Information about cookies used on this site. Cookies are small, often encrypted text files, located in browser directories. They are used to help you navigate through our site efficiently and to perform certain functions such as remembering preferences and to enable us to track usage.

Site Cookies

The primary cookie ‘MoodleSession’ provides continuity and maintains your login from page to page. The site will not work without his cookie. This cookie is deleted when you leave the site (i.e. close your browsing session). Another cookie, 'MoodleID' remembers your username.  You will have been asked if you want PropaGate Learning to remember your username the first time you logged in.  You can delete this cookie without affecting performance - you'll just have to retype your username every time you log in.

Any other cookies used are to maintain preferences and do not collect personal data. See below for more details:

Videos

We add videos from our official Vimeo account using Vimeo’s Do Not Track setting. We also embed videos from YouTube.

When you view a video, Vimeo uses localstorage and cookies to store user preferences (such as if you turn on captions), but Vimeo will not store personally-identifiable cookie information for playbacks of embedded video unless you are logged into your own Vimeo account. Read more about Vimeo player cookies and the Vimeo Cookie Policy. For YouTube, we embed videos using the privacy-enhanced mode which may set cookies on your computer when you watch a video, but personally-identifiable information will not be stored unless you are logged into your Google account. Read more about the YouTube privacy enhanced mode and How Google uses Cookies.

Padlet

Occasionally a Padlet is embedded in a PropaGate course. Padlet.com places some small pieces of data in your browser. For example, when you revisit the Padlet, the information stored in your browser is used to find out if you created a Post or a Padlet in the past, so that you can edit or modify your posts. For more information please see the Padlet Privacy Policy.

Tiles format

Some courses may use a 'Tiles' format. On first use you will be asked to consent to data being stored in your browser which includes the id of the last section you had opened - this will be remembered and opened again when you re-enter the course. You can opt out or agree when prompted.
