This page explains how Katanaspin uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on pugroyalty.co.uk, what information they collect, and how you can manage them. We keep this policy straightforward so you know exactly what happens when you visit our site.
Cookies in plain terms
A cookie is a small text file a website stores on your device when you visit. Katanaspin uses cookies to remember your preferences, keep you logged in between sessions, and understand how visitors use our content. Some cookies are essential for the site to function; others help us improve what we publish.
Cookies do not access files on your computer and cannot identify you personally unless you have provided personal information through a contact form or account registration. Most browsers accept cookies automatically, but you can change that setting at any time.
What we store and for how long
We categorise the cookies Katanaspin sets into three groups, each with a different purpose and lifespan.
| Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Session management, security, site functionality | Session or up to 12 months |
| Analytics | Visitor counts, page views, user journeys | Up to 24 months |
| Preference | Language choice, display settings | Up to 12 months |
Necessary cookies keep the site secure and allow you to navigate between pages without losing your session. We cannot disable these without breaking core functionality – they cover login state, form submissions, and basic security checks.
Analytics cookies tell us which pages get read, how long visitors stay, and where they arrive from. We use this data to decide what content is worth expanding and which sections need rewriting. You can opt out of analytics tracking through the consent banner or your browser settings.
Preference cookies remember choices you make about how the site displays – your chosen language, whether you prefer compact or expanded tables, and similar interface settings. Declining these means you will need to set your preferences again each time you visit.
Embedded third parties
Some pages on pugroyalty.co.uk embed content or scripts from organisations we do not control. When a page includes a YouTube video, a Twitter feed, or an advertising network's code, those third parties may set their own cookies on your device. Katanaspin does not have access to the data those cookies collect, and we cannot control how those organisations use it.
The third-party services most commonly present on our pages include analytics platforms, advertising networks, and social-media widgets. Each operates under its own privacy policy, and you should review those policies directly if you want to know what they track.
We work with established providers and avoid scripts from sources we cannot verify. Where a third-party cookie is not essential to the page's function, it requires your consent before it loads.
Declining without breaking the site
You can block or delete cookies through your browser at any time. Declining analytics and preference cookies will not stop you reading our content or reaching the operator's own site through our links. Blocking necessary cookies may prevent login, form submission, and other interactive features from working correctly.
Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data → choose "Block third-party cookies" or "Block all cookies".
Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data → choose "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" or set custom rules per site.
Safari: Preferences → Privacy → choose "Block all cookies" or "Prevent cross-site tracking".
Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data → toggle "Block third-party cookies" on.
Deleting cookies through your browser removes all stored data from that session, including login state and saved preferences. Most browsers also offer an incognito or private mode that does not store cookies after you close the window.
Updates
We review this cookie policy every six months and update it whenever we add a new third-party service or change how we handle visitor data. The date at the bottom of this page shows when the policy was last revised. Significant changes will be noted at the top of the page for 30 days after publication.
If you have questions about how Katanaspin uses cookies or want to request that we stop processing data from your visits, contact our editorial team at [email protected]. We will respond within 48 hours.
