What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They store information that helps websites function, remember preferences and analyse usage. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels and local storage objects that can access or store data on your device in comparable ways.
These files can contain details such as a unique identifier, the pages you viewed, the time spent on those pages and any preferences you selected. They do not contain personal information such as your name or address unless you have provided that information directly.
Why scoopglixfy Uses Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies to deliver the reporting and media resource services offered on this site. This includes enabling story coverage tools, studio segment management, camera setup guidance, lighting configuration resources and organised digital workflow features. Without these technologies many core functions would not operate correctly.
Cookies also help us understand how visitors interact with the platform so we can maintain and improve the service for users based in the United Kingdom.
Categories of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the site to function. They enable basic features such as page navigation, access to secure areas and the operation of the contact form. The site cannot function properly without them and they are always active.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember choices you make such as display preferences or workflow settings. They improve your experience by remembering previous interactions with camera setup guides or lighting resources.
Analytics or Performance Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use the site. They help us understand which sections receive the most attention, such as entertainment media resources or digital workflow pages, allowing us to optimise performance.
Advertising or Targeting Cookies
Although this site does not run behavioural advertising, certain third-party providers may use cookies for limited targeting related to media resources. These are only activated with your consent.
Social-Media Cookies
If embedded social features are present they may use cookies to track sharing activity. No such features are currently active on this platform.
First-Party Versus Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by scoopglixfy and relate to our own domain. Third-party cookies are set by external providers such as analytics services that support our reporting and media tools. We only work with providers that comply with UK data protection standards.
Session Versus Persistent Cookies
Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them. Most of our functional cookies are persistent with durations ranging from 30 days to 24 months depending on their purpose.
Data Handled and Purpose of Each Category
Strictly necessary cookies handle session identifiers and security tokens to keep the site operational. Functional cookies store user-selected preferences for workflow tools. Analytics cookies record aggregated usage statistics such as page views and session duration. No category stores sensitive personal data.
Consent or Exemption Basis Under UK Law
Strictly necessary cookies operate under the strict necessity exemption of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations. All other categories require your consent in line with the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018. You can withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

How the Consent Manager Works
When you first visit the site a banner appears allowing you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can change your choices at any time by revisiting the banner through the site footer. Withdrawing consent immediately stops the relevant cookies from operating on future visits.
Browser-Level Controls
Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through settings. Disabling cookies may prevent access to certain features such as saved workflow preferences or the contact form submission process. We recommend reviewing your browser help section for specific instructions.
International Transfers
Some third-party providers may transfer data outside the United Kingdom. Where this occurs we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses. Further details appear in our Privacy Policy which can be accessed from the site footer.
