Cookies Policy

Last Updated: January 15, 2026

1. Introduction

This Cookies Policy explains how SEMINARS ("we," "us," or "our"), a company registered at 40 Devonshire Street, London, W1G 6QB, United Kingdom, uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website at freeseminar.info. We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use and giving you control over how your browsing data is collected and used.

By visiting our website, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept, adjust your preferences, or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored locally on your device and remembered for future visits. You may change your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings or by clearing your stored preferences and revisiting the site.

This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which provides comprehensive details about how we handle personal data, and our Terms of Use, which govern the use of our website.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used across the internet to make websites function properly, to improve user experience, and to provide website operators with certain types of information about how visitors interact with their pages.

Cookies can be "first-party" cookies, which are set directly by the website you are visiting, or "third-party" cookies, which are set by a domain other than the one you are currently browsing. The duration of a cookie varies: "session cookies" are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser, while "persistent cookies" remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them.

In addition to traditional cookies, websites may also use similar technologies such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage objects. For the purposes of this policy, the term "cookies" covers all of these technologies unless otherwise specified.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Our website uses only two categories of cookies: essential (technical) cookies and analytics cookies. We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting cookies, or any cookies designed to build marketing profiles of our visitors.

3.1 Essential (Technical) Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of our website. Without them, certain fundamental features would not function correctly. Essential cookies enable core functionality such as page navigation, secure access to different areas of the website, and remembering your cookie consent preferences.

Cookie Name Purpose Duration Type
cookie_consent Stores your cookie consent preference (accepted or rejected) 12 months First-party, Local Storage

Because these cookies are essential for the website to operate, they do not require your consent under applicable data protection laws. However, we still inform you of their use for full transparency.

3.2 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information about page views, visitor numbers, popular content, and general browsing patterns. This data is aggregated and anonymized, meaning it does not personally identify individual users. We use these insights to improve our website structure, content quality, and overall user experience.

Cookie Name Purpose Duration Type
_ga Distinguishes unique visitors by assigning a randomly generated number as a client identifier 13 months Third-party (Google Analytics)
_ga_* Maintains session state for Google Analytics 4 13 months Third-party (Google Analytics)

Analytics cookies are only placed on your device if you accept them through our cookie consent banner. If you decline, no analytics cookies will be set and your browsing activity will not be tracked for analytical purposes.

3.3 Cookies We Do NOT Use

We want to be fully transparent about what our website does not do. The following types of cookies and tracking technologies are never used on freeseminar.info:

  • Advertising cookies — We do not serve ads on our website and do not set any cookies for advertising purposes.
  • Retargeting cookies — We do not track you across other websites and do not use retargeting or remarketing cookies of any kind.
  • Social media tracking cookies — We do not embed social media widgets or trackers that place cookies on your device.
  • Profiling cookies — We do not create behavioral profiles of visitors and never use cookies to monitor individual browsing habits for commercial purposes.

4. Cookie Consent Banner

When you visit our website for the first time, you will see a cookie consent banner in the bottom-right corner of your screen. This banner provides you with three options:

Accept

Enables both essential and analytics cookies

Settings

Allows you to review cookie categories before deciding

Decline

Only essential cookies remain active; analytics are blocked

Your preference is saved in your browser's local storage and is remembered for subsequent visits. The cookie consent banner will not appear again unless you clear your browser's local storage or use a different device or browser. The banner does not block access to content and is designed to be non-intrusive while still ensuring informed consent.

If you choose to decline cookies, analytics scripts will not load and no analytics data will be collected during your visit. Essential cookies will continue to function as they are necessary for the basic operation of the website.

5. How to Manage and Delete Cookies

In addition to the consent options provided through our cookie banner, you can manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. Please note that disabling all cookies may affect your experience on our website and other websites you visit.

Below are links to cookie management instructions for the most commonly used browsers:

  • Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
  • Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
  • Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data

You can also reset your cookie preferences on our website by clearing the "cookie_consent" entry from your browser's local storage and refreshing the page. The consent banner will then reappear, allowing you to make a new selection.

6. Legal Basis for Using Cookies

Our use of cookies is governed by the following legal frameworks:

  • Essential cookies: These are placed under the "strictly necessary" exemption under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. They do not require consent because the website cannot function properly without them.
  • Analytics cookies: These are placed only with your explicit consent, in accordance with PECR, the UK GDPR, and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where applicable. You may withdraw your consent at any time by declining cookies through the banner or clearing your browser data.

For information about how we process the personal data collected through cookies, including your rights as a data subject, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

7. Third-Party Cookies

The only third-party cookies used on our website are those set by Google Analytics, which is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC. Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze visitor traffic and understand general patterns in how our content is consumed. The data collected by Google Analytics is transmitted to and processed by Google in accordance with their privacy policy.

We have configured Google Analytics to anonymize IP addresses before processing, which means your full IP address is not stored. We have also disabled data sharing with Google for advertising purposes, and we do not use any Google Signals features or demographic reporting.

We do not use any other third-party cookies or tracking technologies on our website. No data collected through cookies is sold to, shared with, or made available to any third party for their own commercial purposes.

8. Data Retention for Cookie Data

The data collected through cookies is retained for the following periods:

  • Cookie consent preference: Stored in your browser's local storage for 12 months, or until you manually clear it.
  • Google Analytics cookies: Automatically expire after 13 months. Aggregated analytics data is retained in our Google Analytics account for 14 months, after which it is automatically deleted.

You can delete cookie data from your device at any time using your browser settings. Deleting cookies does not affect the aggregated analytics data already collected, but it will prevent further tracking until new cookies are accepted.

9. Children and Cookies

Our website is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly set cookies on the devices of minors, nor do we knowingly collect analytics data from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child under 16 has provided personal information through our website or that cookies have been placed on their device, please contact us at [email protected] so we can take appropriate action.

10. Do Not Track (DNT) Signals

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. Our website does not currently respond to DNT signals in a standardized way. However, you can always control your cookie preferences through our consent banner and your browser settings, regardless of DNT support. We encourage you to use the tools described in Section 5 of this policy to manage your preferences directly.

11. Changes to This Cookies Policy

We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in applicable law, or improvements to our website. When we make significant changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and may also display a notice on our website or reset the cookie consent banner so that you can review and confirm your preferences under the updated policy.

We recommend reviewing this page periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies. Continued use of the website after changes to this policy have been published constitutes your acknowledgment of those changes, although non-essential cookies will still only be placed with your active consent.
