COOKIE POLICY

This Cookie Policy explains how PNP Events Ltd (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at https://southdevonrailwaythepolarexpressride.com (“Website”).

It outlines what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control their use. In some cases, we may use cookies to collect personal information—or information that could become personal if combined with other data.

Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make websites function properly, improve efficiency, and provide useful reporting information.

Cookies set by the website itself are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by other parties are called “third-party cookies.” Third-party cookies enable features or functionality from those parties to be used on the website, such as advertising, interactive content, or analytics. These third-party cookies can recognize your device not only when you visit the website in question but also when you visit certain other websites.

We use both first-party and third-party cookies for several purposes. Some cookies are essential for technical reasons and are necessary for our Website to function properly; we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies.

Other cookies help us track and understand user interests, allowing us to improve and personalise the experience on our online properties. Additionally, third parties may place cookies through our Website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes. More details on these cookies are provided below.

You have the right to accept or reject cookies. You can manage your cookie preferences using the Cookie Consent Manager, which allows you to choose which categories of cookies you want to accept or reject. Please note that essential cookies cannot be rejected, as they are strictly necessary to provide you with our services.

The Cookie Consent Manager is available both in the notification banner and on our Website. If you choose to reject certain cookies, you can still use our Website, although some features and areas may be limited. You can also adjust your web browser settings to accept or refuse cookies at any time.

The types of first-party and third-party cookies used on our Website, along with the purposes they serve, are described in the table below. Please note that the specific cookies used may vary depending on the Online Properties you visit.

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide the services available on our Website and to enable certain features, such as access to secure areas.
