1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website operators.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar tracking technologies we use on the Scanbook platform at www.scanbook.uk (the "Platform"), why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
This Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we process personal information more broadly.

Performance and analytics cookies allow us to count visits and understand how users interact with the Platform. We use Google Analytics for this purpose.

6. Legal Basis for Using Cookies
Under PECR and UK GDPR, strictly necessary cookies do not require consent. For analytics, functional, and marketing cookies, we rely on your consent collected via our cookie consent banner.
Where we rely on consent, you have the right to withdraw it at any time.
7. How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences
When you first visit the Platform, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner. You can accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences by category. You can revisit and change your preferences via the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of the Platform.
For analytics opt-out specifically, you may use the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
8. Do Not Track
Some browsers include a Do Not Track feature that signals to websites that you do not wish to be tracked. The Platform does not currently respond to DNT signals, as there is no universally accepted standard for how to interpret them.
9. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in legislation, or improvements to the Platform. The updated version will be posted with a revised "Last Updated" date.
