1. What these technologies are
Cookies are small files stored on your device. Websites can also use technologies such as browser local storage, session storage, pixels, tags and similar tools to store or access information on a device. In this policy we use “cookies” as a convenient term for these technologies where appropriate.
Honour uses a small amount of browser storage to operate the website, keep accounts secure, remember essential choices and allow an LPA application to continue correctly.
2. Necessary storage
Some storage is necessary for a service you request or for the website to operate securely. This can include:
- keeping you signed in to your Honour account;
- authentication and security information used to protect access to customer and admin areas;
- remembering application state so that your LPA journey can continue correctly;
- remembering that a completed application is waiting at checkout;
- keeping essential interface or session settings; and
- remembering your cookie preference so that we do not repeatedly ask you to make the same choice.
These necessary technologies are not used for unrelated advertising. Blocking them in your browser may stop sign-in, checkout or parts of the LPA application from working correctly.
3. Optional analytics and marketing
Optional technologies are not loaded merely because you visit the website. They are only switched on after you choose to allow them through the cookie controls, and you can allow analytics and marketing separately.
Analytics (off unless you allow it):
- the Google tag from Google, which helps us understand how the website is used; and
- a record, kept in your browser, of how you reached Honour (for example the website or advert you came from). We copy this onto your order so that we know where each order came from. It does not include your name or other personal details.
Marketing (off unless you allow it):
- the Meta Pixel from Meta (Facebook and Instagram);
- the Microsoft Advertising UET tag from Microsoft (Bing); and
- Google’s advertising features, through the Google tag.
These help us measure and improve our advertising. The companies that provide them may set their own cookies and may receive information such as your device, the pages you view and how you arrived. They do not run on staff, sign-in, account, application or checkout pages, where you enter personal details about yourself or other people.
4. Your choices
When you first visit the public website, the Honour cookie banner lets you Accept all, Reject all, or Manage cookies to choose analytics and marketing separately. Necessary storage remains available because it is required for the service and security.
Your preference is normally remembered for up to 180 days. You can change your choice at any time using the Cookie settings button shown on the website. If you turn a category off, we remove the cookies we can and reload the page without those tools.
You can also block or delete cookies and site data using your browser settings. If you delete Honour site data, you may be asked for your cookie choice again and may need to sign in again.
5. Service providers
Honour uses third-party technology providers to operate the service. For example, Supabase is used for parts of authentication, database and file-storage functionality, and Vercel is used to host and deliver the website. These services may process technical information necessary to provide, secure or deliver the service.
If you allow optional cookies, Google, Meta Platforms and Microsoft also act as providers for the analytics and marketing tools described in section 3, under their own privacy policies.
Our Privacy Policy explains more about how personal data is handled and the categories of service provider we use.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when the website, the technologies we use or applicable law changes. The latest version will always be published on this page and the “Last updated” date will be changed.
