Version: 1.0 (DRAFT — subject to solicitor review before publication)
IMPORTANT. This Cookie Policy has been drafted to comply with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR), the UK GDPR and current ICO guidance as at May 2026. Items in [SQUARE BRACKETS] are placeholders for you to confirm. Cookie names and durations are typical defaults — verify against your live site using a tool such as the ICO Cookie Audit or Cookiebot before publication. This document is not legal advice.
This Cookie Policy explains how Physiodemy Ltd ("Physiodemy", "we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on https://physiodemy.com (the "Site").
It should be read together with our Privacy Policy at https://physiodemy.com/privacy-policy/, which explains how we handle personal data more generally.
By using the Site, you accept the use of strictly necessary cookies (which require no consent under PECR). For all other categories, we ask for your active consent through the cookie banner that appears on your first visit. You can change your preferences at any time using the "Cookie settings" link in the Site footer.
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device (computer, tablet or phone) by a website you visit. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide information to the site owner.
We also use other similar technologies such as:
For brevity, we use the word "cookie" to cover all of these technologies.
We classify cookies into four categories, based on ICO guidance.
These cookies are essential for the Site to function. They cannot be disabled and do not require your consent under PECR.

Some cookies on our Site are set by third parties when their content (such as a video, payment form or analytics tracker) is loaded. We do not control these cookies. Each provider's own privacy and cookie policies apply:
We use first-party Vimeo embeds ("Do Not Track" mode) where supported, to limit Vimeo's data collection.
You can manage your cookie preferences in three ways.
When you first visit the Site, a banner asks you to Accept all, Reject all (non-essential), or Customise. Your choice is recorded for 12 months, after which we will ask again.
You can change your preferences at any time by clicking "Cookie settings" in the Site footer.
Most browsers let you view, manage and delete cookies. Visit your browser's help pages for instructions:
Be aware that disabling strictly necessary cookies may stop the Site working properly — for example, you may not be able to log in or complete a purchase.
You can opt out of Google Analytics across all sites by installing the official Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Some browsers transmit "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals. There is no industry consensus on how DNT signals should be interpreted. We currently do not respond to DNT signals separately from your cookie-banner choices.
We may update this Policy as our use of cookies changes or to reflect updated guidance from the ICO. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent change. We will re-prompt you for consent if we add new categories of non-essential cookie that materially change the way we process your data.
