Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 12 May 2026 · Effective Date: 12 May 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Tarrith ("we", "our", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at tarriths.sbs. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader context on how we handle personal data.
If you have questions about this policy, please contact us at [email protected].
01
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to remember your preferences, and — where you consent — to provide anonymised information about how the site is used. Cookies do not contain executable code and cannot access other files on your device.
Similar technologies include local storage entries, session storage, and pixel tags. Where this policy refers to "cookies", it also covers these related technologies unless stated otherwise.
02
How We Use Cookies
We use cookies in three categories. Essential cookies are always active; analytics and preference cookies are only set if you have given consent via our cookie banner.
| Category | Purpose | Consent Required | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | Cookie banner preference storage, CSRF protection for contact form, session continuity | No — strictly necessary | Session or up to 12 months |
| Analytics | Anonymised page-view counts, referral source, device type — used only to understand which pages are read most and to improve content | Yes | Up to 13 months |
| Preference | Remembering UI preferences such as text size or whether you have dismissed informational notices | Yes | Up to 12 months |
We do not use advertising, marketing, retargeting, or cross-site tracking cookies of any kind.
03
Specific Cookies Set
The table below describes the specific cookies currently in use on this website. This list is updated periodically as our site changes.
| Cookie Name | Category | Description | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| tarrith_cookie_consent | Essential | Stores your cookie consent preference so the banner is not shown again on subsequent visits | 12 months |
| tarrith_session | Essential | Maintains session state for form submission processing; expires when the browser is closed | Session |
| _analytics_v | Analytics | Anonymised visitor identifier used to distinguish unique page views; no personally identifiable information is stored | 13 months |
| _analytics_s | Analytics | Session-level analytics token used to group page views within a single visit | Session |
| tarrith_ui_pref | Preference | Stores lightweight UI preferences, such as whether informational notices have been acknowledged | 12 months |
04
Third-Party Cookies
Our website may embed a Google Maps frame to display our office location. When that frame loads, Google may set its own cookies subject to Google's Cookie Policy and Privacy Policy. We do not control those cookies. If you prefer not to receive them, you may disable the map frame by adjusting your browser settings or by declining non-essential cookies via our cookie banner.
We do not embed social media widgets, video players, or advertising scripts that would introduce additional third-party cookies.
05
Your Consent and How to Manage It
When you first visit our website, a cookie banner invites you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored in the tarrith_cookie_consent cookie and applied on all subsequent visits for 12 months. Essential cookies are always active and cannot be declined, as they are necessary for the website to function.
You may change your preference at any time by clearing this cookie from your browser, which will cause the banner to appear again on your next visit.
In addition to our own controls, all major browsers allow you to manage, block, or delete cookies through their settings panels. Disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of our contact form.

06
Analytics and Anonymisation
Where you have consented to analytics cookies, we use the data solely to understand reading patterns on our programme pages — for example, which course descriptions are read most completely, or which sections prompt enquiry form submissions. All analytics data is anonymised before storage. We do not attempt to re-identify visitors, and we do not share analytics data with third-party advertisers or data brokers.
Analytics data is retained for up to 13 months, after which it is aggregated into summary statistics and the session-level detail is deleted.
07
Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit a Do Not Track (DNT) signal. Our website respects this signal: if your browser sends DNT, we do not set analytics or preference cookies regardless of any prior consent stored in the cookie banner cookie.
08
Policy Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy if we introduce new functionality or if applicable requirements change. Material changes will be flagged when you next visit the site. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the website after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
