Cookie Policy
Last Updated: March 18, 2026
This Cookie Policy supplements our Privacy Policy, which explains how Royal Mile Silver Ltd (“Royal Mile Silver”, “we”, “us”) handles personal data more broadly. This policy describes what cookies are, which categories we use on lumithra.cyou, and how you can manage your preferences at any time.
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you browse. They can help the site remember your preferences, maintain sessions, and measure performance. We also use similar technologies such as pixel tags and server-side event measurement. These technologies can function with or without cookies, depending on your browser settings and the implementation used.
We organise cookies into three categories that match the controls in our cookie banner and preference panel: Essential, Analytics, and Marketing. Analytics and Marketing cookies are optional and are only enabled when you opt in through our cookie controls.
Cookie lifespans and sources
Cookies may be session cookies or persistent cookies. Session cookies are removed when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain for a set period (for example, 90 days or 2 years) unless you delete them sooner.
Cookies can also be first-party or third-party. First-party cookies are set by our site (lumithra.cyou). Third-party cookies are set by service providers used for analytics or advertising measurement. When you accept Analytics or Marketing cookies, your browser may store identifiers from these providers, which can be used for measurement and attribution.
Cookie categories we use
1) Essential cookies (always active)
Essential cookies are required for the site to function properly. They support core functionality such as session continuity, security protections, and saving your cookie preference choices. Because these cookies are necessary for basic operation, they are always enabled.
- Session continuity: helps the site remember that your browser has an active session while you navigate.
- Security: helps protect the site and users against malicious activity and abusive traffic.
- Consent storage: stores whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies so we can respect your preferences in future visits.
2) Analytics cookies (optional)
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve course discovery, page performance, and content clarity. For example, analytics can help us see which course pages are visited most, how long visitors spend reading, and which devices or browsers are commonly used.
When enabled, we may use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) with IP anonymisation and a retention setting designed for general performance analysis (typically 14 months for analytics data). Analytics cookies are only placed if you opt in using our cookie banner or preference panel.
3) Marketing cookies (optional)
Marketing cookies support advertising and measurement. They help us understand which campaigns lead to sign-ups or course interest, and they can be used to build audiences for remarketing or similar audiences. For example, if you choose to opt in, we may measure conversions from Google Ads or Meta campaigns and improve relevance by excluding users who already completed a sign-up.
Marketing cookies are only enabled after you opt in. If you reject Marketing cookies, we do not intentionally set marketing identifiers. Some providers may still store limited information based on non-cookie signals (for example, network or server-side event logs). Where such processing occurs, it is governed by the provider’s own policies and our configuration choices.
Cookie table
The table below lists example cookies that may be used on this site. Actual cookie names can vary depending on configuration, environment, and whether optional categories are enabled.
| Name | Purpose | Category | Type | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| _site_session | Site session continuity | Essential | First-party | Session |
| cookie_consent | Stores your consent choice | Essential | First-party | 12 months |

| _fbp | Meta Pixel browser identifier | Marketing | Third-party | 90 days |
| _fbc | Meta Pixel click identifier | Marketing | Third-party | 90 days |
If you see a cookie name in your browser storage that is not listed here, it may be a variant created by a provider or a browser feature. For the most accurate, current view, use your browser’s cookie inspection tools and compare to the categories described above.
Third-party providers
If you opt in to optional categories, some data may be processed by third-party providers. These providers act as service partners for analytics and advertising measurement. We do not permit these providers to use site data for their own independent commercial purposes.
- Google LLC (Google Analytics 4, Google Ads, Google Tag Manager): information about page views, device/browser data, and conversion events.
- Meta Platforms, Inc. (Meta Pixel, Custom/Lookalike Audiences, Conversion API where configured): information about page interactions and conversion events.
- Cloudflare (site delivery and security): IP-based threat detection and performance optimisation.
How to manage cookie preferences
You can manage your cookie preferences in three practical ways:
- Use our on-site controls: click Manage cookie preferences in the footer. This re-opens the cookie banner so you can accept all, reject non-essential, or adjust individual categories.
- Change your browser settings: most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Blocking some cookies may impact site functionality.
- Use provider opt-out tools:
If you withdraw consent for Analytics or Marketing cookies, we will stop setting those cookies going forward. Already-stored cookies may remain until they expire or you remove them via your browser settings.
