Cookie Policy (UK)

This Cookie Policy applies to citizens and legal permanent residents of the United Kingdom.

1. Introduction

Our website, joelvis.co.uk (hereinafter: "the website") uses a small number of cookies and related technologies. This site does not run any advertising or social-media tracking scripts — the list below is genuinely everything currently in use, not a generic template.

2. What are cookies?

A cookie is a small simple file that is sent along with pages of this website and stored by your browser on the hard drive of your computer or another device. The information stored therein may be returned to our servers during a subsequent visit.

3. Categories of cookies

Strictly necessary
These cookies are required for the website to function properly (for example, remembering your cookie preferences) and don't require your consent.

Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand which pages are useful to visitors. This category is off by default — it only runs if you choose to accept it in the cookie banner.

4. Cookies in use on this site

CookieConsent Strictly necessary

Remembers the choice you make in the cookie banner below, so you're not asked again on every visit.

Google Fonts Strictly necessary

Used to load the typefaces used on this site (Frank Ruhl Libre, Archivo). Loading a font from Google's servers means your browser makes a request to Google, which can see your IP address as part of that request. Google Fonts does not set a tracking cookie.

Netlify (hosting) Strictly necessary

This site is hosted on Netlify. Netlify may use a small number of essential cookies for infrastructure purposes such as load balancing and security — these are required for the site to function and aren't used for tracking.

Google Analytics Analytics (optional)

We use Google Analytics to understand which pages visitors find useful, so we can improve the site. This only runs if you accept the “Analytics” category below — nothing from Google Analytics loads until you do. Data is anonymised (IP addresses are truncated).

5. Consent

When you visit our website for the first time, you'll see a cookie banner. You can accept all cookies, allow only strictly necessary ones, or manage your preferences in detail. You can change your choice at any time using the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer of any page.

6. Enabling/disabling and deleting cookies

You can use your internet browser to automatically or manually delete cookies, and to block cookies being placed at all. Please note that our website may not work properly if strictly necessary cookies are disabled.

7. Your rights with respect to personal data

You have the right to know why your personal data is needed, what will happen to it, and how long it will be retained for.
Right of access: you have the right to access your personal data that is known to us.
Right to rectification: you have the right to supplement, correct, have deleted or blocked your personal data whenever you wish.
Right to object: you may object to the processing of your data. We comply with this, unless there are justified grounds for processing.

To exercise these rights, please contact us using the details below. If you have a complaint about how we handle your data, we would like to hear from you, but you also have the right to submit a complaint to the supervisory authority (the Information Commissioner's Office — ICO).
