Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files or similar technologies that websites may place on your device. They can be used to make websites function, remember choices, maintain security, understand how a website is used or support other online features.

APC will use cookies and similar technologies only where they support the operation, security or improvement of our website and services. The exact cookies used will be reviewed before launch so that this policy and any cookie controls accurately reflect the live website rather than listing technologies that APC does not actually use.

Some cookies may be necessary for the website to operate securely or provide a service you have requested. This can include technologies required for security, booking functionality, session management, fraud prevention or remembering privacy choices. Where a cookie is strictly necessary, consent is not normally required for that essential use, although we will still provide appropriate information about it.

APC may choose to use analytics tools to understand how visitors use the website and to improve its performance. If analytics cookies or similar non-essential technologies require consent, they will not be activated until the required consent has been obtained. The specific analytics provider and cookies, if any, will be listed here before launch.

APC does not currently intend to activate advertising or behavioural marketing cookies by default. If marketing technologies are introduced later, this policy and the website's consent controls will be updated before they are used, and consent will be requested where required by applicable law.

Some website features may be supplied by third parties, for example payment, booking, maps, video, customer-support or analytics providers. Those services may use cookies or similar technologies. Before launch, APC will review the final providers and identify any relevant third-party technologies in this policy and in the website's consent controls where required.

Where consent is required for non-essential cookies, you will be given a meaningful choice to accept or reject them and, where appropriate, manage your preferences. Refusing optional cookies should not prevent access to the basic website, although some optional features may work differently. You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings.

Where APC relies on your consent for cookies or similar technologies, you will be able to change or withdraw that consent as easily as reasonably possible. The final website will include an appropriate method for reopening or changing cookie preferences if non-essential cookies are used.

Information collected through cookies may in some circumstances be personal information. Where that is the case, APC will handle it in accordance with applicable UK data protection law, including the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018. Please read our Privacy Policy for more information about how APC handles personal information.

We may update this Cookie Policy if the technologies or service providers used by the website change. The policy will be reviewed before launch and periodically afterwards so that it remains consistent with the cookies and similar technologies actually in use.
