Maghullradio.co.uk Cookie & Privacy Policy

Maghullradio.co.uk publishes educational information about Chicken Road to help you play safely and stay in control. We don’t run games, open player accounts, or process payments. This page explains how cookies work on our site, what limited data we collect, how we protect it, and how you can manage your choices. If you need us, you can contact us via email.

How Cookies Improve Your Gaming Experience

Cookies make the site smoother and more reliable. They keep sessions stable, remember simple preferences, and show us—in aggregate—what needs fixing, never for ad profiling.

• Essential cookies: keep security, session integrity, and page rendering working. Without them, parts of the site may break.
• Functional cookies (optional): store non-sensitive choices such as language or hidden tips to reduce friction on repeat visits.
• Analytics cookies (optional, aggregated): help us understand which guides are most useful and where readers struggle, without building marketing profiles.

In short, we use the minimum necessary. Optional categories load only with your consent, and you can change that choice at any time.

What Data We Collect and How We Protect It

We collect only what we need to run and improve the site. That keeps your footprint small and your control high.

• Usage data: page views, clicks, time on page—used to spot issues and improve clarity.
• Device & technical data: browser/OS, screen size, basic error logs—used for speed and bug fixes.
• Preference data: cookie choices and display settings—used to remember safe, non-sensitive options.
• Communication data: if you email us, we keep your message to reply and keep a short record.

We defend this data with HTTPS/TLS, access controls, monitored infrastructure, timely patches, backups, and documented incident response. When retention ends, we delete or aggregate.

Safe Use of Third-Party Services

To host, secure, and measure performance, we rely on a small set of trusted providers acting as processors under written terms. They must protect data, follow our instructions, and never use it for their own marketing. We do not sell personal data. If the law requires disclosure, we limit it to the legal minimum and record the request where allowed.

Customising Cookies – Take Control of Your Preferences

You’re in charge. Use our banner or preferences link to accept or refuse optional cookies, then reload the page so changes apply. You can also manage cookies directly in your browser. The general steps are:

• Open your browser’s Settings or Preferences.
• Go to the Privacy or Security section.
• Find the option for Cookies or Site Data.
• Choose whether to allow, block, or delete cookies.

In addition, most browsers let you block third-party cookies while keeping essential ones, clear cookies for a single site (such as maghullradio.co.uk) without affecting others or use private/incognito mode so that cookies are not stored once you close the session.

Remember: blocking essential cookies may affect basic site functions such as saving your preferences, maintaining security, or displaying pages correctly. If you need help adjusting settings, you can contact us via email.

Policy Updates – Stay Informed and Get in Touch

We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, legal obligations, or best practices. The latest version will always be available on this page and will take effect as soon as it is published.

For significant changes, we may also display an on-site notice (such as a banner or pop-up) so you have the chance to review the updates and adjust your preferences if needed.

We encourage you to revisit this page periodically to stay informed about how we handle data, cookies, and your choices. If you have any questions about our privacy or cookie practices—or about any update—you can contact us directly via email.
