Cookie Policy

Last updated: September 15, 2026

About this policy

This Cookie Policy explains how T1International uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit t1international.com (the “Website”), what those technologies do, and how you can control them.

T1International is a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation in England and Wales (1168249). T1International USA is a tax-exempt organization under section 501(c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code (EIN 84-2544817). Both entities are responsible for the information described here.

This policy sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more broadly. Where this policy refers to personal information collected through cookies, the Privacy Policy also applies.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide information to site owners.

Cookies set by the site you are visiting are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by anyone else — for example, a service whose content is embedded in a page — are called third-party cookies. Third-party cookies allow that provider to recognize your device both on this Website and, in some cases, on other websites you visit.

Cookies are not the only technology of this kind. We and our providers may also use:

  • Pixels and web beacons — small graphics that record whether a page was viewed or an email was opened.
  • Local storage — data stored in your browser by a script rather than as a cookie, used for similar purposes.

Where this policy refers to cookies, it also covers these similar technologies.

Cookies may be session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.

Why we use cookies

We use cookies to:

  • keep the Website working and secure;
  • remember your cookie preferences so we do not ask you again on every page;
  • allow embedded tools — such as our action and donation forms — to function;
  • understand, in aggregate, how people find and use the Website, so we can improve it.

We do not use cookies to serve advertising, and we do not sell or share personal information for advertising purposes.

The categories of cookies we use

Our cookie banner groups cookies into the following categories. You can accept or reject each category, except for those that are strictly necessary.

Necessary

Required for the Website to function — for example, page security, load balancing, and recording your cookie choices. These cannot be switched off. You can still block them in your browser settings, but parts of the Website may then stop working.

Functional

Enable features beyond the basics, such as embedded forms, maps, and video players. Without these, some content may not load.

Analytics

Help us understand how visitors use the Website — which pages are read, how people arrive, and where they encounter problems. This information is aggregated and used to improve the Website.

Performance

Measure how the Website behaves technically, such as page load times.

Advertising

We do not run advertising on this Website and do not set advertising cookies.

Cookies used on this Website

The tables below list the cookies currently set on this Website, grouped by category, with the provider, purpose, and how long each one lasts.

Cookies can change as we add or remove tools. We review this list periodically, and the date at the top of this page shows when it was last updated.

Third-party services

Some of the cookies described above are set by third parties whose tools we use. Those providers process information under their own policies, which we do not control. The main ones are below.

Action Network

Parts of this Website use embedded widgets supplied by a third-party provider, Action Network — for example, petition forms, event sign-ups, newsletter sign-up forms, and other calls to action. These embeds may set their own cookies or use similar tracking technologies when a page containing them is loaded, or when you interact with them.

Action Network’s use of these technologies is described in its Cookies Notice (opens in a new tab) and its Privacy Notice (opens in a new tab).

Google

We use Google Analytics, via Google Site Kit, to understand how the Website is used. Google Analytics sets cookies that record an anonymous identifier and information about your visit. We have enabled Google’s consent mode, which means these cookies are only set once you have accepted the Analytics category, and Google is instructed not to use the data for advertising purposes.

Some pages also use Google Maps. Where they do, the map loads only after you choose to activate it, and Google may then set cookies.

Google’s practices are described in its Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab) and in How Google uses information from sites that use our services (opens in a new tab). You can also install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on (opens in a new tab).

Embedded video

Pages that include video embed players from [YouTube / Vimeo]. These players may set cookies and record playback information. They load only after you accept the Functional category.

Security and delivery

Our Website is delivered through Cloudflare, which sets strictly necessary cookies to protect the Website against malicious traffic and to keep it available. These cookies do not identify you personally and cannot be switched off.

Donations and off-site pages

Our donation pages are hosted by our payment and fundraising providers on their own websites. When you follow a link to donate, you leave t1international.com, and that provider’s cookie and privacy policies apply to what happens there.

How to control cookies

Our cookie banner. When you first visit the Website, you are asked which categories of cookies you accept. Non-essential cookies are not set until you make that choice.

Changing your mind. You can change or withdraw your choices at any time using the button below, which reopens the preference panel. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it. Withdrawing consent does not remove cookies already stored on your device; you can delete those through your browser.

Browser controls. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies, and many let you block third-party cookies specifically. How you do this varies by browser — see your browser’s help pages. If you block all cookies, including strictly necessary ones, parts of the Website may not work.

Global Privacy Control. Our Website recognizes the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser or extension sends a GPC signal, we treat it as a request to reject non-essential cookies.

Opt-out services. For information about opting out of interest-based advertising across the web generally, see Your Online Choices (opens in a new tab) or the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out tool (opens in a new tab). We do not serve advertising ourselves, but these tools may be useful to you.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights over the personal information collected through cookies — including rights to access it, correct it, delete it, or object to its use. Our Privacy Policy explains those rights and how to exercise them.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use, in the tools embedded on the Website, or in the law. Any changes will be posted on this page, and the date at the top will be updated. Please check back from time to time.
