Cookie Policy
Last updated: 26 June 2026
How Driving Instructors Plymouth uses cookies and similar technologies.
This policy explains how the Platform uses cookies and similar technologies, and how you can manage them. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. “Similar technologies” includes browser local storage and service workers, which the Platform also uses to function as an installable app (PWA).
2. The cookies we use
We use only strictly necessary and functional technologies. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party analytics.
| Name / type | Purpose | Category | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Session / authentication cookie | Keeps you securely signed in | Strictly necessary | Session |
dip_td (trusted device) | Remembers a device for two-factor authentication if you choose “remember this device” | Strictly necessary | Up to 30 days |
| CSRF / security token | Protects forms and sign-in against cross-site attacks | Strictly necessary | Session |
| Stripe cookies | Set by Stripe during payment to process payments and prevent fraud | Strictly necessary (third party) | Per Stripe |
| Service worker / local storage / cache | Lets the app load reliably, work offline, and remember in-app preferences (e.g. sidebar state) | Functional | Until cleared |
3. Do we need your consent?
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), strictly necessary cookies do not require consent, but you must still be told about them — which is the purpose of this policy. We do not currently use any non-essential cookies. If we later add analytics or advertising cookies, we will ask for your consent first through a cookie banner that lets you reject them as easily as accept them.
4. Managing cookies
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can clear the app’s stored data the same way. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the Platform (such as signing in) from working.
5. Changes and contact
We may update this policy as the Platform changes. Questions: hello@drivinginstructorsplymouth.com.
