Beach Lifeguards uses cookies to improve your experience on this site. This policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use, what happens when third parties set them, and how you can control or remove them.
What cookies do on this site
A cookie is a small text file stored by your browser when you visit a website. It lets the site recognise your device on return visits. Cookies can remember your preferences, keep you logged in, or help site owners understand how people use their pages.
We set cookies to remember choices you make—such as whether you have accepted this notice—and to distinguish one visit from another for basic traffic analysis. No cookie on this site identifies you personally.
Cookies we set directly
The portal places a small number of first-party cookies when you browse:
- Consent record — stores whether you have acknowledged this cookie notice, so the banner does not reappear every time you load a page.
- Session identifier — a temporary token that keeps your browsing session consistent as you move between pages. It expires when you close your browser.
These cookies contain no personal data and cannot track you across other websites.
Third-party scripts and their cookies
Some features on this site—such as analytics or embedded content—are provided by external services. Those services may set their own cookies to measure performance or deliver their functionality.
Analytics: We use a web-analytics platform to understand which pages are visited most often and how long people stay. The service sets cookies to count visits and distinguish new users from returning ones. The data collected is aggregated and anonymous; we see numbers, not individuals.
Any third-party cookie is governed by that provider's own privacy policy, not by ours. We do not control what those scripts collect or how long their cookies persist.
Managing cookies in your browser
Every modern browser lets you block, delete or restrict cookies. The exact steps depend on which browser you use, but the controls are usually found in the settings or preferences menu under privacy or security.
You can refuse all cookies, accept only first-party cookies, or delete them after each session. Blocking cookies will not break this site, but some features—such as remembering that you have dismissed a notice—will stop working, and you may see the same messages repeatedly.
Instructions for the most common browsers are published on their support sites. Search for "manage cookies" plus the name of your browser to find the current guide.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy if the cookies we use change or if new regulations require it. When we make a material change, we will update the revision date at the foot of this page. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
If you have questions about how we use cookies, write to [email protected] and we will reply within 48 hours.
