Our approach
We keep cookies to a minimum. This website sets no advertising cookies and no analytics or tracking cookies, and we do not profile visitors.
Cookies we use
| Name | Purpose | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
| Cookie choice | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected non-essential cookies, so that we do not ask again on every page. Stored in your browser, not sent to us. | Until you clear your browser storage |
| Security token | Protects our forms from being submitted by another website on your behalf. Strictly necessary. | For your visit only |
| Sign-in session | Set only for Lodge officers who sign in to the private admin area, to keep them signed in. Strictly necessary. | Until sign-out or expiry |
Embedded video
The “Discover Freemasonry” video on our What is Freemasonry? page loads nothing until you choose to press play. Once you do, YouTube may set cookies on your device, which is why the video is optional and clearly marked.
Changing your choice
You can change your cookie choice at any time by clearing this website's data in your browser settings, which will bring the cookie banner back. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser at any time, although the sign-in area may then stop working.
