This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies may be used when you visit The Inclusive Wedding Company.
It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains more broadly how we collect and use personal information.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites can place on your device when you visit them.
They can perform a range of functions, including enabling websites to work correctly, remembering preferences, understanding how visitors use a website and helping website owners improve their services.
Some cookies operate only for the duration of your visit, while others may remain on your device for a longer period.
Similar technologies may also be used for comparable purposes.
2. How we use cookies

enabling essential website functionality;
maintaining website security and performance;
remembering certain preferences;
understanding how visitors interact with our website;
measuring website traffic and performance;
improving the usability and effectiveness of our website; and
supporting third-party services or embedded functionality that we choose to use.
We aim to use cookies proportionately and in accordance with applicable UK privacy and data-protection requirements.
3. Essential cookies
Some cookies are necessary for the website to function properly.
These may support functions such as:
website security;
navigation;
form functionality;
accessibility or display preferences;
session management; and
cookie-consent preferences.
Essential cookies do not normally require consent where they are genuinely necessary to provide the website or service you have requested.

We may use analytics or performance technologies to understand how visitors use our website.
These can help us understand information such as:
which pages are visited;
how visitors navigate through the website;
how visitors arrive at the website;
whether website features are working effectively; and
general website performance.
We use this information to understand and improve the website and customer experience.
Where UK law requires consent before analytics or similar non-essential technologies are used, we will seek that consent through the appropriate cookie controls.
5. Third-party services
Our website is currently hosted using Squarespace and may connect to or contain functionality provided by other third-party services.

Third-party providers may set their own cookies or process information according to their own privacy and cookie policies.

Our website may contain links to or embedded content from other websites and services.
When you interact with third-party content or follow a link to another website, that provider may use its own cookies or similar technologies.
The Inclusive Wedding Company does not control cookies placed directly by independent third-party websites.
We recommend reviewing the privacy and cookie information provided by those organisations where appropriate.
7. Cookie consent
When you first visit our website, you may be presented with a cookie banner or preference control.
Where consent is required, you should be able to choose whether to allow relevant non-essential cookies.
