Cookie Policy.

Last updated: October 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how La Fontaine College uses cookies and similar technologies on this website. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more broadly.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit it. They help the website to work properly, remember what you have done, and understand how visitors use the site.

Some cookies are set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies). Others are set by third parties whose services are used on the site (third-party cookies).

2. How we use cookies

We use a small number of cookies on this website. They fall into the following categories.

Essential cookies

These are required for the website to function properly. They enable basic features such as page navigation, security, and remembering your preferences within a session. Without them, some parts of the site may not work as expected.

Essential cookies do not collect personal information for marketing purposes and cannot be switched off through the site itself.

Analytics cookies

These help us understand how visitors move around the website, which pages are visited most often, and how long visitors stay. This information is aggregated and used to improve the site.

Analytics cookies do not identify you personally. They collect information such as the pages you visit, the time spent on each page, and the type of device you are using.

Functional cookies

These remember choices you make on the website — for example, whether you have already seen a particular notice, or your preferences in a form — so you do not have to make the same choices again on your next visit.

3. Third-party cookies

Some services that help run this website may set their own cookies. These include:

• Our AI assistant service (Wonda), which may use cookies to maintain a conversation session
• Font and icon services, which may record which resources were loaded to improve delivery speed
• Any analytics service used to measure website traffic

These third parties are responsible for their own cookies, and their use is governed by their own policies.

4. How long cookies last

Cookies have different lifespans:

• Session cookies last only while your browser is open and are deleted automatically when you close it
• Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period, or until you delete them

5. Managing cookies

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

• See what cookies are stored and delete individual ones
• Block cookies from specific sites
• Block all cookies from being set
• Delete all cookies when you close the browser

The help section of your browser explains how to do this. If you disable cookies, some parts of this website may not work as expected.

6. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting. This website does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals, but we limit our use of cookies to the categories described above.

7. Consent

By continuing to use this website, you consent to the use of essential cookies required for the site to function. For any non-essential cookies, your browser settings determine whether they are stored.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the services we use or to applicable requirements.

When changes are made, the updated version is published on this page. The date shown at the beginning of the page indicates the most recent update.
