Cookies Policy

Last updated: 16 September 2026

What cookies and similar technologies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They store information such as preferences, login details and browsing behaviour. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels and local storage that can track usage across sessions.

Why famezionup uses them

We operate a platform providing professional video feeds, live signal management and content distribution for news and broadcasting. Cookies help maintain reliable service delivery, remember user settings for feed customisation and measure performance of high-quality video streams.

Categories of cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These enable core functions such as secure login to the media hub and basic navigation. Without them the site cannot operate.

Functional cookies

They remember choices like preferred video resolution or signal format so that returning visitors receive a consistent experience when managing live feeds.

Analytics or performance cookies

These collect aggregated data on how users interact with content distribution tools and camera feed interfaces, allowing us to improve reliability and reduce buffering.

Advertising or targeting cookies

Where used, they support relevant promotion of broadcasting services without profiling individuals for unrelated advertising.

Social-media cookies

These may be present if third-party platforms embed sharing tools for news programme clips, subject to the provider's own policies.

First-party versus third-party cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by famezionup and relate to our media feed services. Third-party cookies come from partners such as analytics providers that assist with performance monitoring of live signal distribution.

Session versus persistent cookies

Session cookies expire when the browser closes and are used for temporary tasks such as active video session management. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period, typically up to 24 months, to retain settings for recurring users of our content distribution platform.

Data handled and purpose of each category

Necessary cookies process device identifiers and session tokens to ensure uninterrupted access to professional feeds. Analytics cookies handle page views, video play duration and error rates to optimise broadcast quality. Retention periods are set to the minimum required for each purpose under UK data protection rules.

Consent or exemption basis under UK law

Strictly necessary cookies operate under the exemption in the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations. All other categories rely on consent obtained through our site-wide cookie banner in line with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Consent is freely given, specific and can be withdrawn at any time.

How the consent manager works

Our banner appears on first visit and allows granular acceptance or rejection of each non-essential category. Users may reopen the banner via the footer link to review or change selections. Withdrawal of consent does not affect prior processing carried out lawfully.

Browser-level controls

Most browsers permit blocking or deleting cookies through settings menus. Disabling necessary cookies may prevent access to secure areas of the media hub and disrupt live signal management features.

International transfers

Some analytics providers may transfer data outside the UK. Appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses are in place. Further details appear in our Privacy Policy, which can be accessed from the site footer.

Policy changes and contact

We review this policy regularly and will update the date above when material changes occur. For questions about cookies or data processing contact us using the details on our Contacts page or email [email protected].
