Cookies Policy
Last updated: 16 September 2026
What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember actions and preferences over time. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels and local storage that can store or access information on your device. These files can hold details such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent on pages and interaction data. In the United Kingdom they fall under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations together with the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act.
Why This Site Uses Cookies
premierlyvo operates a commercial platform focused on professional media feeds, live signal management and broadcast distribution. Cookies help deliver reliable high-quality services by recognising returning visitors, maintaining secure sessions during live operations and measuring how content is accessed. Without them many core functions would fail and user experience would degrade significantly.
Categories of Cookies We Employ
We group cookies into five main categories. Strictly necessary cookies enable basic site functions such as navigation and security. Functional cookies remember preferences like language or display settings. Analytics or performance cookies collect aggregated usage statistics to improve service reliability. Advertising or targeting cookies may track browsing to deliver relevant promotions though this site minimises such use. Social-media cookies can appear if third-party sharing tools are engaged though our platform limits these to essential broadcast-related integrations.
First-Party Versus Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by premierlyvo and stay within our domain. They handle session management for video feeds and user authentication. Third-party cookies come from external providers such as content delivery networks or analytics services that support live signal distribution. These may be required to ensure stable high-quality feeds reach news programmes and television broadcasters.
Session Cookies Compared with Persistent Cookies
Session cookies exist only while your browser is open and are deleted when you close it. They support temporary tasks such as maintaining a live broadcast session. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until manually removed. Retention periods vary: strictly necessary ones often last a few hours while analytics cookies may persist for up to twenty-four months to allow year-on-year performance comparison.
Data Handled and Specific Purposes
Strictly necessary cookies store session identifiers and security tokens to prevent unauthorised access during content distribution. Functional cookies hold preference data such as default camera settings or signal quality choices. Analytics cookies record page views, load times and error rates to optimise feed reliability. Each category processes only the minimum data required for its stated purpose and never sells personal information.
Consent and Legal Basis Under UK Law
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations consent is required for non-essential cookies. Strictly necessary cookies operate under the legitimate interests basis because they are essential for service delivery. All other categories rely on explicit consent obtained through our site-wide cookie banner. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing already carried out.
Details of Cookies and Providers
The following list summarises active cookies. Strictly necessary: session identifier set by premierlyvo lasting two hours for authentication. Functional: preference token set by premierlyvo lasting six months for user settings. Analytics: performance cookie from our measurement partner lasting thirteen months for usage statistics. No advertising cookies are currently active. Social-media cookies appear only if you choose to share broadcast clips and last thirty days.
How the Consent Manager Operates
Our cookie banner appears on first visit and offers granular choices for each non-essential category. Selecting reject disables those cookies immediately. You can reopen the banner via the footer link at any time to change or withdraw consent. Changes take effect on your next page load and are stored for twelve months unless you clear browser data.
Browser-Level Controls and Consequences
Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through settings menus. Disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent login and live feed access. Blocking analytics cookies reduces our ability to improve service quality but does not stop core functionality. Instructions for common browsers are available on their official support pages.
International Transfers of Data
Some third-party providers may process cookie data outside the United Kingdom. In such cases appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses are used. Full details appear in our separate Privacy Policy which you should read alongside this document.
Changes to This Policy
We review the Cookies Policy regularly to reflect changes in technology or regulation. Material updates will be announced on the site banner and the last-updated date revised. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
