Cookie Policy

Last updated: 6 September 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Quay Theatre Arts ("QTA", "we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on quaytheatrearts.co.uk. It should be read alongside our [Privacy Policy].

By continuing to use our website, you agree to our use of cookies in line with this policy, unless you've adjusted your settings to say otherwise.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit it. They help the website work properly, remember your preferences, and give us a general sense of how visitors use the site, so we can keep improving it.

Cookies aren't harmful and don't give us access to your device or personal files. Some are essential for the site to function, and others are optional and only used with your consent.

The cookies we use

Essential cookies

These are needed for the website to work properly, for example to remember your cookie preferences or to keep pages functioning correctly as you browse. Essential cookies don't require consent and can't be switched off through our cookie banner, though you can block them through your browser settings if you prefer (this may affect how the site works).

Analytics cookies: Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website, such as which pages are most popular and how people find us. This helps us improve the site for families looking for dance classes in Weymouth, Dorchester and Portland.

Google Analytics cookies collect information such as:

  • pages visited and time spent on the site

  • the general location and device you're browsing from

  • how you arrived at the site (for example, via a search engine or social media)

This information is collected anonymously and in aggregate. It isn't used to identify you personally. You can find out more about how Google handles this data in Google's Privacy Policy.

Advertising cookies: Meta (Facebook) Pixel

We use the Meta Pixel to understand how visitors interact with our site after clicking through from Facebook or Instagram, and to help us show relevant QTA adverts to people who may be interested in our dance classes.

The Meta Pixel may collect information such as:

  • pages you visit on our site

  • actions you take, such as submitting a contact or trial class enquiry form

  • your device and browser information

This helps us measure how well our adverts are working and reach parents in our area who are likely to be interested in QTA. You can find out more in Meta's Cookie Policy.

Managing your cookie preferences

When you first visit our website, you'll be shown a cookie banner where you can accept or reject non-essential cookies (analytics and advertising). You can change your preferences at any time by clearing your cookies and revisiting the site.

You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Every browser is different, so check the "Help" section of your browser for instructions, or visit aboutcookies.org for general guidance. Please note that blocking all cookies may affect how parts of our website work.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example if we start using a new tool or service on our website. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "last updated" date.
