Cookie Policy

Introduction

Technology Books for Children is a registered charity. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we use cookies on our website.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your preferences. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet or mobile device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly and provide information to website owners about how their site is being used.

How we use cookies

We use cookies for limited and proportionate purposes:

• To ensure the website functions correctly
• To collect technical and usage information that helps us understand how our website is used and how it can be improved

We do not use cookies for advertising or behavioural marketing directly. However, some third-party affiliate partners, including Amazon, may use cookies for tracking and attribution purposes when you click on affiliate links.

Affiliate links and third-party cookies

Some pages on our website contain affiliate links to third-party websites. If you click on one of these links, the third-party site may place cookies on your device in accordance with their own cookie and privacy policies. We do not control these cookies and they are not set by Technology Books for Children. We encourage visitors to review the cookie policies of any third-party websites they choose to visit.

We participate in the Amazon Associates affiliate programme. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. If you click on an Amazon affiliate link on our website, Amazon may place cookies on your device to track your visit and any purchases you make. These cookies are used to attribute commission to us and are governed by Amazon’s own Cookie Policy and Privacy Notice. Technology Books for Children does not control these cookies.

Types of cookies we use

Essential cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to operate properly. They enable core functionality such as page navigation and security. These cookies are always active and do not require consent.

Analytics cookies

We use Google Analytics to collect technical information about how visitors use our website. This may include information such as pages visited, time spent on the site, browser type, and general location data.

This information helps us understand website usage patterns and improve our content and services. Analytics cookies are only used if you choose to accept them through our cookie banner.

Further details about how we handle this data are provided in our Privacy Policy.

Google Analytics may process information on servers outside the UK. We use it only with your consent and in line with our Privacy Policy.

Affiliate/Marketing cookies
These cookies may be set by third-party partners such as Amazon when you click affiliate links. They help attribute purchases to us. These cookies are only set by the third party and are subject to their own policies.

Contact forms and personal data

If you choose to contact us using a form on our website, we collect the personal information you provide, such as your name and email address, solely for the purpose of responding to your enquiry.

This information is not collected via cookies and is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Managing your cookie preferences

When you first visit our website, you will be asked to choose whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies.

Clicking an affiliate link may enable third-party cookies even if you have rejected analytics cookies, because those cookies are set by the third party once you leave our website.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clearing cookies in your browser and revisiting our website to update your choices.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling essential cookies may affect how the website functions.
