Cookie notice
Starter text for internal review. Replace bracketed placeholders (for example [like this]) before publication. This page is not legal advice — have counsel review the final version.
1. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage and pixels. They help the site remember preferences, keep you signed in, and understand how pages are used.
2. How we use them
The Watermill Club uses cookies and similar technologies for purposes such as:
- Essential operation — for example security, load balancing, and remembering your session or cookie choices.
- Preferences — where you save settings on the site.
- Analytics and improvement — [describe tools if/when enabled — e.g. privacy-first analytics]
- Marketing — [only if used — add details or state "not used"]
3. Third-party cookies
Some features rely on third parties (for example payment providers or embedded maps). Those providers may set their own cookies subject to their policies. [Maintain a table of third-party cookies — add when finalised.]
4. Your choices
You can control cookies through your browser settings (block, delete, or alert on cookies). Blocking essential cookies may affect how the site works — for example staying signed in.
A dedicated cookie preference centre on this site may be added later; until then, browser controls are the main way to manage non-essential cookies. For how we use personal data more broadly, see our Privacy Policy.
