1. What cookies are
Cookies and similar technologies are small data files or identifiers used by websites for functions such as remembering preferences, maintaining security, measuring use of a site or supporting advertising features.
2. Cookie categories used by PCG
| Category | Purpose | Consent |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Required for core website functions, security, consent storage or features explicitly requested by the user. | Used where legally permitted without consent. |
| Preferences | Remember optional choices such as language or interface preferences. | Consent where required. |
| Analytics | Help understand website use and performance. | Not activated before consent where consent is required. |
| Marketing / advertising | May be used to measure campaigns or personalise advertising. | Requires prior consent where applicable. |
3. Your cookie choices
When non-essential cookies are used, the website should provide a consent interface that allows users to accept or reject them with equivalent prominence and to configure optional categories.
Withdrawing consent must be possible as easily as giving it. A permanent “Cookie Settings” control should remain available from the website footer or another clearly accessible location.
4. Current cookie list
| Cookie / technology | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [COOKIE NAME] | [PROVIDER] | [PURPOSE] | [DURATION] | [CATEGORY] |
5. Third-party technologies
If the final website uses analytics, advertising, embedded media, maps, chat, AI assistants or social-media tools, those providers may set or access technologies subject to the choices made through the consent interface.
The final Cookie Policy should identify the material third parties actually present on the production website rather than listing services that PCG does not use.
6. Browser controls
Browsers also allow users to delete or block cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the website from working correctly. Browser controls do not replace PCG's obligation to obtain consent for non-essential cookies where required.
7. Changes to this Cookie Policy
This policy may be updated if PCG changes website technology, analytics, advertising tools or consent-management systems. The date of the current version will be shown at the top of the page.
