NDPP Cookie & Digital Accessibility Policy

Version: 4.0
Effective Date: 01 January 2026

Our Commitment

NDPP believes digital environments should support clarity, predictability and cognitive sustainability.

Accessibility, privacy and interpretive trust are not treated as add-on features. They are part of responsible infrastructure design.

Our website and digital systems are designed to:

  • reduce unnecessary cognitive load

  • support clear navigation and interpretation

  • minimise intrusive or destabilising digital behaviour

  • respect user autonomy and privacy

  • remain usable across a wide range of devices, access needs and neurocognitive styles

This policy explains how NDPP uses cookies and similar technologies across:
www.ndpp.co.uk

It also outlines our broader approach to digital accessibility and inclusive infrastructure design.


What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website.

They help websites:

  • function correctly

  • remember preferences

  • improve usability

  • understand broad usage patterns

  • maintain security and stability

Cookies do not give NDPP access to your device.

NDPP does not use cookies to identify individuals personally unless information is voluntarily submitted through forms or direct communication.


How NDPP Uses Cookies

NDPP uses cookies in a limited and proportionate way to support:

  • website functionality

  • accessibility and usability

  • security and operational integrity

  • anonymised website insight and improvement

Cookies are not used for:

  • behavioural profiling

  • invasive tracking

  • high-volume advertising systems

  • selling personal information to third parties

NDPP aims to minimise unnecessary digital intrusion wherever possible.


Types of Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to operate correctly.

They may support:

  • secure forms

  • session management

  • accessibility settings

  • cookie preference storage

  • security protections

Without these cookies, some parts of the website may not function properly.


Performance & Analytics Cookies

These cookies help NDPP understand broad website usage patterns, including:

  • which pages are visited most frequently

  • navigation flow

  • general site performance

  • areas where users may encounter friction or confusion

Where analytics tools are used, NDPP aims to:

  • minimise data collection

  • anonymise information where possible

  • avoid unnecessary tracking behaviour

This information is used solely to improve website clarity, accessibility and usability.


Functionality Cookies

These cookies remember user preferences such as:

  • accessibility settings

  • display preferences

  • interface adjustments

Their purpose is to support a more predictable and comfortable browsing experience.


Third-Party Cookies

Some website content may rely on trusted third-party providers, including:

  • embedded video

  • document viewing tools

  • scheduling or booking systems

  • external media platforms

These providers may set cookies independently in accordance with their own privacy policies.

NDPP seeks to use third-party services proportionately and responsibly.


Your Choices & Cookie Control

When visiting the NDPP website, you may be presented with options to:

  • accept all cookies

  • reject non-essential cookies

  • customise cookie preferences

Cookie choices can usually be updated later through website settings or browser controls.

Most browsers also allow you to:

  • block cookies

  • delete stored cookies

  • limit tracking behaviour

  • manage permissions by site

Please note that disabling some cookies may affect website functionality.


Digital Accessibility & Inclusive Design

NDPP believes accessibility is part of operational trust.

Digital systems should reduce interpretive burden rather than increase it.

NDPP therefore aims to design digital environments that:

  • support predictable navigation

  • maintain readable layouts and contrast

  • minimise unnecessary visual overload

  • reduce disruptive motion where possible

  • remain compatible with assistive technologies

  • support different cognitive and sensory processing styles

Where possible, NDPP seeks to apply principles aligned with:

  • cognitive accessibility

  • neurodiversity-informed design

  • low-friction interaction

  • interpretive clarity

  • predictable workflow sequencing

Accessibility is treated as an ongoing practice rather than a one-time compliance exercise.


AI, Analytics & Digital Ethics

As NDPP increasingly works across AI-supported and digital systems, we remain committed to:

  • proportionate data use

  • ethical infrastructure

  • transparent digital practice

  • reducing hidden monitoring burden

  • supporting interpretive trust

NDPP does not use website analytics or digital systems for:

  • psychological profiling

  • behavioural manipulation

  • surveillance-based engagement tactics

Digital tools should support clarity and usability, not exploit cognitive vulnerability.


Accessibility Support & Feedback

NDPP welcomes feedback regarding:

  • accessibility barriers

  • usability concerns

  • navigation difficulties

  • sensory or cognitive friction

  • compatibility issues

Where possible, reasonable adjustments and improvements will be considered thoughtfully and proportionately.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated periodically to reflect:

  • legal requirements

  • accessibility improvements

  • operational changes

  • evolving digital infrastructure practices

The latest version will always be available on the NDPP website with the effective date clearly shown.


Final Statement

NDPP believes digital systems should support:

  • clarity

  • predictability

  • accessibility

  • trust

  • sustainable participation

Cookies and digital technologies should help users navigate systems more easily, not increase cognitive burden or uncertainty.

Our approach to digital infrastructure reflects the same principle that underpins all NDPP work:

Complexity should be contained responsibly by design, not redistributed invisibly into people.
