About this policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Driving School Help, operated by DSW Pro, uses cookies and similar technologies on drivingschoolhelp.co.uk. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

What cookies are

Cookies are small files stored on a computer, phone or other device when a website is visited. Similar technologies, including local storage, scripts and pixels, may also store information or recognise a device.

How we use cookies

  • Strictly necessary: to keep the website secure, maintain sessions, support account sign-in, process forms and provide features requested by users.
  • Preferences: to remember choices such as login status, display settings and directory preferences.
  • Performance and analytics: to understand how the website is used, identify faults and improve pages, searches and services.
  • Third-party services: to support features such as Google or Facebook sign-in, payment services, maps, embedded content and externally hosted forms.

Technologies used by our services

WordPress and Directorist may use cookies for account sessions, authentication, listings, claims, reviews, enquiries, chat, saved searches and other directory functions. Payment, social sign-in, mapping, security and embedded-form providers may set their own cookies when their services are used.

Third-party providers control their own technologies and explain their use in their respective privacy and cookie information.

Consent and essential cookies

Strictly necessary technologies may be used without consent where they are required to provide a service requested by the user or to keep the service secure. Where consent is legally required for optional technologies, they should not be activated until the user has made a choice through the available consent controls.

Consent can be withdrawn or changed through the website’s cookie controls where available. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before withdrawal.

Managing cookies

Most browsers allow users to view, block or delete cookies through their privacy settings. Blocking essential cookies may prevent account sign-in, forms, payments or other website features from working correctly.

Instructions are normally available in the browser’s help or privacy settings. Users can also adjust permissions offered by relevant third-party services.

How long cookies remain

Some cookies last only for the current browsing session. Others remain for a defined period or until deleted. Duration depends on the purpose and provider. We aim to keep cookie use and retention proportionate and review the technologies used on the website.

Personal information

Where information collected through cookies identifies or can be linked to a person, it is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable UK data-protection law.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when our website, providers or legal requirements change. The latest version and its updated date will be published on this page.
