Cookies Policy

Last updated: 16 September 2026

This Cookies Policy explains how momentiko uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. As a provider of specialised courses in live production decks and control rooms, including multi-camera switching, live broadcasting techniques, real-time video operation, and professional management of television and streaming productions, we operate in compliance with UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). This policy details our practices to ensure transparency for visitors in the United Kingdom.

What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They store information such as preferences, login status, or browsing behaviour. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, and local storage that can access or store data on your device. These tools help websites function efficiently but can also track user interactions across sessions.

Why the Site Uses Cookies

We use cookies to deliver our educational content effectively. This includes remembering your course selections, ensuring secure access to training materials on live production techniques, and analysing how visitors engage with information about control room operations and broadcasting workflows. Without these technologies, core features like form submissions for course enquiries would not operate smoothly.

Categories of Cookies We Use

Our cookies fall into several categories. Strictly necessary cookies enable basic site functions such as navigation and access to secure course registration areas. Functional cookies remember your preferences, like language or display settings for video demonstration pages. Analytics or performance cookies gather data on site usage to improve content about real-time video operation. Advertising or targeting cookies may personalise promotions for our specialised training programmes. Social-media cookies facilitate sharing of course information if integrated features are present.

First-Party Versus Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by momentiko and relate to our own domain for managing course enrolments and user sessions. Third-party cookies come from external providers, such as analytics services or video hosting platforms, which assist in delivering content on live broadcasting techniques. These third parties may process data to support our operations but must adhere to strict contractual safeguards under UK data protection rules.

Session Versus Persistent Cookies and Retention

Session cookies exist only while your browser is open and are deleted when you close it, supporting temporary functions like maintaining a shopping cart for course materials. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period, ranging from a few days to two years depending on purpose. For example, analytics cookies may persist for 13 months to track long-term improvements in how we present information on television and streaming productions.

Data Handled and Purpose of Each Category

Strictly necessary cookies handle minimal data like session identifiers to allow access to control room simulation resources. Functional cookies store settings such as video player preferences. Analytics cookies collect aggregated information on page views and interaction times with content about multi-camera switching. Advertising cookies may process browsing history to show relevant course advertisements. Each category serves a distinct purpose aligned with delivering high-quality training without unnecessary data collection.

Consent or Exemption Basis for Each Category

Under PECR and UK GDPR, strictly necessary cookies operate on the basis of legitimate interests as they are essential for site functionality. Functional, analytics, advertising, and social-media cookies require your prior consent, which we obtain via our site-wide cookie banner. You can withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal. Exemptions apply only where cookies pose no risk to privacy.

Cookie or Provider Table

The following table summarises key cookies in use. Strictly necessary: session ID by momentiko, purpose site navigation, duration session. Analytics: _ga by Google Analytics, purpose performance measurement, duration 13 months. Functional: preference cookie by momentiko, purpose user settings, duration 6 months. Advertising: targeting ID by third-party ad network, purpose course promotion, duration 90 days. Full details are reviewed regularly to reflect current providers supporting our live production courses.

How the Consent Manager Works

Our consent manager appears as a banner on first visit, allowing you to accept all, reject non-essential, or customise choices by category. Changes can be made via a link in the footer at any time. Withdrawing consent stops further use of those cookies, though previously stored data may remain until expiry or manual deletion. This system ensures compliance with your preferences regarding data from interactions with broadcasting technique resources.

Browser-Level Controls and Consequences

Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through settings menus. Disabling all cookies may prevent access to personalised course dashboards or submission of contact forms for enquiries about real-time video operation training. Functional limitations include loss of saved preferences, while analytics data collection ceases. These controls operate independently of our consent banner but should be used alongside it for full effect.

International Transfers

Some third-party cookies may transfer data outside the UK to countries with different data protection standards. We rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses. For further details on these transfers and overall data handling, please refer to our Privacy Policy available on this site.
