Cookie policy

Version: 1.1 | Last updated: 5 October 2026

This explains how Thriving Minds Collective Ltd, trading as The Bromley Psychologists, uses cookies and similar technology on this site. Please read it alongside our privacy policy.

A cookie is a small piece of data saved on your device when you visit a site. It lets the site recognise things between visits, or across pages in the same visit, such as choices you’ve made. Sites can also save small amounts of data in your browser’s local storage, which works in a similar way.

What we store without asking

When you choose an option in the cookie banner, we save that choice in your browser’s local storage, so the banner doesn’t appear again on every page. It isn’t a cookie and isn’t sent to us or anyone else. It stays until you clear this site’s data in your browser or change your choice using the “Manage cookies” link.

What we only use if you agree

If you click “Accept all” in the cookie banner, we use Google Analytics 4 to see how people use the site, such as which pages are read and for how long. Until you accept, the Google Analytics code isn’t loaded at all, so nothing is sent to Google. Google Analytics doesn’t tell us who you are, and it doesn’t store your full IP address.

Google Analytics sets these cookies:

  • _ga, which lasts up to 2 years and tells visits apart
  • _ga_*, which lasts up to 2 years and keeps track of each visit

If you click “Essential only”, Google Analytics isn’t loaded and none of these cookies are set.

Security checks on our form

Our get-started form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to check that a real person is filling it in rather than a bot. It only runs on that form, and it is needed for the form to work. It uses a short-lived token and doesn’t track you on other websites.

Changing your mind

You can change your choice at any time by clicking “Manage cookies” at the bottom of any page. The banner then appears again. If you choose “Essential only” after previously accepting, we switch Google Analytics off and delete its cookies.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although parts of the site may not work as expected. Google also offers a browser add-on to opt out of Google Analytics on all websites.

Cookies set by other companies

Google and Cloudflare set the cookies and tokens described above under their own terms. We don’t use any cookies for advertising, and we don’t use cookies to follow you across other websites.

Changes to this page

We’ll update this page, with a new version number and date, whenever the cookies we use change or the law changes.
