Section 1
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your computer, phone, or tablet when you visit. They help the website recognise your device on return visits and remember certain information about your preferences or actions.
Cookies are widely used across the web to make websites function more reliably, to help website operators understand how visitors use their sites, and to offer a more consistent experience across visits. On their own, cookies do not contain personal data such as your name or email address unless you have provided that information separately.
You can manage or block cookies through your browser settings at any time. Please note that blocking certain cookies may affect how parts of this website function.
Section 2
Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
Always Active — Cannot Be DisabledThese cookies are necessary for the basic operation of the website. Without them, certain features — such as remembering your cookie consent choice — would not work. They do not collect personal information used for marketing purposes. These cookies cannot be switched off.
Examples: Cookie consent preference storage, session continuity.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website — for example, which pages are visited most often, how long visitors stay, and where they arrived from. The information collected is aggregated and does not identify individual visitors. This helps us improve the reading and navigational experience of the site.
Examples: Page view tracking, visit duration, navigation path.
Marketing Cookies
These cookies may be set by third-party services whose functionality is embedded on our site. They can be used to build a profile of your browsing interests and to show relevant content on other websites. We use them sparingly and only where they serve a legitimate communicative purpose related to our programmes.
Examples: Advertising reach tracking, referral source attribution.
Preference Cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you have made — such as your preferred reading view or any display settings — to provide a more consistent experience on return visits.
Examples: Display settings, region or language preferences.
Section 3
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on this website are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, and Senova does not control how those cookies operate. The third-party services we may use include:
- Google Analytics — for aggregated website usage data. Governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
- Google Maps — for the embedded map on our contact page. Governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
- Font providers — for loading our selected typefaces. No personal data is collected in the serving of fonts.
We do not use social media tracking pixels or advertising network cookies.
