Cookie Policy
Last updated: [DATE — set after the Complianz scan runs on staging]
This Cookie Policy explains how Urban Soul Orchestra Limited ("USO", "we", "our", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on urbansoulorchestra.co.uk. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle your personal data more broadly.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors use the site. Some cookies are set by us ("first-party cookies") and some are set by other services whose content appears on our pages ("third-party cookies").
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for three purposes:
Essential cookies These are required for the website to function securely and correctly — for example, remembering your cookie preferences. They do not require your consent and cannot be switched off.
Statistics cookies We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use our website — which pages are visited, for how long, and from what type of device. This data is anonymised and helps us improve the site. These cookies are only set after you give consent via the cookie banner.
Third-party media cookies Some pages include embedded videos from YouTube and audio players from Spotify. These embeds are blocked by default: you will see a placeholder until you accept cookies, and only then does the content load. Once loaded, YouTube and Spotify may set their own cookies and collect data as described in their privacy policies:
- YouTube / Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Spotify: https://www.spotify.com/legal/privacy-policy/
We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not sell data collected through cookies.
3. Cookies Used on This Website
The table below is generated automatically from a scan of our website and is kept up to date as the site changes.
[COMPLIANZ DYNAMIC COOKIE TABLE — inserted automatically by the Complianz document shortcode. Do not replace with a static table.]
4. Your Choices
When you first visit our website, a cookie banner asks for your consent before any non-essential cookies are set. You can:
- Accept — statistics cookies and embedded media are enabled.
- Decline — only essential cookies are used; embedded videos and audio players will not load.
- Change your mind at any time — reopen your cookie preferences using the [manage cookie preferences link/button — Complianz provides this shortcode] or clear cookies in your browser settings.
You can also opt out of Google Analytics across all websites here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/
Please note that blocking cookies in your browser may affect how parts of the website function.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time — for example, if we add new features or services to the website. The latest version will always be available on this page, and the cookie table above updates automatically when our site scan detects changes.
6. Contact
If you have any questions about our use of cookies, contact us at enquiries@urbansoulorchestra.co.uk or see our Privacy Policy for full details of your data protection rights.
