Cookie Policy

Operator Licence Ltd uses cookies and similar technologies across this website to support basic site functions, improve the performance of pages and forms, understand how visitors use the site and maintain a reliable browsing experience. This website is not an official government service. It is operated by a private limited company providing independent consultancy and support services.

What cookies are

Cookies are small files stored on your device when you visit a website. Some are necessary for the site to function correctly. Others help remember preferences, measure usage, support search or form behaviour, and provide anonymised or aggregated reporting about how pages are used.

Cookies we may use

We may use strictly necessary cookies for security, session handling, page rendering, mobile navigation, form submissions and site stability. We may also use analytics or performance cookies to understand how users interact with the website, which pages are visited, how long sessions last and where users enter or leave the site. Depending on the page and tools active at the time, this may include Google Analytics or related Google services, as well as cookies from embedded chat, search, maps, media or plugin-based functions.

Because this is a WordPress website, cookies may also be set by core WordPress functions, security layers, caching tools, form systems, embedded media, search features or plugins used to keep the site working properly. Some cookies last only for a session, while others may remain for a longer period so settings or measurement preferences can be remembered.

Why we use them

Cookies help us maintain a working WordPress site, understand whether pages are useful, identify where conversion paths can be improved and review whether forms, menus, mobile layouts and service pages are functioning properly. Where analytics or non-essential tracking is used, we aim to do so responsibly and in a way that supports legitimate site improvement rather than unnecessary data collection.

Consent and control

Where non-essential cookies are used, users should be given a clear choice about whether they are set. Essential cookies needed to provide the service or maintain security may still operate without the same consent standard where the law allows. You can also adjust cookie preferences in your browser or clear previously stored cookies from your device.

Managing cookies

You can usually manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect site functionality, such as assessment forms, saved preferences, search behaviour or certain embedded features. If you disable optional analytics cookies, you may still be able to use the site, but some measurement tools may no longer operate as intended.

Personal data and cookies

Some cookie-based tools may collect identifiers or technical data such as IP address, browser type, device characteristics and pages viewed. Where this happens, we treat that information in line with our Privacy Policy. We do not use this website to gather unnecessary personal data through cookies, and we aim to keep tracking limited to what is genuinely useful for site operation, measurement or security.

Questions or removal requests

If you want to ask about cookies, privacy or the personal data connected to website usage, contact us at info@operatorlicence.co.uk or via our contact page. For official UK guidance on cookies and consent requirements, see the ICO guide to cookies and similar technologies.
