Cookie Policy.

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy applies to the website at cpcoghyp.com, operated by Catherine Powell Cognitive Hypnotherapy. Cookies and similar technologies may be used by the website and its technical providers. This policy describes the choices available on the replacement website.

2. What are cookies and related technologies?

Cookies are small files that a website or third-party service can store in a browser. They can help the website function, remember settings or measure usage. Scripts are pieces of code used to make a website work and respond to visitors. Technologies such as pixels, browser storage and web beacons can also be used for similar purposes.

This website remembers your optional-cookie preferences using the browser’s local storage. That preference record is used solely to honour your choices and is reviewed after 180 days.

3. Cookie categories and settings

The preference panel uses the same six category labels as the previous WordPress website. Necessary technologies are always enabled; the remaining categories are initially disabled and require your choice.

• Necessary: technologies needed for site operation, security and remembering consent preferences.
• Functional: optional features such as playing externally hosted YouTube videos.
• Performance: optional performance-measurement tools, if introduced; none is configured in the supplied redesign.
• Analytics: optional visitor statistics, if introduced; no Google Analytics tag is configured in the supplied redesign.
• Advertisement: optional advertising or marketing tracking, if introduced; none is configured in the supplied redesign.
• Others: additional services only if identified and categorised; none is currently configured.

You may give or withdraw permission using the Cookie settings control.

4. Technologies and third-party services

Hosting and security: Hostinger provides the website hosting environment. The domain currently uses Cloudflare nameservers; hosting or network security services may process technical information or set essential security cookies.

YouTube: three films are available through locally hosted thumbnail images. The embedded YouTube player is not loaded until you allow the Functional category, including if you choose “Allow videos and play” on a film. YouTube may then process device information or set cookies under its own policies.

Google Fonts: the website requests web fonts from Google. This makes a connection to Google's font delivery service, but it is not an analytics or advertising tag.

Google Sheets: the replacement enquiry form is designed to send messages to a Google Sheet through a server-side handler after integration setup. This is a form-data processing activity, not a visitor-tracking cookie. More information appears in the Privacy Policy.

Stripe and Google Analytics: the previous 2022 Cookie Policy named both providers. The current supplied replacement pages do not include a Stripe checkout or a Google Analytics tag. If these services are introduced, their cookie details, purposes and consent controls must be reviewed first.

5. Consent and changing your choices

On your first visit, the site displays a cookie-consent panel. You can accept all optional categories, reject optional categories or customise each option. Optional services are not activated merely because you visit the website.

You can change your decision at any time using the Cookie settings link in the footer. If you withdraw Functional consent while a YouTube player is open, the website removes the embedded player.

Accepting an option that is not currently used does not install additional tracking services. Any new analytics, marketing or performance service must be connected to its corresponding consent setting before deployment.

6. Your privacy rights

Depending on applicable law and the circumstances, you may have rights to access personal data, request correction or erasure, limit certain processing, object, request portability and withdraw consent where applicable. You may also complain to a relevant supervisory authority, including the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.

7. Managing cookies in your browser

You can view, delete or restrict cookies and local storage using your browser controls. For guidance see Chrome, Firefox and Safari. Blocking essential technical storage may affect operation of some features.

8. Contact and policy changes

For questions about this policy, you can contact Catherine Powell Cognitive Hypnotherapy at [email protected] or through the contact page.

This policy may be updated if the site adds, changes or removes third-party technology. The previous Cookie Policy dated January 2022 described a different WordPress configuration and should not be treated as an inventory of the replacement website.
