Cookie Policy
The New Contract Last updated: 27/05/2026
This cookie policy explains how The New Contract uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at thenewcontract.org. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data more generally.
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, to make them more efficient, and to provide information to the site's owners.
Similar technologies — such as local storage, pixels and tags — work in comparable ways. Where we refer to "cookies" in this policy, we mean both cookies and these similar technologies.
How we manage cookies on our site
Our website is built on the Wix platform. When you first visit the site, you will see a cookie consent banner asking you to choose which categories of cookies you are happy to allow.
Only strictly necessary cookies are set by default. Any analytics, functional or marketing cookies — including Wix's own analytics — will not load until you give your consent through the banner. You can change your choices at any time using the "Cookie settings" link in our website footer.
Third-party cookies
We do not intentionally set any third-party cookies through our website beyond those Wix sets as part of running the platform. If we embed content from other services in the future (for example, a video player, a social media post, or a map), those services may set their own cookies, and we will list them here and require your consent before loading the embedded content.
Managing cookies
The easiest way to manage your cookie choices on our site is through the "Cookie settings" link in the website footer, which lets you change your consent at any time. You can also control cookies through your browser. Most browsers allow you to:
-
see what cookies are stored and delete them individually;
-
block third-party cookies;
-
block all cookies from particular sites; or
-
block all cookies from being set.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site from working properly — for example, you may not be able to submit forms.
Guidance on managing cookies in common browsers is available from the ICO at ico.org.uk
We may update this cookie policy from time to time — for example, if we start using new tools that set cookies. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page, and where the changes are significant we will tell you about them on the website or by email.

Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the website to work properly. They are always on, because the site cannot function without them. Under UK law (the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, or PECR), strictly necessary cookies do not require your prior consent. The main ones are:
-
XSRF-TOKEN (Wix, session) — security cookie that protects against cross-site request forgery on forms.
-
svSession (Wix, 2 years) — identifies unique visitors and tracks their sessions on the site.
-
hs (Wix, session) — security cookie used by the site infrastructure. • ssr-caching (Wix, 1 minute) — indicates how the site was rendered, to help deliver pages efficiently. uc_user_interaction (Usercentrics, 1 year) — records that you have interacted with the cookie banner, so it is not shown on every visit.
-
uc_settings (Usercentrics, 1 year)
Analytics cookies (only set if you consent)
If you accept analytics cookies through our consent banner, the following cookies may be set by Wix. They help us understand how the site is being used — for example, how many people visit, which pages are most popular, and how visitors arrive at the site. This information is reported in aggregate; we don't use it to identify individual visitors.
-
_wixCIDX (Wix, 3 months) — Wix Analytics: helps us understand how visitors use the site.
-
_wixUIDX (Wix, 3 months) — Wix Analytics: identifies a returning visitor for analytics purposes.
-
_wixAB3 (Wix, 12 months) — used by Wix for A/B testing site experience
