Our Win information site uses small browser files to keep pages working, remember your preferences and understand how the service is used. This policy explains the cookie categories we use, the choices available to you and the controls you can apply in your own browser.
How this site remembers you
We use browser storage for several practical purposes. Essential files support core functions such as page delivery, security settings and the handling of your cookie choices. Without these files, parts of the site may not behave as intended.
Preference storage remembers choices such as your selected language and whether you have dismissed a consent prompt. This saves us from asking for the same selection on every visit. Browser storage associated with your session is removed when the session ends, while longer-lasting preferences remain until you clear them or change your settings.
The analytics question
Analytics cookies help us understand which pages are visited, how visitors move through the site and whether features work correctly. The information is used to improve navigation, identify technical faults and prioritise content that readers find useful.
Where analytics requires consent, it runs only after you make that choice. Declining does not prevent you from reading the site, and it stops the optional measurement associated with your visit.
Scripts outside our control
Some embedded services operate through their own scripts and may place cookies on your device. We select these services for functions such as analytics, advertising measurement and media delivery, but their storage behaviour is governed by the respective provider's terms and settings.
Your browser sends information directly to those services when the relevant script loads. You can control this activity through consent settings, browser extensions and the controls described below.
Your browser options
Your browser lets you review, block or delete stored files. Removing cookies may sign you out of a service, reset saved preferences and cause some page elements to reload on your next visit.
- Chrome: open Privacy and security, choose Third-party cookies, then review site permissions.
- Firefox: open Privacy & Security, select Cookies and Site Data, then manage individual permissions.
- Safari: open Privacy, select Manage Website Data, or use the Security settings to block stored data.
- Edge: open Privacy, search for Cookies and site permissions, then adjust the access level for each site.
Browser settings vary by device and software version. If a control is missing, use the browser's privacy menu or its help pages for current instructions.
Consent and changing your choice
Where consent is required, optional categories remain inactive until you accept them. A consent control lets you withdraw or amend your decision, and a withdrawal takes effect for future processing rather than removing information already collected.
Clearing your browser storage also removes the cookie that records your consent choice. The next visit may therefore present the relevant prompt again.
Policy revisions
We revise this policy when our use of cookies or the third-party functions on the site changes. Material changes are reflected in the wording published here, and the updated version becomes the reference for future visits.
