Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies are used on Positive Cyber Solutions’ websites and training platform (the “Website”), what they do, and the choices you have.

This Cookie Policy applies to our main website (positivecybersolutions.co.uk) and our training platform (PCS Training hosted via LearnWorlds). Because the sites use different providers, the exact cookies used can differ depending on which site you are using.

We do not use cookies for advertising or marketing. On our main website (positivecybersolutions.co.uk), we do not use cookies for analytics; however, our hosting provider may set essential cookies for security, session management, and website performance. On PCS Training (LearnWorlds), cookies are used to provide the platform (for example, login, security, course playback, and saving preferences) and, where enabled within the platform, optional analytics cookies may be used in an aggregated way to help us improve the training experience.

Registered address: Severn House, Hazell Drive, Newport, NP10 8FY

Email: info@positivecybersolutions.co.uk

2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website can place on your device. They help websites remember your actions and preferences (for example, keeping you signed in, remembering your cookie choices, and helping pages load securely).

3. Cookies we use and why

We use the following categories of cookies:

Strictly necessary cookies – required for the Website to function (for example, security, login, and remembering your cookie preferences). Disabling these cookies may affect how the Website works.

Optional cookies (analytics) – where enabled (primarily within PCS Training / LearnWorlds), these help us understand how the Website is used so it can be improved. Positive Cyber Solutions does not use analytics for profiling, advertising, or marketing. Any analytics information is used in an aggregated way.

We do not use marketing/targeting cookies.

4. Cookie list

Below is a list of cookies that may be set when you use the Website. The table reflects common cookies we see on PCS Training (LearnWorlds). On our main website, essential cookies may be set by our hosting provider (IONOS) and may change over time.

Please note: this cookie table is not exhaustive. Cookies and similar technologies may change over time due to provider updates, configuration changes, security requirements, or platform functionality updates. The most up-to-date view of cookies set on your device is available via your browser settings and, where provided, the Website’s cookie banner/settings tool.

In addition, the following third-party services may set cookies if they are used on the Website:

Payment processing (Stripe and PayPal) – used to process payments securely when you make a purchase on our websites. These providers may set cookies or use similar technologies for fraud prevention and payment processing.

LearnWorlds platform cookies (PCS Training only) – our PCS Training platform is delivered using LearnWorlds. Cookies may be used for login, security, remembering your preferences, and supporting course/video playback.

Third-party cookies are controlled by the relevant third party, and their operation may be subject to that provider’s own privacy and cookie policies. Where required, and where the Website/platform provides a cookie banner or consent tool, you will be asked to consent before any optional cookies are placed. Please note that blocking certain cookies (particularly strictly necessary cookies) may affect Website functionality such as logging in, payments, or course access.

5. Google Search Console

We use Google Search Console to monitor how our websites appear in Google Search and to help us identify technical issues (for example, broken pages or mobile usability issues). Google Search Console is a reporting tool for website owners and does not require us to place analytics cookies on your device.

6. Your choices (consent and controls)

Where a cookie banner/settings tool is available on the Website you are using, you can accept or reject optional cookies via that tool and update your choices later (where provided).

Strictly necessary cookies are required for the Website to function (for example, login and security) and will still be used even if you reject optional cookies.

7. Managing cookies in your browser

Most web browsers allow you to delete or block cookies through your settings. If you block all cookies, some parts of the Website may not work properly (for example, signing in, purchasing a course, or saving your preferences).

8. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time (for example, if the platform changes the cookies it uses, providers change, or we update functionality). Any changes will be published on this page, and the “Last updated” date will be revised. We recommend that you review this policy periodically so you remain aware of how cookies are used on the Website.

9. Contact us

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy or cookie settings on the Website, please contact us at info@positivecybersolutions.co.uk. For requests relating to your personal data rights, please refer to the contact details in our Privacy Policy.
