Cookies Policy
1. What this page covers
This policy explains how Challenger Media (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on challengermedia.co.uk (the “Site”). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more generally.
2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They help the Site work, remember your preferences, and give us information about how the Site is used. Similar technologies, such as pixels and local storage, work in much the same way, and we refer to all of them as “cookies” in this policy.
3. The types of cookies we use
| Category | What it does | Consent needed? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Keeps the Site secure and working, and remembers your cookie choices | No |
| Analytics | Shows us how visitors use the Site so we can improve it | Yes |
| Marketing | Helps us measure advertising and show relevant ads | Yes |
We only set analytics and marketing cookies if you agree to them. Strictly necessary cookies are always on.
4. Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by third parties whose services we use, such as analytics or advertising providers (currently Google Analytics). These providers may collect information about your use of the Site and other websites. We do not control their cookies, so please check their own privacy and cookie policies for details.
5. How to manage your cookie choices
You can change your mind at any time:
- Our cookie banner: use the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page to review or withdraw your consent.
- Your browser: most browsers let you block or delete cookies in its settings.
- Opt-out tools: use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on and Your Online Choices.
If you block all cookies, including strictly necessary ones, some parts of the Site may not work.
6. Legal basis
Under PECR and UK GDPR, we ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. Strictly necessary cookies do not need consent.
