Cookies Policy

Our Cookies Policy was last updated on 17 September 2026.

What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember actions and preferences over time. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels and local storage that can store or access information on your device. These tools can record details such as your browser type, device identifiers, IP address, pages viewed and time spent on those pages. In the United Kingdom this practice is regulated by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations together with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. The practical result is that you receive a more tailored experience while we obtain data that helps maintain and improve the service.

Why dailynuxi Uses These Technologies

We employ cookies and similar tools to keep the site secure, remember your settings, measure performance and deliver relevant content. Without them certain features would stop working correctly. Analytics tools show which articles on innovation and technology attract the most attention, helping us refine our editorial choices. Advertising cookies allow us to fund free access to news by showing promotions that match reader interests. All uses are documented in later sections so you can understand exactly what information is collected and for what purpose.

Categories of Cookies We Deploy

Strictly necessary cookies enable core functions such as page navigation and access to secure areas. Functional cookies remember preferences like language or text size. Analytics or performance cookies collect aggregated statistics on how visitors move through the site. Advertising or targeting cookies track browsing behaviour across sessions to present personalised promotions. Social-media cookies may be present if third-party platforms are embedded, although we limit such embeddings. Each category has its own legal basis and retention period explained below.

First-Party Versus Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by dailynuxi and remain under our control. They handle login status, session continuity and basic analytics. Third-party cookies come from external providers such as measurement or advertising partners. These cookies can follow activity across multiple sites. We only permit third parties that have committed to UK GDPR standards. You can review the list of providers in the table section and adjust preferences through the consent banner present on every page.

Session Cookies Compared with Persistent Cookies

Session cookies disappear when you close the browser and are used for temporary tasks such as keeping you logged in during one visit. Persistent cookies stay on your device for a defined period or until manually deleted. Typical durations range from a few days for functional preferences to thirteen months for some analytics identifiers. Retention periods are chosen to balance user convenience against data minimisation principles required by UK law. After expiry the cookie is automatically removed or anonymised.

Data Handled and Specific Purposes by Category

Strictly necessary cookies store session identifiers and security tokens; their purpose is to prevent fraud and enable basic navigation. Functional cookies retain choices such as font size or collapsed menu states. Analytics cookies record page views, referral sources and device type to produce aggregate reports that never identify individuals. Advertising cookies capture interests inferred from visited innovation topics so that displayed promotions align with likely reader preferences. Social-media cookies, when present, may share limited data with platforms for share-button functionality. No category collects sensitive personal data without separate explicit consent.

Legal Basis for Each Category Under UK Rules

Strictly necessary cookies rely on the strict necessity exemption in PECR and do not require prior consent. All other categories obtain consent through the site-wide cookie banner before activation. Consent is recorded and can be withdrawn at any time. Where legitimate interests are claimed, such as fraud prevention, we balance those interests against your rights and provide easy opt-out mechanisms. International transfers of data collected by cookies are safeguarded by standard contractual clauses approved under UK GDPR; further detail appears in our Privacy Policy.

Providers, Purposes and Durations

The following list summarises the main cookies currently active. Strictly necessary: session identifier lasting until browser close, set by dailynuxi. Functional: preference storage for thirty days, set by dailynuxi. Analytics: page-view counter lasting thirteen months, provided by a measurement partner. Advertising: interest segment lasting twelve months, provided by demand-side platforms. Each entry shows category, provider, purpose and maximum retention so you can make informed decisions through the consent manager.

How the Consent Manager Operates and How to Change Choices

When you first visit the site a banner appears offering granular control over non-essential categories. Selecting accept all, reject all or customise records your decision. You may reopen the banner at any time via the footer link to review or alter selections. Withdrawing consent immediately disables the relevant cookies for future visits. Previous choices do not affect already collected anonymised statistics but stop further collection under the withdrawn category.

Browser-Level Controls and Consequences of Disabling Cookies

Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through settings menus. Blocking all cookies will prevent strictly necessary ones from functioning, causing login failures and broken navigation. Disabling analytics cookies reduces our ability to improve content relevance but does not stop core site operation. Disabling advertising cookies limits personalised promotions yet you will still see non-targeted advertising. These browser settings operate independently of the consent banner and may override prior choices.

International Transfers and Reference to the Privacy Policy

Some analytics and advertising providers process cookie data outside the United Kingdom. Transfers rely on UK-approved safeguards including standard contractual clauses. A full description of data handling, recipient categories and your rights under UK GDPR is contained in the separate Privacy Policy accessible from the footer. This Cookies Policy should be read together with that document for complete transparency.
