Cookie Policy

Last Updated: 20 August 2026

The Lucie Rie and Hans Coper Foundation (Registered Charity Number: 1215357) is dedicated to preserving the legacies of Lucie Rie and Hans Coper while entirely respecting the privacy of our website visitors. This policy clarifies our approach to cookies and data tracking on our platform.

1. Our "No Tracking" Standard

We believe in a privacy-first browsing experience. Our website does not use tracking cookies, marketing pixels, web beacons, or third-party behavioural analytics tools. Because we intentionally do not track, profile, or follow your behaviour across the internet, you will not see a cookie consent banner pop up when you visit our website.

2. Essential System Cookies

Our website is built using Squarespace. To keep our platform secure, stable, and running properly, Squarespace may deploy a limited number of Strictly Necessary (Functional) cookies. These are technical files that do not harvest personal data, do not track you across other websites, and are used solely to let you navigate our pages smoothly.

3. Data You Choose to Share

The only personal data we interact with on this website is information you provide voluntarily. If you choose to use our homepage subscription form to sign up for news and updates, we collect your:

  • First Name

  • Last Name

  • Email Address

This form transmits your data securely to let us fulfil your newsletter request and does not rely on background tracking cookies. We will never sell, lease, or distribute this data to third parties.

4. Third-Party Links

Our website provides links to external websites, including structural references and historical archives. Please note that once you click an external link and leave our domain, you are subject to that external platform's unique privacy and cookie policies, which we cannot manage or control.

5. Policy Revisions

We review our digital setups regularly. If we ever integrate new features in the future that change how we use cookies, this policy page will be immediately updated to reflect those changes.

6. Contact Information

If you have any questions or feedback regarding our cookie policy or data privacy, please contact the Foundation by email at: contact@rie-coper.org
