Cookie Notice
This notice explains how TUSIC’s website uses cookies and similar technologies, why they may be used and how you can manage your preferences.
Your preferences
Manage your cookie choices
You should be able to accept, reject or customize non-essential cookies without losing access to ordinary website content.
01
Overview
This Cookie Notice explains how [FULL LEGAL NAME OF TUSIC ENTITY] uses cookies and related technologies on tusics.org.
It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more generally.
The cookies used by this website may change as WordPress, plugins, forms, security services or embedded content change.
02
What cookies are
A cookie is a small data file that a website asks your browser to store on your computer, phone or other device.
Cookies can help a website remember preferences, maintain a session, protect forms, understand website use or provide integrated third-party functionality.
First-party cookies
These are placed by the TUSIC website or its directly controlled domain.
Third-party cookies
These are placed or accessed by another organization, such as an analytics, video, mapping, social-media, security or payment provider.
Session cookies
These generally expire when you close your browser or end a session.
Persistent cookies
These remain for a defined period or until removed through your browser or device controls.
03
Similar technologies
This notice also applies, where relevant, to technologies that store or access information on a device or recognize a browser, including:
- Local and session storage.
- Pixels, tags and web beacons.
- Software development kits.
- Device, browser or advertising identifiers.
- Embedded scripts and content.
- Server logs and similar technical records.
04
Categories of cookies
These support essential functions such as website security, network management, form protection, load balancing and remembering cookie choices.
Where an applicable legal exemption exists, these may operate without optional consent because the requested service cannot function properly without them.
These remember non-essential choices such as language, display settings or enhanced functionality.
These help measure website visits, page performance and general usage patterns so TUSIC can improve the website.
Video, maps, social posts and other external content may set cookies or collect information when loaded.
These may build profiles, measure campaigns or track activity across services. TUSIC should not use them unless there is an approved purpose, appropriate notice and valid consent.
05

06
Third-party services and embedded content
Some website features may be supplied by third parties. If active, these providers may receive technical information such as your IP address, browser details and the page visited.
Potential examples include:
- Analytics and website-performance services.
- Video, audio, map and social-media embeds.
- Spam prevention and CAPTCHA providers.
- Donation or payment services.
- Email-subscription and event platforms.
Where practical, optional third-party content should be blocked until the visitor has made an appropriate cookie choice.
List each third-party provider, link to its privacy information and explain whether information may be processed outside the visitor’s country.
07
Consent and cookie choices
Where consent is required, TUSIC should not activate non-essential cookies until you make an affirmative choice.
The cookie interface should allow you to:
- Accept all optional cookies.
- Reject all optional cookies as easily as accepting them.
- Select individual categories.
- Continue using ordinary content after rejecting optional cookies.
- Change or withdraw your choice later.
Withdrawing consent does not necessarily delete information already collected. It should prevent future optional collection through those technologies.
08
Browser and device controls
Most browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies. Instructions differ by browser and device, so consult your browser’s current help documentation.
Browser settings operate separately from the website’s cookie-consent tool. Deleting cookies may also delete the record of your preference, causing the banner to appear again.
09
What happens if cookies are disabled?
Rejecting optional cookies should not prevent you from reading ordinary website content.
Blocking strictly necessary technologies through browser settings may affect security, forms, preference storage or other essential functionality.
Embedded media may remain unavailable until the relevant category is enabled.
10
Do Not Track and browser privacy signals
Some browsers send Do Not Track, Global Privacy Control or similar preference signals.
TUSIC should assess which signals it is legally required or technically able to recognize and should not claim support until that behaviour has been tested.
State whether the selected consent-management system recognizes Global Privacy Control or other browser signals after testing it on the production website.
11
Updates to this notice
TUSIC may update this notice when website technologies, providers, purposes, legal requirements or retention periods change.
The cookie inventory should be rescanned regularly and after installing or changing plugins, embedded services, analytics, advertising or payment tools.
If the purpose of optional cookies materially changes, TUSIC should consider whether renewed consent is required.
