Cookies Policy
Introduction
This Cookies Policy explains how glampathki uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It was last updated on 18 September 2026. We operate in the United Kingdom and comply with the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). This policy provides clear details on our practices so you can make informed choices about your data.
What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They can store or access information such as your preferences, browsing history, and device details. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, and local storage that perform comparable functions. These tools help websites function effectively but also raise privacy considerations under UK law.
Why the Site Uses Cookies
We use cookies to deliver our Course A lifestyle media production guide content reliably. This includes supporting visual direction tutorials, studio styling resources, lighting paths explanations, camera framing techniques, and polished content workflows. Without these technologies many core features would not operate smoothly for visitors seeking professional media production guidance.
Categories of Cookies We Employ
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These are essential for basic site functions such as navigation and form submission on our contact page. They require no consent under PECR because they are necessary for the service you request.
Functional Cookies
These remember your settings to improve usability during sessions focused on media production topics. They enhance your experience without tracking across unrelated sites.
Analytics or Performance Cookies
These collect aggregated information about how users interact with our guide content. We use them to refine workflows and framing advice based on overall usage patterns.
Advertising or Targeting Cookies
Where applicable these help deliver relevant promotions for our commercial media production resources while respecting your preferences under UK rules.
Social Media Cookies
These may integrate with external platforms to allow sharing of content about studio styling or lighting paths but only with your explicit agreement.
First-Party Versus Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by glampathki and relate only to our domain. Third-party cookies come from external providers assisting with analytics or content delivery. We limit third-party use to essential partners and ensure they follow UK data standards.
Session Versus Persistent Cookies
Session cookies expire when you close your browser and handle temporary tasks like form completion. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period, typically up to 24 months for analytics purposes, allowing us to understand long-term engagement with our production guide materials. Exact expiry varies by provider but is always disclosed in our consent tool.
Data Handled and Purposes of Each Category
Strictly necessary cookies process minimal data such as session identifiers to enable contact form functionality. Functional cookies store preferences like language or layout choices. Analytics cookies handle anonymised usage statistics to improve camera framing and workflow sections. All processing aligns with legitimate interests or consent where required by PECR.
Consent or Exemption Basis for Each Category
Under UK GDPR and PECR strictly necessary cookies rely on the strict necessity exemption. All other categories require your prior consent which we obtain through our site-wide cookie banner. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
How the Consent Manager Works
Our banner allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential ones, or customise choices by category. Selections are recorded and can be changed via a link in the footer. Withdrawing consent stops further collection from that point onward.
Browser-Level Controls and Consequences
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through settings. Disabling necessary cookies may prevent access to contact forms or core guide features. Performance and analytics features may also stop working correctly if you restrict those categories.
International Transfers
Some third-party providers may transfer data outside the UK. We rely on approved safeguards such as standard contractual clauses. Details appear in our separate Privacy Policy which you can request by contacting [email protected].
Policy Changes and Contact Route
We may update this policy to reflect legal or operational changes. The current version always appears on this page. For questions reach us using the contact form on our Contacts page or by writing to 36 Shad Thames, Butler's Wharf Building, London, SE1 2YE, United Kingdom.
