The website needs a small number of essential technologies to work. Advertising technology is optional and waits for your permission.
Essential
The website’s keys
Session and security cookies keep you signed in, protect forms and remember your cookie choice. The site cannot provide core account functions without them.
Optional
Advertising ingredients
When Google AdSense is enabled, its script and related storage can load only after you choose to allow optional advertising technology.
Your control
Change the recipe
Use Cookie settings in the footer whenever you want to change your choice. You can also clear cookies in your browser.
01
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small piece of information stored by a website in your browser. Similar technologies can also store or read information on a device. Some are necessary for a requested service; others support measurement, personalisation or advertising.

03
Optional Google advertising technology
If the administrator enables Google AdSense and you choose “Allow optional cookies”, the website loads Google’s AdSense tag. Google may then use cookies or similar identifiers for advert delivery, fraud prevention, frequency control, measurement and—depending on your Google and consent settings—personalisation.
Choosing “Essential only” prevents the Reuse Kirklees advertising loader from contacting Google through configured ad placements. Non-personalised advertising can still require consent for storage and access technologies, so no Google ad requests are made before your choice.
04
Your choices are meant to be real
The banner offers an essential-only choice alongside the option to allow advertising. You can open the detailed settings before deciding, and change the decision later from the footer.
05
Browser controls
Most browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies. Blocking all cookies may sign you out, prevent secure forms from working and stop account features from remembering your session. Browser help pages explain the controls for your particular device.
This list should be reviewed whenever analytics, advertising, embedded media or other third-party services are added.
