Last updated: 28 October 2026
This policy explains how Phoenix Forge Ltd ("we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on phoenixforge.co.uk, in line with the 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. Some are essential for the site to work; others help us understand how the site is used or let us show content from other services, such as booking calendars and videos.
How we ask for consent
When you first visit, a banner lets you accept all optional cookies, reject them, or choose by category. Optional cookies are not set until you agree. Your choice is remembered for 6 months, and you can change it at any time using the button above or the "Cookie settings" link in the footer of every page.
