Our Website

This website is operated by Chasing the Stigma. Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our site.

Throughout our website we may link to other websites owned and operated by third parties to highlight services available to you. These other third-party websites may also use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own separate policies. For privacy information relating to these other third-party websites, please consult their policies as appropriate.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They help websites function efficiently, provide analytics, and enhance user experience.

There are three main types of cookies:

• Session cookies: specific to a particular visit and limited to sending session identifiers (random numbers generated by the server) so you don't have to re-enter information when you navigate to a new page or check out. Session cookies are not permanently stored on your device and are deleted when the browser closes.
• Persistent cookies: record information about your preferences and are stored in your browser cache or mobile device.
• Third party cookies: placed by someone other than us which may gather data across multiple websites or sessions.

We describe our use of cookies, including a detailed list of your information which we and others may collect through cookies, below.

For further information on cookies generally, including how to control and manage them, visit the guidance on cookies published by the UK Information Commissioner's Office, www.aboutcookies.org, or www.allaboutcookies.org.
