Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how the Life Science Education Trust ("LSET", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more broadly.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to site owners about how their site is being used. Similar technologies — such as pixels and local storage — work in much the same way.

Types of cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function. They enable core features such as page navigation, form submissions, and access to secure areas. Without them, parts of the site may not work properly. They are always on and cannot be switched off through our preferences panel.

Performance and analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are visited most, where visitors come from, and any errors they encounter. We use this information in aggregate form to improve our content and user experience. We do not use these cookies to identify you personally.

Functional cookies

These cookies remember your preferences and choices (such as language or region) to give you a more personalised experience. They may be set by us or by third-party services whose features we have added to the site.

Marketing cookies

Where used, these cookies help us measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and may show you content relevant to your interests on other websites. We only set marketing cookies if you have given consent.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies on our site are set by third parties — for example analytics, embedded videos, or social media tools. We do not control these cookies; you should refer to the relevant third party's own cookie and privacy notice for details. Typical third-party providers we may use include:

• Analytics platforms used to understand site usage and improve content.
• Video and embedded media services used on blog posts and event pages.
• Social media platforms used for sharing buttons and embedded posts.

Managing your cookie preferences

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using your browser settings. Most browsers let you block all cookies, accept only first-party cookies, or delete cookies that have already been set. Please note that disabling some cookies may affect how parts of the site work for you.

For more information about cookies in general — including how to control and delete them — visit aboutcookies.org or allaboutcookies.org.

How long cookies stay on your device

Cookies are either "session" or "persistent". Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay on your device until they expire or you delete them. The length of time a cookie stays on your device depends on whether it is a session or persistent cookie and the specific settings configured by the cookie's issuer.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, the law, or our practices. The latest version will always be available on this page with an updated date.
