Cookie Policy

Last updated: 10 November 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how Samuel Tutor (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It also outlines your choices regarding these technologies. We provide this information to comply with the UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and to ensure transparency around our use of cookies.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website. They are used to make websites function, function more efficiently, or provide reporting information.

​

Cookies help our site:

​

  • operate correctly

  • remember your preferences

  • improve user experience

  • collect usage insights

 

We may also use comparable technologies such as web beacons or pixels.

 

Types of cookies:

​

  • First-party cookies — set by us

  • Third-party cookies — set by analytics or service providers

  • Session cookies — deleted when your browser closes

  • Persistent cookies — remain for a defined period unless deleted manually

2. Types of Cookies We Use

a. Essential Cookies

Required for the website to operate securely and correctly.
They enable core features such as:
 

  • logging in

  • account authentication

  • booking or checkout processes


These cookies cannot be disabled via our banner because they are necessary for the services you request. Blocking them in your browser may break site functionality.

b. Functional Cookies

These allow our website to remember your choices and provide enhanced features—such as keeping you logged in during a session or storing language preferences.

​

c. Analytics Cookies

​

Used to understand how visitors interact with our site so we can measure and improve performance. These cookies collect:

​

  • pages visited

  • time spent on pages

  • technical or usability issues

 

Wix Analytics
Collects aggregated, anonymous statistics about page interactions. Data is stored for a limited period before deletion.

​

Google Analytics (if enabled)
Measures traffic and usage patterns. IP addresses are anonymised for users in the UK and EU.
Cookies typically last 30 days to 2 years, depending on type.

​

Analytics cookies are non-essential and only load with your consent.

​

d. Advertising / Tracking Cookies

​

We do not use:

  • advertising cookies

  • cross-site tracking cookies

  • social media tracking pixels

  • profiling or behavioural advertising tools

​

3. Cookie Consent and Management

When you first visit our site, a cookie banner will appear offering:

​

  • Accept All — consents to all cookies, including analytics

  • Reject All — only essential cookies remain active

  • Preferences — allows you to customise cookie categories

 

Your choice is stored so the banner will not reappear unless:

  • you clear your cookies, or

  • our policy changes

 

You may change your consent at any time via the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer.

 

The preferences panel includes:

  • a full list of cookies in use

  • names, purposes, and durations

  • toggles for enabling or disabling non-essential cookies

 

You may additionally clear cookies directly in your browser settings.

4. Legal Basis for Cookies

  • Essential Cookies
    Processed under legitimate interests in maintaining a secure, functional website.
    Permitted under PECR without consent.

  • Non-Essential Cookies (Analytics / Functional)

        Only set with your consent, which may be withdrawn at any time via Cookie Settings.

 

We do not currently use marketing cookies. If this changes, we will obtain prior consent.

5. International Data Transfers Related to Cookies

Wix Platform

Some processing may occur on servers located in jurisdictions such as Israel or the United States.
Safeguards include:

  • UK adequacy decision (Israel)

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (US transfers)

 
Google Analytics

If used, anonymised analytics data may be processed in the US or elsewhere under:

  • the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, or

  • Standard Contractual Clauses

  • We ensure appropriate safeguards consistent with UK GDPR requirements.

6. How to Manage or Disable Cookies

You may:

  • adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies

  • clear all cookies to reset preferences (this logs you out)

  • use the Cookie Settings link to update consent choices


Important:
Disabling essential cookies may cause parts of the website to malfunction (e.g. booking or checkout failure).
 

Our site does not respond to Do Not Track browser signals, as no industry standard exists.

7. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this policy to reflect technological or legal changes.


When we do, the “Last updated” date will change, and we may request renewed consent if required.
