1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Marketplace secure and, where you choose, to understand how people use the site. This policy should be read with our Privacy Notice.

2. Essential cookies

Essential cookies are needed to provide a service you ask for. They cannot be switched off through our banner.

cs_session

Keeps a signed-in Casting Scotland account session secure. It is set only after sign-in and expires in line with the account session.

cs_cookie_consent

Records your analytics-cookie choice for up to 12 months. This lets us remember your preference.

3. Analytics cookies

With your consent, we use Google Analytics 4 to measure site use, such as pages visited and approximate usage patterns. Google Analytics may set cookies including _ga, _ga_[container-id] and _gid. These are not essential and are not loaded until you select “Accept analytics”.

We configure Google Analytics with IP anonymisation. We do not use Google Analytics to make decisions about you or to advertise to you through this Marketplace.

4. Your choices

You can accept or reject analytics cookies in the banner. You can change your choice at any time using the “Cookie settings” button shown on the site. Rejecting analytics prevents future Google Analytics loading and removes Google Analytics cookies that can be removed by this site. You can also delete cookies in your browser settings.

5. Changes and contact

We may update this policy when our cookie use changes. We will update the effective date and seek fresh consent where required. Questions: castings@castingscotland.co.uk.
