This Cookie Policy was last updated on 19 October 2026 and applies to everyone who visits our website.
1. Introduction
Our website, https://heartlandfestival.co.uk ("the website"), uses cookies and similar technologies (for convenience, we call them all "cookies"). Some cookies are placed by us and some by third-party services we use. This policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use, and how you can control them.
This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
2. What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in your browser when you visit. It lets the website remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, the next time you come back. Similar technologies, such as local storage in your browser, scripts and pixels, work in a comparable way, and this policy covers them too.
3. How we use cookies
We group the cookies on our website by what they do:
- Essential (required) cookies – these are needed for the website to work properly and securely, for example to remember your cookie choices. They cannot be switched off, and we do not need your consent to use them.
- Functional cookies – these remember choices you make to give you a better experience. We only use these with your consent.
- Analytics cookies – these help us understand how visitors use our website, such as which pages are most popular, so that we can improve it. We only use these with your consent.
- Marketing cookies – these may be used to show you relevant content or advertising and to measure how well it works. We only use these with your consent.
- Media cookies – these are set by embedded content from other sites, such as videos, music players, maps or social media posts. We only load this content with your consent.
Where we use Google services, we use Google Consent Mode, which means Google's tags respect the choices you make in our cookie settings.
4. The cookies we use
The list below is generated automatically by our cookie consent tool and is kept up to date as our website changes. It shows each cookie, the third-party services involved, and what they are used for.
