Cookie Policy

Last updated: 9 June 2026

This cookie policy explains how The Frank Bowling Foundation and the wider Frank Bowling Group (we, us, our) use cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read alongside our privacy notice, which explains how we process your personal data more generally.

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, and to provide information to the site’s owners. “Similar technologies” include pixels, tags, local storage and software development kits, which we refer to collectively as “cookies” in this policy.

Cookies may be set by us (“first-party cookies”) or by third parties whose services appear on our pages, such as analytics providers or embedded video and social media (“third-party cookies”). They may last only for your browsing session (“session cookies”) or remain on your device for a set period (“persistent cookies”).

We use cookies to keep our website working and secure, to remember your cookie preferences, and — where you agree — to understand how the site is used so we can improve it. We do not use cookies for advertising or to build marketing profiles.

Strictly necessary cookies do not require your consent. For all other categories, we rely on your consent, which you give through our cookie banner when you first visit the site. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time (see “Managing your cookies” below).

Strictly necessary Required for the website to function and to be secure, for example remembering your cookie consent choices and keeping the site available. These cannot be switched off through our banner. Consent not required.
Analytics / performance Help us understand how visitors use the site (for example which pages are viewed) so we can improve it. We may use Google Analytics for this. These run only with your consent. Consent required.
Functional Remember choices you make to give you enhanced features, such as embedded content from third parties. These run only with your consent. Consent required.

A detailed, up-to-date list of the individual cookies in use (including names and durations) is shown in our cookie preferences/consent tool, which we keep under review.

Some cookies are set by third parties when their content or services appear on our website. These third parties process your data under their own privacy and cookie policies, which we do not control. They may include:

  • Google Analytics — website analytics. See Google’s privacy policy and how it uses data from sites that use its services. You can opt out using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
  • Embedded media and social content — if we embed videos or social media posts (for example from Vimeo, YouTube or Instagram), the provider may set cookies when that content loads. Please refer to the relevant provider’s policies.
  • Our website platform — our site is provided by our platform supplier, which may set strictly necessary cookies to keep the site running and secure.

You can manage non-essential cookies at any time:

  • through our cookie banner or preferences tool on the website, where you can accept, decline or change your choices;
  • through your browser settings, which let you block or delete cookies. Guidance is usually available in your browser’s help section, and general information is available at aboutcookies.org.

Please note that if you block strictly necessary cookies, some parts of the website may not work as intended.

We may update this cookie policy from time to time. Any changes will appear on this page, as indicated by the “Last updated” date above. We encourage you to revisit this page periodically.

If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us by email at info@frankbowlingfoundation.org (mark your message “Privacy”) or by writing to Privacy, The Frank Bowling Foundation, 5A Peacock Yard, Iliffe Street, London SE17 3LH. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) if you are in the UK.
