested by the user, they may not require the same consent mechanism as optional cookies, subject to applicable law.
4. Authentication and session cookies
Registered users may require session and authentication cookies to remain securely signed in and to move between authorised areas of the platform.
Blocking these cookies may prevent login, assessment, account, support or other secure platform functions from operating correctly.
5. Security technologies
We may use security technologies designed to distinguish legitimate users from automated abuse, protect public forms and reduce spam or malicious traffic.
For example, public-facing forms may use Cloudflare Turnstile or comparable anti-abuse technology. Such services may process technical information necessary to determine whether an interaction appears legitimate.
6. Functional cookies
Functional technologies may be used to remember settings or choices that improve the operation of the service without being essential to its basic operation.
Where applicable law requires consent for a particular functional technology, it should not be activated until the appropriate choice has been made.
7. Analytics
Analytics technologies may in future be used to understand matters such as page usage, technical performance, navigation patterns and the effectiveness of public educational content.
Where analytics are not strictly necessary and applicable law requires consent, they will be subject to the appropriate consent mechanism before activation.
8. Marketing and advertising technologies
Glutathione Training does not treat acceptance of essential website functionality as consent to optional advertising or marketing tracking.
If marketing, advertising or cross-site tracking technologies are introduced in the future, they will be assessed separately and appropriate information and consent controls will be provided where required.
9. Third-party content
Some pages may link to or, where appropriate, embed content from third-party services. External providers can operate their own cookies or similar technologies when a user interacts with their services.
Examples could include video platforms, payment services, scientific resources or other external functionality.
Independent third parties are responsible for their own privacy and cookie practices.
10. External links
A normal link to another website does not mean that Glutathione Training controls the cookies used after a user leaves our website.
Users should review the privacy and cookie information provided by the relevant external website where appropriate.
11. Managing cookie choices
Where the website provides a cookie-preference control, users can use that facility to manage optional cookie categories.
Browser settings can also be used to delete or block cookies. However, blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent secure account and learning functions from operating.
12. Consent
Where consent is legally required for a non-essential technology, consent should be obtained before that technology is activated.
Users should also be able to withdraw or modify such consent as easily as reasonably practicable through the relevant preference mechanism.
13. Cookie duration
Cookies can be either session cookies, which ordinarily expire when the relevant browser session ends, or persistent cookies, which remain for a defined period unless removed earlier.
The duration used should be proportionate to the purpose of the relevant cookie.
14. Personal data
Information associated with cookies may constitute personal data in some circumstances. Where it does, it will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and Data Protection & GDPR information.
15. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when technologies used by the website change or where legal or regulatory requirements develop.
Material changes will be reflected on this page and, where appropriate, in the site's cookie-preference controls.
