Cookie Policy
Effective from 26 October 2026.
This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies used on the STEP in Care website. A cookie is a small file stored on your device. We use essential cookies to operate your choices and, only if you agree, analytics cookies to understand website use.
Your choices
When you first visit, the cookie banner lets you accept optional cookies, reject them or choose by category. Accept and Reject are presented with equal prominence. Optional analytics cookies are not set before consent. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the website footer. Changing your choice does not affect essential cookies needed to remember that choice.

Essential and analytics cookies
The CookieYes consent cookie remembers your settings and is necessary to provide the choices you requested. It is not used to build an advertising profile.
Google Analytics cookies help us understand aggregate page use and improve the website. They are optional. If you reject analytics cookies, they are not set. You can withdraw consent in Cookie Settings; future analytics collection will stop. Information collected while consent was active may be retained under the Privacy Notice.
Browser controls
You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block the consent cookie, the website may not remember your choices and may ask again. Browser controls do not replace the Cookie Settings control.
Changes and contact
We will update this policy if the technologies or purposes change. The list above describes the configured launch inventory for 26 October 2026.
