If a website does not use cookies, it will think you are a new visitor every time you move to a new web page. It is possible for you to block some or all cookies, or even to delete cookies.
We use cookies on pupilpathways.com (“Our Website”) to help us understand how our Website is being used and to develop it with a view to providing our Website visitors with a better experience. A cookie is a computer file that is sent by a web server to a web browser when someone logs onto a website. Cookies are stored by a visitor’s browser – e.g. Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari – until they automatically expire or until they are deleted by the website visitor.
The information collected by the cookies is sent back to the web server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify and track how the web browser is using our Website.
We use cookies to:
- Authenticate Login Details through Google/Microsoft

The cookies we use allow us to understand things such as which pages a visitor views, for how long and how a visitor came to our Website (from which source e.g. Google, Twitter, Facebook). They cannot identify a specific person’s identity. They only collect anonymous data about how a person is using our Website.
If you are concerned about allowing cookies to be stored on your browser, even temporarily, most browsers now recognise when a cookie is offered and will permit you to refuse or accept them.
You can, by default, set your browser to permanently block cookies from any website from being placed on your browser, but doing this may cause some functionality to be lost and the website may not look as intended in your browser.
