Cookie Policy
Draft date: 16 August 2026
Effective date: 16 August 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Foregate Technologies Limited (Foregate, we, us) uses cookies and similar technologies on the MySchoolPilot marketing website. It should be read with the Privacy Policy.
1. What these technologies are
Cookies are small files stored on a browser or device. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, tags and scripts that store or access information on a device. They may keep a session secure, remember choices, measure use or support integrations.
2. Who controls cookies
Foregate controls cookies on the MySchoolPilot marketing website. A school operating a self-hosted or institution-configured MySchoolPilot deployment is normally responsible for the cookies and integrations it enables there. Third-party providers may independently control data collected through their technologies.
3. Categories
Strictly necessary
These are required to provide a requested service or protect it, such as login or form sessions, CSRF protection, security and remembering a privacy choice. Where the law permits, they operate without consent and cannot be disabled through our banner. Blocking them in the browser may prevent forms or other core functions from working.
Functional
These remember optional settings such as your preferred display currency. They help the site show pricing and related information in the currency you selected.
Analytics
These help understand how visitors use the website. On the marketing site, Google Tag Manager loads only after you choose Accept on the cookie banner. Analytics technologies stay off if you choose Essential only.
Advertising or targeting
We do not currently use advertising or targeting cookies on the MySchoolPilot marketing website.

Google Tag Manager (GTM-T48DTQG5)
- Type: third-party script and any cookies or storage set by tags configured in that container
- Provider: Google Tag Manager
- Domain: googletagmanager.com and domains used by tags inside the container
- Purpose: loads approved analytics or measurement tags after consent
- Category: analytics
- Duration: depends on the tags configured in the GTM container
- Data sent to: Google and any destinations configured in the GTM container
- Activated before consent? no — loaded only after you choose Accept
5. Consent and changing choices
On first visit, users are offered equally clear choices to Accept non-essential technologies or keep Essential only. Non-essential tags are blocked before consent. Silence, inactivity, scrolling or pre-ticked boxes do not constitute consent.
You may change or withdraw consent at any time without detriment through the Cookie settings control in the site footer (available on every page) or the Cookie settings button on this page. Withdrawal does not affect earlier lawful processing, but it stops future loading of non-essential tags until you accept again. The consent record may be retained to demonstrate and respect the choice.
A user who rejects optional cookies can still access core website and form functions.
6. Browser and device controls
Browsers can block or delete cookies. Device or browser controls may not remove server-held information and may cause necessary features to fail. Clearing storage may also erase the saved consent choice, causing the banner to reappear.
7. Children
Because the MySchoolPilot platform may be used by children in school deployments, institutions must use high-privacy defaults and avoid non-essential tracking in student-facing areas unless it is necessary, proportionate, transparent and lawfully authorised. Advertising and behavioural profiling should not be enabled for student accounts.
8. Third-party services
The marketing site may load Google Tag Manager after consent. Other school-app integrations (for example payment or messaging providers) are controlled by the institution that enables them and are covered by that institution's notices and the MySchoolPilot Privacy Policy, not by this marketing-site inventory.
9. Changes and contact
We may update this Policy when technologies, vendors or law change. The effective date will be revised and additional notice provided where required.
