Cookie Policy

Last updated: Version 1.0

MRCEM Mastery uses cookies and similar technologies on mrcemmastery.com and our learning platform. This policy explains what we use, why we use it, and how you can control non-essential cookies in line with UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites work, remember preferences, and—only with your consent—support analytics and marketing measurement.

How we use cookies

Strictly necessary (essential) cookies — always on

These cookies are required for the platform to function. They cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as signing in or saving your cookie choice.

Examples include:

• Authentication and session security
• Load balancing and fraud prevention
• Remembering your cookie consent preferences

Analytics cookies — opt in

If you consent, we use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use our website so we can improve content, navigation and performance. These cookies collect aggregated usage information.

Marketing cookies — opt in

If you consent, we may use marketing technologies (such as Meta Pixel) to measure advertising effectiveness and deliver more relevant campaigns. These cookies may track visits across pages and sites.

We do not load analytics or marketing scripts until you opt in through our cookie banner or cookie settings.

Your choices

When you first visit, you can:

• Accept all — enable analytics and marketing cookies
• Reject non-essential — only essential cookies remain active
• Cookie settings — choose categories individually

You can change your mind at any time using Cookie settings in the site footer or account menu.

Legal basis

• Essential cookies: legitimate interests / strictly necessary for the service you request
• Analytics and marketing cookies: your consent (PECR Regulation 6)

You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

Third-party providers

Where enabled with your consent, third-party providers may process technical data under their own privacy policies. Configuring tracking in our admin tools does not override your right to refuse non-essential cookies.

Retention

Consent preferences are stored locally on your device. If you are signed in, we also store your preferences against your account so they apply across devices.
