This Cookies Policy explains how Xuguxo ("we", "us", "our"), a translation services provider based at 165 Grainger Street, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE3 4PZ, United Kingdom, uses cookies on this website. It has been prepared in accordance with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR), as amended, and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) as retained in domestic law under the Data Protection Act 2018.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a site to recognise your device and store certain information about your preferences or past actions. Cookies can be "essential", meaning the site cannot function properly without them, or "optional", meaning they support additional functionality that you may accept or decline.
We keep our use of cookies to a strict minimum. This website sets only one cookie:
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
privacy_choice |
Stores the consent choice you make regarding cookies on this site, so that we do not need to ask you again on every visit. | 1 year | Essential (strictly necessary for consent management) |
We do not use analytics cookies, tracking pixels, session identifiers, or any third-party scripts such as those provided by analytics platforms or social networks. No other cookie of any kind is set by this website beyond the one described above.
Under PECR, cookies are generally divided into two categories:
privacy_choice cookie falls into this category, as it exists solely to
record and honour your preference.
We do not run advertising or tracking cookies across the site by default. A limited advertising measurement mechanism operates only after you have given consent, and only on the confirmation page shown after you complete a request with us. This mechanism is not active anywhere else on the site, and it does not run at all if you decline or have not given consent. No advertising cookie is set without your prior, freely given agreement, in line with the consent requirements of PECR and the UK GDPR.
You are in control of your cookie preferences at all times. You can:
privacy_choice cookie through your browser settings, which will reset your stored preference;
We rely on the "strictly necessary" exemption under PECR for the privacy_choice
cookie, as it is required solely to store and respect your consent decision. Any optional,
consent-based advertising measurement on the confirmation page relies on your explicit
consent as the legal basis under the UK GDPR, and you may withdraw that consent at any
time with future effect.
Under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have rights including access to, correction of, and erasure of your personal data, as well as the right to object to certain processing and to withdraw consent at any time. If you believe your rights have not been respected, you may also lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's independent supervisory authority for data protection matters.
If you have any questions about this Cookies Policy, or wish to exercise your rights
regarding the privacy_choice cookie or any consent-based feature, please

We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in applicable law. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "last updated" date.
