Cookie Policy

Last updated: 11 November 2025

1. Introduction

Charity Connector uses cookies and local storage to ensure the secure and proper functioning of the platform. We do not use tracking, advertising, or analytics cookies.

2. Cookies Used

We use only essential session cookies, which:

• Keep you logged in securely while using the site.
• Automatically expire when you log out or your session times out (after 30 minutes).

These cookies are necessary for the site to function and do not require consent under UK GDPR.

3. hCaptcha

We use hCaptcha on our contact form to protect the site from spam and abuse. hCaptcha sets only essential cookies required to:

• Verify that form submissions come from real users.
• Provide necessary security functions.
• Prevent fraudulent or automated activity.

hCaptcha does not use advertising or tracking cookies when used in its “security-only” mode, which is how it is implemented on Charity Connector.

4. Local Storage

We use your browser’s local storage to remember interface preferences, such as which columns you’ve chosen to view in the donations table. This data stays on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.

5. Managing Cookies

Most browsers allow you to manage or delete cookies. If you disable essential cookies, you may be unable to log in or use the site properly.

6. Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy occasionally to reflect changes in functionality or regulation. The “Last updated” date above will always show the latest version.
