The Yard Wellness Cookie Policy
Last updated: 7 October 2026
This policy explains how The Yard Wellness uses cookies and similar technologies on https://www.theyardwellness.com. The Yard Wellness is operated by Claudia Martin, trading as The Yard Wellness, who is the data controller. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site work, remember your preferences and, where you agree, help us understand how the site is used. Similar technologies, such as pixels and local storage, work in much the same way, and we refer to all of them as "cookies" in this policy.
2. How we use cookies
Strictly necessary cookies
These are needed for the website to work, for example to keep the site secure, enable account access and bookings, and remember your cookie choices. They don't require consent, so they can't be switched off through our cookie settings.
Analytics cookies
These help us understand how visitors use our website, such as which pages are most popular, so we can improve it. We only use these if you accept them.
Marketing cookies
These may be used to measure the effectiveness of our advertising or show you relevant content, for example through social media platforms. We only use these if you accept them.
3. Cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
crumb (Squarespace): protects the site and forms against security attacks. Lasts for the session.
ss_cookieAllowed (Squarespace): stores your cookie choices. Lasts 1 year.
Analytics cookies
ss_cvr (Squarespace Analytics): identifies returning visitors to produce usage statistics. Lasts 2 years.
ss_cvt (Squarespace Analytics): identifies a single visit to the site. Lasts 30 minutes.
4. Third-party cookies
Our website is built and hosted on Squarespace. Some cookies are set by providers whose services we use, including Squarespace, ClubRight for bookings and memberships, and [embedded content such as YouTube, Instagram or Google Maps, if used]. These providers have their own privacy and cookie policies, and we don't control how they use your information. Where they act as independent data controllers, their policies explain how they use your data.
5. Your choices
Where consent is required, we ask before using optional cookies. You can accept, reject or change your choices at any time through [the cookie settings link in the website footer]. Withdrawing consent does not affect cookies used lawfully before you withdrew it.
You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Guidance is available at aboutcookies.org. If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the site, such as account access and bookings, may not work properly.
6. Legal basis
We rely on your consent for optional cookies. Strictly necessary cookies are used because they are needed to provide the website or service you have requested. Where cookies collect personal information, such as your IP address, browser and device details, we handle it as described in our Privacy Policy, including how long we keep it (see Section 9 of that policy).
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy if we change the cookies we use or for legal reasons. The "last updated" date above shows when it was last changed.
8. Contact us
If you have questions about our use of cookies, contact us at info@theyardwellness.co.uk or at The Yard, Trent Park Equestrian Centre, Bramley Road, N14 4UW. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
