Cookie Policy
Last updated: 8 June 2026
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies and similar technologies are small files or tools used to support website functionality, remember preferences, improve security and, where permitted, measure website usage or support marketing.
2. How EduPension Uses Cookies
EduPension currently uses strictly necessary cookies only. The one cookie set today records your cookie choice so you are not asked again on every visit.
No analytics, functionality or preference, marketing or advertising cookies are in use at present. The categories below are listed so you can set your preferences in advance, and so this policy is ready if any are introduced.
- strictly necessary cookies (in use)
- analytics cookies (not in use)
- functionality or preference cookies (not in use)
- marketing or advertising cookies (not in use)
Non-essential cookies will only be used where you have given consent, where consent is required.
3. Cookie Categories
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These are always active. They are needed for core website operation, security, session continuity, consent management and basic functionality. This is the only category currently in use: a single cookie recording your cookie choice.
Analytics Cookies
EduPension does not currently use analytics cookies, and no analytics or tracking service is loaded by the website. If analytics cookies are introduced, they will help us understand website usage and improve EduPension. Where analytics are used, EduPension aims to minimise the collection of personal data and use aggregated or anonymised analytics wherever possible. Analytics cookies, where consent is required, will only be used after the appropriate consent has been obtained.
Functionality / Preference Cookies
EduPension does not currently set any functionality or preference cookies. If introduced, these would help remember settings, preferences or interface choices.
Marketing / Advertising Cookies
EduPension does not currently use marketing or advertising cookies. EduPension does not currently use advertising pixels, retargeting technologies or third-party advertising tracking tools. If marketing or advertising cookies are introduced in future, this Cookie Policy, cookie table and consent mechanism will be updated accordingly.
4. Cookie Consent and Preference Management
Where required by law, EduPension will request consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. Users are able to:
- accept all cookies
- reject non-essential cookies
- manage cookie preferences through Cookie Settings
Cookie preferences may be changed at any time through the Cookie Settings functionality provided on the website.
5. Your Choices
You can accept or reject non-essential cookies and can change your preferences at any time using the website's Cookie Settings functionality. Rejecting non-essential cookies will not prevent you from using the core website. You may also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect some website functionality.
6. Consent Records
Where consent is required, EduPension will request it before placing non-essential cookies. Consent choices will be recorded for compliance purposes. EduPension may retain records of cookie consent decisions to demonstrate compliance with applicable data protection and ePrivacy requirements.
7. Third-Party Services
Some trusted service providers used to operate EduPension may use cookies or similar technologies in connection with their services, such as hosting, security, analytics, consent management and anti-abuse tools. Where third-party cookies or similar technologies are used, they will be managed in accordance with applicable law and, where required, subject to consent.
8. Specific Cookies in Use
| Cookie Name | Provider | Purpose | Category | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Session and security cookies | EduPension platform infrastructure | Session management, security and core website operation | Strictly Necessary | Session or short-term persistent |
| cookie_consent | EduPension | Records that a consent choice has been made to prevent the banner re-appearing | Strictly Necessary | 3 years |
Note: This table will be updated as additional cookies are introduced or confirmed. Non-essential cookies will not be placed until the cookie table, consent mechanism and related controls are live and verified.
9. Future Analytics, Marketing and Advertising Technologies
EduPension may introduce analytics technologies, advertising technologies or marketing-related cookies in future. If this occurs, the cookie table will be updated, the Cookie Policy will be updated, consent mechanisms will be updated where required, and users will be given appropriate choices before non-essential technologies are used.
