1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on a device when someone visits a website. They help websites function, remember choices and, where permitted, provide information about how visitors use a site.

Similar technologies may perform related functions. References to cookies in this notice include those technologies where appropriate.

2. How this website uses cookies

This website is hosted by Squarespace. Squarespace may place cookies and use related technologies to operate, secure and deliver the website.

The site may use:

Essential cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function properly and securely. They may support features such as navigation, form operation, security, network management and visitors’ privacy choices. Because they are necessary for the service requested by the visitor, they cannot ordinarily be disabled through the website’s cookie controls.

Analytics and performance cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors reach and use the website, including information such as page visits, traffic sources and general patterns of interaction. We use this information to understand and improve the website.

Analytics and performance cookies are non-essential and will be restricted unless the visitor provides the required consent through the cookie banner.

3. Third-party services

Squarespace provides the website platform, hosting, forms and native website analytics.

We do not currently use separate advertising cookies or behavioural advertising tools. If we introduce additional services, such as third-party analytics, embedded media or marketing technologies, we will review and update this notice and the website’s consent controls as required.

Third-party providers may process technical information in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.

4. Your cookie choices

When you first visit the website, the cookie banner allows you to accept, decline or manage non-essential cookies.

You may change or withdraw your consent through the website’s cookie-preference controls where available. You can also delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect how the website functions.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.

5. How long cookies remain

Some cookies operate only for the duration of a browsing session and are deleted when the browser is closed. Others remain for a defined period or until they are deleted.

The duration depends upon the purpose and type of cookie and may be determined by Squarespace or another relevant service provider. Squarespace’s current cookie information is available through its website and may be updated periodically.

6. Personal information

Information collected through cookies or similar technologies may constitute personal information where it identifies, or can reasonably be linked to, an individual.

Further information about how Northridge uses personal information, the lawful bases relied upon and your data-protection rights is provided in our Privacy Notice.
