Cookie Policy

Last updated: 26 July 2026

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to the website owner about how the site is used. Cookies do not typically contain information that directly identifies you by name, but they can be used to recognise your browser or device across visits.

Similar technologies, such as pixels, tags and local storage, may also be used alongside cookies for the same broad purposes described in this policy.

2. How We Use Cookies

BrainVista Tutors uses cookies to keep our website running smoothly, to understand how visitors find and use our pages, and — where you have given consent — to help us present relevant information about our tuition services. We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal information.

In practice, this means cookies help us remember choices you’ve made on our site, measure which pages and blog articles are most useful to parents, and understand broadly how visitors move from browsing our content to booking a free assessment. This information helps us improve the website over time.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use the following broad categories of cookies on our website.

  • Essential cookies — necessary for core website functionality, such as navigation, form submission, and remembering your cookie preference. These cannot be switched off.
  • Analytics cookies — used to understand how visitors interact with our website, such as which pages are viewed and how long visitors stay, helping us improve content and navigation.
  • Marketing cookies — used, where consent is given, to measure the effectiveness of our marketing and to present relevant messaging about our tuition services on other websites.

4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can control and manage cookies in several ways. Most web browsers allow you to view, delete and block cookies through their settings menu, and you can usually choose to block cookies from specific sites, block third-party cookies only, or clear all cookies whenever you close your browser. Instructions for managing cookies vary by browser and are typically available in the browser’s help documentation.

Please note that blocking essential cookies may affect the functionality of our website, for example by preventing forms from submitting correctly or preferences from being remembered between visits. Where a cookie consent banner is active on our site, you can update your preferences at any time through that tool, and you will generally be able to withdraw consent for analytics and marketing cookies as easily as you gave it.

5. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our website may be placed by third-party services we use, such as video calling platforms, website analytics providers, or embedded content like maps or videos. These third parties may use cookies in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review on their respective websites, as BrainVista Tutors does not control how third parties use the data collected through their own cookies.

We aim to work only with reputable providers who are transparent about their data practices, such as analytics and website hosting providers. These third parties may set their own cookies in line with their own privacy and cookie policies.

6. Changes to This Policy

We may update this cookie policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in the law, or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date, and where changes are significant we will take reasonable steps to make this clear, for example through a notice on our homepage.
