This Cookie Policy explains how BCNC LIMITED ("BCNC", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at bcnc.pro (the "Website"). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which provides further information about how we collect, use, and protect personal data.
BCNC LIMITED is a United Kingdom company providing advertising, public relations, and creative brand strategy services. Our registered office is at 9 Court Farm Road, Hove, BN3 7QR, United Kingdom. If you have questions about this Cookie Policy or our use of cookies, please contact us at management@bcnc.pro or by telephone on +44 7456 789012.
We are committed to using cookies in a transparent and lawful manner, in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation, the Data Protection Act 2018, the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (as amended), and guidance issued by the Information Commissioner's Office.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide information to website owners. Cookies may be "session" cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent" cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as:
For simplicity, this Cookie Policy refers to all of the above as "cookies" unless a distinction is necessary.
We use cookies for a number of legitimate purposes connected with operating an agency website and, where permitted, supporting our marketing and business development activities. These purposes include:
We do not use cookies to collect information that directly identifies you unless you have voluntarily provided such information through forms or account features, or unless a cookie is linked to information you have submitted and we describe that linkage in our Privacy Policy.
We classify cookies on the Website into the categories below. The exact cookies in use may change from time to time as we update the Website, analytics tools, or integrated services. We will keep this policy updated to reflect material changes.
These cookies are essential for the operation of the Website. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, access to secure areas, load balancing, and storage of your cookie consent preferences. The Website cannot function properly without these cookies, and they are typically set only in response to actions you take, such as setting privacy preferences or completing forms.
Because these cookies are necessary for the provision of the Website, they do not require your consent under UK law. However, we still inform you about them in this policy for transparency.
Examples of activities supported by strictly necessary cookies include:
Functional cookies allow the Website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalised features. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.
Functional cookies may be used to:
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Website by collecting and reporting information, often in aggregated or pseudonymised form. These cookies allow us to measure and improve the performance of our site, identify popular pages, diagnose technical issues, and evaluate user journeys.
We may use analytics services such as privacy-oriented or mainstream web analytics platforms. Information collected may include pages visited, time spent on pages, referral source, general geographic region, device type, browser type, and interactions with site elements. Where possible, we configure analytics tools to minimise the collection of identifiable data and to honour your consent choices.
Analytics cookies are non-essential and, where required by law, are placed only after you have given your consent through our cookie banner or preference centre.
Marketing cookies may be set through the Website by our advertising partners or by us. They may be used to build a profile of your interests and to show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They work by uniquely identifying your browser and device. They may also be used to measure the performance of advertising campaigns and to limit the number of times you see an advertisement.
As an advertising and public relations agency, BCNC may use these technologies in connection with our own business development activities, such as evaluating interest in our services or measuring engagement with BCNC campaigns. We do not deploy marketing cookies for client campaign delivery through this Website unless clearly identified and governed by separate client-facing terms.
Marketing cookies are non-essential and are used only where permitted by law and, where required, after you have provided consent.
Some cookies are placed by BCNC and are known as "first-party" cookies. Others are placed by service providers or partners that provide functionality, analytics, security, or advertising services on our behalf. These are known as "third-party" cookies. Third-party providers may process information about your use of the Website in accordance with their own privacy policies.
We seek to work only with reputable providers and to implement appropriate contractual safeguards where they process personal data on our behalf. However, we do not control third-party cookies once they are placed, and you should review the relevant provider's documentation for further details about retention, cross-site tracking, and international transfers.
Where cookies process personal data, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases under UK data protection law:
You may withdraw consent for non-essential cookies at any time by adjusting your preferences through our cookie settings tool or by changing your browser settings. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
When you first visit the Website, you will be presented with a cookie banner or preference centre that allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences by category. We do not use non-essential cookies subject to consent requirements until you have made an active choice, except where narrowly permitted by applicable law.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by:
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of the Website and your user experience. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled through our site controls without impairing core functionality.
Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can usually configure your browser to block cookies, alert you when cookies are being sent, or delete existing cookies. The method for doing so varies by browser and device. You should consult your browser's help documentation for instructions.
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" feature. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how organisations should respond to Do Not Track signals. At present, the Website does not alter its behaviour solely on the basis of a Do Not Track signal, but we honour applicable consent requirements and provide controls described in this policy.
On mobile devices, you may also be able to limit tracking through operating system settings, such as resetting advertising identifiers or opting out of personalised advertising where available.
Cookies remain on your device for differing periods depending on whether they are session or persistent cookies and on the settings applied by us or the relevant provider. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or until you delete them.
We aim to apply proportionate retention periods. Analytics cookies may persist for periods commonly ranging from twenty-four hours to twenty-four months depending on configuration. Marketing cookies may persist for similar periods unless a shorter duration is selected. Details of specific cookie durations may be listed in our cookie preference centre or supplemental cookie table where maintained.
Information collected through cookies may constitute personal data if it relates to an identified or identifiable individual. Where that is the case, our Privacy Policy describes the categories of personal data we process, how we use it, who we share it with, international transfer safeguards, and your rights under UK data protection law.
Depending on your circumstances, you may have the right to access your personal data, request rectification or erasure, restrict or object to certain processing, request data portability, and lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office. To exercise your rights, contact management@bcnc.pro. We will respond within the timeframes required by law.
Some third-party cookie providers may process data outside the United Kingdom. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we implement appropriate safeguards as required by UK data protection law, such as UK adequacy regulations, approved contractual clauses, or other lawful transfer mechanisms. Further information is available in our Privacy Policy.
BCNC may design, deploy, or manage websites, landing pages, media campaigns, and digital assets for clients that use cookies and tracking technologies independently of bcnc.pro. Those properties are governed by the client's privacy and cookie notices and by contractual arrangements between BCNC and the client. This Cookie Policy applies only to the BCNC Website unless we expressly state otherwise.
Where BCNC acts as a processor in connection with client campaigns, cookie deployment and consent mechanisms are implemented in accordance with client instructions and applicable law. Clients remain responsible for determining the lawful basis for processing and for providing appropriate notices to their audiences, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our practices. When we make material changes, we will post the updated policy on the Website and, where required, refresh your consent choices. The date at the top of the policy indicates when it was last revised.
We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically so that you remain informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The following table provides a non-exhaustive overview of cookies and similar technologies that may be used on the Website. Specific names, providers, and durations may change as we update our technology stack. For the most current list, please refer to our cookie preference centre where available.
Where a cookie name or provider is updated, we will map the new technology to the relevant category described in this policy and update our consent management approach accordingly.
This Cookie Policy forms part of a suite of legal and privacy documents published by BCNC. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, and Terms and Conditions. In the event of any inconsistency between this Cookie Policy and the Privacy Policy regarding the description of personal data processing through cookies, the more specific description in this Cookie Policy shall prevail for cookie-related matters, while the Privacy Policy governs broader data protection practices.
Employees, contractors, and agency partners who administer the Website or configure tracking technologies on behalf of BCNC must follow internal data governance procedures and client instructions. Configuration changes that affect cookie deployment must be documented and reviewed for compliance with consent requirements before release to production environments.
BCNC monitors developments in UK and European regulatory guidance relating to cookies, consent, and online tracking. We aim to align our practices with recognised best practice, including providing clear information before non-essential cookies are set, offering granular choices where appropriate, and maintaining records of consent where required. We review our cookie inventory periodically and remove technologies that are no longer necessary for our stated purposes.
If you are a client engaging BCNC to build or manage digital properties on your behalf, we can advise on cookie categorisation, consent management integration, and privacy notice drafting as part of our professional services. Such advisory work is subject to separate contractual terms and does not alter the scope of this Cookie Policy, which applies specifically to bcnc.pro unless otherwise agreed in writing.
