This policy explains how Unity Sailing LLP ("Unity Sailing", "we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on unitysailing.com.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We also use your browser's local storage, which works in a similar way. Some are needed for the site to work; others help us understand how the site is used so we can improve it.

Analytics (only with your consent)
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site — which pages are popular and how people find us. These cookies are only set if you choose Accept. Until then, Google receives limited, cookieless signals that don't identify you.

Google's use of this data is described in Google's privacy policy.
Third parties
When you pay online you're taken to Stripe, our payment provider, which sets its own cookies to process payments securely and prevent fraud. Pages may also include content from other services (such as maps or videos), which may set their own cookies under their own policies.
Managing your choices
You can change your mind at any time using the Change cookie settings button on this page. You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings — blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site, such as signing in, from working.
