This policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use on Lowikol.com, and the choices available to you. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to improve user experience, and to provide information to website operators. Cookies can be session-based (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent (stored for a set period).
The use of cookies in the UK is governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR). Under these rules, we are required to obtain your consent before placing any cookies that are not strictly necessary for the operation of the website.
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They do not require your consent under PECR. They are typically set in response to actions you take such as setting your cookie preferences or filling in forms.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |

| lwk_consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences so you are not asked again on every visit | 12 months |
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting information anonymously. This helps us improve the website's structure and content. These cookies are only placed if you consent via the cookie banner on this website.
We may use third-party analytics services for this purpose. If analytics cookies are active, information about your visits (such as pages viewed, duration, and general geographic region derived from IP address) may be processed by those services in accordance with their own privacy policies. No personally identifying information is collected through analytics cookies.
When you first visit Lowikol.com, a cookie consent banner appears at the bottom of the page. You can accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences by category. Your choice is stored in a cookie so you are not asked again on every visit.
You can change your preferences at any time by clearing the consent cookie from your browser settings and revisiting the site, which will trigger the banner again. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse all cookies or to be alerted when cookies are being sent. Refusing strictly necessary cookies may affect the functionality of this website.
For guidance on managing cookies in common browsers, visit the ICO's website at ico.org.uk or your browser's help documentation.
If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us at [email protected] or write to us at 11 Stratford Rd, London W8 6RF. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk if you believe your rights under PECR or UK GDPR have not been respected.
We review this policy periodically and will update it to reflect any changes in our use of cookies or in applicable law.
