Cookie policy

Cookies are small files stored in your browser. This website also uses local storage and session storage to remember choices and support its features. This policy explains these technologies and lets you change your optional preferences.

Website operation and security

Session and security cookies keep you signed in, protect forms against forged requests and maintain your booking and account journey. Blocking these cookies in your browser may stop those features working.

We store your cookie choice in this browser under stm-consent-v2 for up to 180 days before asking again. Clearing browser storage removes that remembered choice. The settings above apply to this browser and device.

If you change the accessibility settings, we remember your display choices in local storage under stmatts-accessibility until you change them or clear browser storage.

Contact-form spam protection

When enabled, Google reCAPTCHA loads on the contact page to check whether a submission is automated. It uses browser and device information and may set a security cookie called _GRECAPTCHA. The analytics and advertising switches do not disable the contact-form security check.

Google controls its own cookies and their duration. Read Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. If you cannot use the check, you can contact the club by phone or email instead.

Optional analytics

If you allow analytics and it is configured for the site, Google Analytics helps measure visits and actions such as viewing an event or completing a booking. Its cookies can include _ga and cookies beginning _ga_. Analytics is off until you choose to allow it.

Optional advertising measurement

If you allow advertising measurement and it is configured, the Meta Pixel helps measure responses to Facebook and Instagram advertising. Its cookies can include _fbp and _fbc. This choice is separate from analytics and is off by default. See Meta’s cookie policy.

With either optional category enabled, we may remember campaign labels for the current browser session to understand how a visit led to an enquiry or booking. Third-party cookie lifetimes depend on the provider’s settings and your browser.

Changing or withdrawing your choice

Use the controls above at any time, or the Cookies tab in your account. Choose “Essential only” to switch off optional analytics and advertising measurement. This stops future optional measurement; it does not undo information already sent to a provider.

You can also remove cookies and local storage using your browser settings. You may need to sign in and set your preferences again afterwards. Read our privacy policy for more about personal information.
