Last updated: 2 September 2026
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites can place on your computer, phone or other device when you visit them.
They are commonly used to help websites operate correctly, remember information during a visit, improve security and provide particular website features.
Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser, while others may remain on your device for a longer period.
Cookies Used by This Website
This website is built using WordPress and uses a number of services and security measures that may use cookies or similar technologies where necessary for the website to operate.
These may include cookies used for:
- website and WordPress functionality;
- security and protection against malicious activity;
- preventing spam and automated form submissions;
- maintaining sessions for logged-in users or customers; and
- remembering certain choices where required.
Contact and Early Access Forms
We use WPForms to provide the Contact and DSW Early Access forms on this website.
Security measures associated with these forms may use cookies or other technical information to help distinguish genuine visitors from automated or abusive submissions.
Information that you deliberately submit through a form is dealt with separately under our Privacy Policy.
Cloudflare Turnstile
Our website forms use Cloudflare Turnstile as an anti-spam and security measure.
Turnstile performs technical checks designed to help determine whether a form submission is being made by a genuine visitor rather than an automated system.
Cloudflare may process technical information and may use cookies or similar technologies where necessary to provide this security service.
Turnstile is used for website security and spam prevention rather than for advertising purposes.
Website Security
We use security software to help protect the website against unauthorised access and malicious activity.
Security systems such as Wordfence may use cookies or other technical information where necessary to identify legitimate users, protect login facilities and help detect potentially harmful activity.
Existing Customer Area
Existing Driving School Websites customers can access a separate customer account area.
The customer area uses WHMCS and may set session and other necessary cookies so that customers can log in, remain authenticated and use account and support facilities.
These cookies are separate from the normal operation of the public DSW website and are necessary for customer account functions.
WordPress Administration
WordPress uses cookies for users who log in to administer the website. These are used to maintain login sessions and remember certain administration preferences.
These cookies are generally relevant only to authorised website administrators rather than ordinary visitors.
Third-Party Services
Some features of this website rely on services provided by third parties. When these services are used, the third party may receive technical information such as your IP address, browser information or other information necessary to provide the service.
Third-party services currently associated with the website include services used for security, spam prevention and externally supplied website resources.
Those organisations are responsible for their own use of cookies and personal information in accordance with their respective policies.
Managing Cookies
Most web browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies through their privacy or security settings.
You can normally choose to block all cookies, block cookies from particular websites or delete cookies that have already been stored.
Blocking necessary cookies may prevent some parts of this website from working correctly. In particular, login facilities, customer account functions and security-protected forms may not operate as expected.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this policy if the technologies or services used by the website change.
The date at the top of this page shows when the policy was last updated.
