Cookies Policy

Last updated: 19 September 2026

This Cookies Policy explains how storyrixnu uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. As a United Kingdom based provider of professional media feed services including video operation, live signal management, content distribution, camera work and high quality feeds for news and broadcasting, we are committed to complying with the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).

What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They can store or access information such as your preferences, browsing behaviour and device details. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels and local storage. These tools help websites function, remember choices and gather usage data. They do not contain personal information unless you provide it or they are linked to other data we hold.

Why the Site Uses Cookies

We use cookies to ensure the website operates reliably, to remember user settings where appropriate, to understand how visitors interact with our services and to support the delivery of professional media feed content. Without certain cookies our live signal management tools and content distribution features may not work correctly.

Categories of Cookies We Use

We categorise cookies as strictly necessary, functional, analytics or performance, advertising or targeting and social media. Each category serves a distinct purpose and is governed by different legal bases under UK law.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function. They enable core features such as page navigation, access to secure areas and the operation of our contact form. They are set in response to actions you take and do not require consent under PECR because they are strictly necessary. Examples include session identifiers that maintain your connection while browsing media feed resources.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember choices you make such as language preferences or display settings. They improve your experience when returning to the site. These cookies are used only when you have given consent through our cookie banner. They are first party cookies that expire after a maximum of twelve months.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

Analytics cookies collect information about how visitors use the site, such as which pages are viewed most often and any error messages encountered. This helps us improve the reliability of our video operation and live signal management services. We obtain consent before setting these cookies. Data is retained for a maximum of twenty six months before automatic deletion.

Advertising or Targeting Cookies

We do not currently set advertising or targeting cookies. Should this change we will update this policy and obtain consent before any such cookies are placed.

Social Media Cookies

We do not embed social media plugins or set social media cookies. Any future integration would require explicit consent and would be clearly described in this section.

First Party versus Third Party Cookies

First party cookies are set by storyrixnu and can only be read by our domain. Third party cookies are set by external providers such as analytics services. We currently limit third party cookies to essential analytics providers that have been vetted for compliance with UK data protection requirements.

Session versus Persistent Cookies

Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them. Necessary cookies are mostly session based while functional and analytics cookies are persistent with retention periods stated above.

Data Handled and Purpose of Each Category

Necessary cookies handle minimal data such as session identifiers to keep the site operational. Functional cookies store preference values to remember settings. Analytics cookies record aggregated usage statistics including page views and referral sources. No category collects sensitive personal data without separate notice.

Consent or Exemption Basis

Strictly necessary cookies rely on the exemption from consent under PECR. All other categories require your consent which is obtained via the site wide cookie banner. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

Cookie Providers and Durations

The following providers are used: our own domain for necessary and functional cookies with durations up to twelve months; a single analytics provider for performance cookies retained for up to twenty six months. Full details of each cookie name, provider, category and expiry are listed in the consent manager interface.

How the Consent Manager Works

Our cookie banner allows you to accept all cookies, reject non essential cookies or manage preferences by category. Choices are stored for twelve months. You can reopen the manager at any time via the footer link to change or withdraw consent. Rejecting cookies may limit some interactive features.

Browser Level Controls

Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through settings. Disabling necessary cookies will prevent core functions such as form submission and may cause errors when accessing media feed resources. Instructions for popular browsers are available on their support sites.

International Transfers

Some analytics providers may transfer data outside the United Kingdom. Appropriate safeguards such as UK approved standard contractual clauses are in place. Please refer to our separate Privacy Policy for further details on international transfers.

Policy Changes

We may update this Cookies Policy to reflect changes in technology or law. The latest version will always be posted on this page with a new last updated date. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
