Cookie Policy

1. About this Policy

This policy explains how The Money Platform uses cookies and similar technologies on https://themoneyplatform.com. The Money Platform is a trading name of Gracombex Ltd (company number 09413521).

This policy forms part of The Money Platform's Privacy Policy. It applies when information is stored on, or accessed from, a device through the website. Cookies that are essential to provide the website or a service you request may operate without consent. We require an affirmative choice before using other cookies for which consent is required. We do not treat continued browsing as consent.

The rules that principally apply are the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (PECR). Where cookie information is personal data, the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018 also apply.

2. What Cookies Are

A cookie is a small text file placed on a computer, tablet, phone, or other device when a website is visited. Cookies can make a website work, remember choices, and provide information about how the website is used. Similar technologies that store or access information on a device are covered by this policy in the same way.

A first-party cookie is set by The Money Platform's website. A third-party cookie is set through a service provided by another organisation. A session cookie expires when the browser is closed; a persistent cookie remains until its set expiry date or until it is removed.

3. Cookies Used on Our Website

The website uses the cookie categories summarised below. A cookie is classified by what it does, rather than by the organisation that supplies it.

The exact cookies used can change when the website or its configuration changes. The Cookie Settings control provides the current cookie details and choices. We do not use the label 'strictly necessary' merely because a cookie is useful to us.

Provider Category Purpose When it is used
The Money Platform Strictly necessary Operate and protect the website and remember a cookie choice. Without consent only where the cookie is essential to provide a requested service or transmit a communication.
The Money Platform Functionality Remember choices and provide selected website features. After consent, unless the cookie is essential to a feature you request.
Google Analytics Analytics / performance Measure website traffic and how pages are used so that we can improve the website. After consent.

Google Analytics and Personal Data

We use Google Analytics to understand website traffic and how visitors use pages. Analytics information may include online identifiers and information about a device, browser, and interaction with the website. Reports available to us may be aggregated, but the underlying use of cookies or identifiers can still involve personal data.

Google Analytics is supplied by Google and is used here as an analytics/performance service. Where analytics information is personal data, it is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection law.

4. Consent and Cookie Choices

When you first visit, the cookie control allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies and to manage your choices. Rejecting non-essential cookies does not prevent strictly necessary cookies from operating.

You can change your choices or withdraw consent at any time through the Cookie Settings link on the website. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place lawfully before withdrawal, but it prevents future use of the cookies covered by that consent. You may need to remove cookies already stored on your device through your browser settings.

5. Browser Controls

Most browsers allow you to:

  • View and remove cookies stored on your device.
  • Block cookies from websites or block all cookies.
  • Receive a warning before a cookie is stored.

Browser controls are separate from the website's Cookie Settings. Blocking all cookies may prevent parts of the website or a requested feature from working, while rejecting analytics cookies should not prevent use of the core website.

6. Changes and Contact

We may update this policy when the website, the cookies used or legal requirements change. We will update the version and date in the document history. Continued use of the website does not amount to consent to a new non-essential cookie or purpose; we will ask for a new choice where required.

For more information about how we use personal data, read our Privacy Policy. Questions about this policy can be sent through our Contact Us page.
