Cookie Policy
Last updated: 22 September 2026
A cookie is a small file a website leaves in your browser. This page lists every cookie this site can set, who sets it, what it is for and how long it lasts — and gives you a button to change your mind at any point.
Your choices, in one place
Nothing optional runs until you say so. Analytics and advertising are two separate choices and both start switched off; a tag is only ever loaded once you have turned its category on. You can change your mind here, or from the Cookie settings link in the footer, and it takes effect immediately.
Strictly necessary
Always onKeep the site working and remember the choice you make here. They never identify you and are never used for advertising.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
| simplifi-consent | This website | Remembers the choice you made here, so you are not asked again on every page. Our server reads it only to respect that choice. | 13 months |
Analytics
Off until you acceptGoogle Analytics and Microsoft Clarity, so we can see which pages help someone choose a course and which ones fall flat, and where people get stuck. We read it in aggregate — never to identify you, and Clarity hides whatever you type.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes one visitor from another so visits can be counted. | 2 years |
| _ga_<container-id> | Google Analytics | Keeps track of the current session. | 2 years |
| _clck | Microsoft Clarity | Links page views from the same browser so a visit can be replayed anonymously. | 1 year |
| _clsk | Microsoft Clarity | Keeps track of the current session. | 1 day |
Advertising
Off until you acceptMeta, so we can tell which adverts led to a booking and show our courses to dental professionals with broadly similar interests. What goes to Meta is limited: your name, email and phone scrambled so they cannot be read, plus the course and the amount, your IP address, browser type and Meta's own cookie IDs. Never your GDC number, anything you wrote to us, or your payment details.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
| simplifi-fbc | This website | Remembers which advert you arrived from, so a booking can be credited to it even when your browser blocks Meta's own script. | 90 days |
| simplifi-vid | This website | A random identifier that means nothing outside this site. It lets Meta recognise that a booking came from the same person who saw the advert, without us handing over your name. | 13 months |
| performance-tracker-browser-marker | This website | A random code that helps us see which adverts lead to bookings. It's added to your booking link and never includes your name or email. | Until you clear it or turn advertising off |
| performance-tracker-first-touch | This website | Remembers which advert first brought you here. | Until you clear it or turn advertising off |
| performance-tracker-visit-context | This website | Makes sure each visit is only counted once. | When you close the tab |
| _fbp | Meta (Facebook, Instagram) | Measures whether an advert led to a booking, and supports remarketing. | 3 months |
| fr | Meta (Facebook, Instagram) | Delivers and measures advertising on Meta platforms. | 3 months |
A few things worth knowing
The advertising cookies are not ours
They are set by Meta and Google on their own domains, and the names and durations occasionally change at their end. We keep this list current, but the definitive detail always sits with each provider's own policy.
Your choice lives on your device
It is stored in your own browser, not on our servers, so there is nothing for us to look up or link to you. Clear your browser data, switch browser or open a private window and you will simply be asked again.
Booking and payment happen on other sites
Tickets are sold through Ticket Tailor at tickets.simplificourses.co.uk and instalment mandates are set up on GoCardless's own pages. Both set their own strictly necessary cookies, under their own policies — this page covers simplificourses.co.uk.
Turning cookies off in your browser
Every major browser can block or delete cookies in its settings, and that works here too. Blocking them site-wide does tend to break parts of other websites, which is why we ask rather than assume.
Do Not Track
Nothing optional loads on this site until you opt in, so a Do Not Track signal changes nothing here — choosing Essential only already achieves it.

How we handle personal information more broadly — including your rights — is set out in our Privacy Policy.
