Cookie policy
Cookies are small files a website stores on your device. This page explains the cookies Hosted Rounds uses and how to control them. We manage consent through CookieYes, so you are always in charge of what you allow.
1. Your choices
The first time you visit, a CookieYes banner asks which optional cookies you are happy to allow. Strictly necessary cookies are always on because the site cannot work without them. You can change your mind at any time, either from the cookie icon CookieYes places on the page, or with the button below.
2. The cookies we use
We group cookies into the categories below. CookieYes keeps an up-to-date list of the individual cookies within each category, viewable from the preferences panel.
| Category | What it does | Set by | Consent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Keep you logged in, keep the site secure, and remember your cookie choices. The site can't work without these. | Hosted Rounds, Firebase Auth, CookieYes | Always on |
| Functional | Remember preferences such as your region so you don't have to set them again. | Hosted Rounds | Optional |
| Analytics | Help us understand which pages are used, so we can improve them. Aggregated, never used to identify you. | Google Analytics, through Google Tag Manager | Optional |
| Advertising | Tell Meta that someone visited a page or started an application, so we can measure whether our advertising works and show ads to people who have been here before. It never carries your name, email address or WHS number. | Meta | Optional, off unless you accept |
3. Third parties
Some cookies are set by the providers that run the service: CookieYes (recording your consent choices), our website host, and Google Firebase (keeping you signed in). These are covered in our Privacy policy. Two third parties can set cookies here, and only if you let them: Google, for analytics, and Meta, for advertising. Both are off until you accept them in the banner, and you can turn them off again at any time through the cookie settings.
4. Managing cookies in your browser
As well as the controls above, every major browser lets you block or delete cookies in its settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site, such as staying logged in, from working.
5. Changes and contact
If we add or change cookies, we will update this page and, where required, ask for your consent again through CookieYes. Questions: hello@hostedrounds.co.uk.
