This Cookie Policy explains how Phoenix Martial Arts Academy ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on this website.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies can also store or access information on your device, including scripts and local storage.

On this site, we use only limited browser or device storage needed for core site functionality and secure form handling.

2. What this site currently uses

This is a static HTML website. The public pages do not currently load:

  • Google Fonts
  • analytics tools
  • advertising or remarketing pixels
  • an embedded Google Maps widget
  • a third-party review feed or embedded review widget

The homepage reviews are displayed using local site data and on-site scripts. They are not pulled from a third-party review service at runtime.

3. Essential storage and security technologies

We currently use the following essential or security-related technologies:

  • Limited browser or device storage - used where needed for core site functionality, page state and secure form handling
  • Netlify Forms - to handle booking and contact form submissions
  • reCAPTCHA / Netlify spam protection - to help protect forms and reduce spam or abuse

When you use a form, Netlify and its spam-prevention tools may process technical information needed to keep the service secure.

4. On-site controls

The public pages do not currently use analytics, advertising or other non-essential embedded services, so there is no on-site cookie banner or preference centre.

If you want to control cookies or site storage, you can do so through your browser settings.

5. Browser controls

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies and site storage through browser settings. You can usually:

  • see what cookies or stored data are present
  • block cookies
  • delete stored data
  • set preferences for certain websites

Please note that blocking some storage technologies may affect parts of the site's form or page-state behaviour.

6. Third-party services

We use Netlify to host the website and handle forms. We also use reCAPTCHA / Netlify spam protection to help keep public forms secure.

Those providers may process technical information in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.

7. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The latest version will always be posted on this page with the date shown at the top.
