Cookie Policy

Cookies, in plain English

Club Business runs a Europe-first business publication. We use a small set of cookies to keep the site stable. We use a few more to learn which guides earn your time. This page tells you what each one does. It also shows how you stay in control.

What each cookie actually does

We group every cookie into one of three buckets. No cookie tracks you across other sites. We do not sell what we collect.

Essential cookies

These keep the site working. They remember your cookie choice and guard each page request. We cannot turn them off. The site breaks without them.

Optional

Analytics cookies

These count visits and show which guides readers open most. The data is grouped. It never names you. It helps us shape the weekly briefing.

Optional

Preference cookies

These hold small choices. Think saved layout or a dismissed banner. They make a return visit smoother. You can clear them at any time.

Your choice

You stay in control

Optional cookies only run if you allow them. You can change your mind at any time. The steps on the right work in every major browser. Clearing our cookies will not lock you out of any free article.

We honour UK and EU consent rules by default. That fits our readers across the continent. We keep the choice simple.
