What cookies and similar technologies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They can store or access information such as your preferences, browsing history and device details. Similar technologies include pixels, web beacons and local storage that perform comparable functions.

Why the site uses them

scoopzly uses cookies to ensure the website functions correctly, remember user choices, analyse performance and deliver relevant content related to Course A reporting and media workflow guides covering story discovery, newsroom planning, studio reports, camera setup and clear content production.

Categories of cookies we use

We categorise cookies as strictly necessary, functional, analytics or performance, advertising or targeting, and social media. Each category serves distinct purposes and is subject to different legal requirements under UK law.

First-party versus third-party cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by scoopzly and help us operate core features. Third-party cookies are set by external providers for analytics or other services and may involve data sharing with those providers.

Session versus persistent cookies

Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period or until manually deleted, with typical durations ranging from a few days to two years depending on their purpose.

Data handled and purpose of each category

Strictly necessary cookies handle login status and security. Functional cookies remember display preferences. Analytics cookies track page visits and user flows. Advertising cookies may record interests for targeted content. Social media cookies enable sharing features where present.

Consent or exemption basis for each category

Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations and UK GDPR, strictly necessary cookies operate without consent. All other categories require your prior consent, which you may withdraw at any time through our consent manager.

Cookie table

The following table lists the main cookies used on this site. Necessary cookies include session identifiers lasting until browser close. Analytics cookies from providers such as Google Analytics last up to 26 months. Functional cookies for language settings persist for 12 months. No advertising cookies are currently deployed on this site.

How the consent manager works

Our site-wide cookie banner allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can revisit the banner at any time via the footer link to change or withdraw your choices. All selections are recorded and respected across visits.

Browser-level controls

Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through settings. Disabling cookies may prevent certain features such as remembering preferences or completing forms from working properly.
