This Cookie Policy explains how Timeshare Support Network uses cookies and similar technologies on this website.
Timeshare Support Network is a UK-based independent consumer support and awareness project. We use cookies and similar technologies to help our website work properly, improve security, remember visitor choices, understand how the website is used, and improve our content.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website.
Cookies can help a website work properly, remember choices you have made, improve security, understand how visitors use the website, and support features such as embedded videos, social media content, analytics, or affiliate links.
Cookies may be set directly by the website you are visiting. These are sometimes called first-party cookies.
Cookies may also be set by third-party services used on the website, such as analytics tools, video platforms, social media platforms, payment or donation platforms, advertising networks, or affiliate partners. These are sometimes called third-party cookies.
Some cookies are necessary for the website to work. Other cookies are optional and should only be used where appropriate consent has been given.
2. How we use cookies
We may use cookies and similar technologies for several purposes.
These may include:
- helping the website load and function correctly;
- keeping the website secure and protecting it from spam, misuse, or unauthorised activity;
- remembering your cookie consent choices and website preferences;
- understanding how visitors use the website so we can improve content, layout, navigation, and visitor experience;
- measuring the performance of pages, links, campaigns, articles, videos, and awareness content;
- supporting embedded content, such as videos, maps, social media posts, or third-party tools;
- supporting affiliate, partner, or referral links where these are used to help fund our work;
- helping us understand which content is useful to timeshare owners, future buyers, supporters, and visitors.
We do not use cookies to collect unnecessary personal information.
Where cookies are not strictly necessary for the website to work, they should only be used where appropriate consent has been given.
3.Strictly necessary cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are cookies that are needed for the website to work properly.
These cookies may be used to:
- load pages correctly;
- keep the website secure;
- protect the website from spam, bots, misuse, or unauthorised activity;
- remember your cookie consent choices;
- support basic website functions;
- help forms, menus, navigation, or accessibility features work correctly;
- maintain website performance and reliability.
Strictly necessary cookies do not usually require consent because they are essential for the website to function.
You may be able to block strictly necessary cookies in your browser settings, but some parts of the website may not work properly if you do so.
4. Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Timeshare Support Network website.
These cookies may collect information such as:
- which pages visitors view;
- how long visitors spend on the website;
- which links are clicked;
- how visitors arrive at the website;
- which devices, browsers, or approximate locations are used;
- whether pages are working correctly;
- which content is most useful to visitors.
We may use analytics information to improve our website, make content easier to find, understand which awareness campaigns are reaching people, and improve the visitor experience.
Analytics cookies are not strictly necessary for the website to work. Where required, they should only be used after you have given consent through our cookie banner or cookie settings tool.
We aim to use analytics in a privacy-conscious way and avoid collecting unnecessary personal information.
5. Marketing, affiliate, and advertising cookies
Marketing, affiliate, and advertising cookies may be used to support links, campaigns, referrals, social media activity, advertising, or partner relationships connected with Timeshare Support Network.
These cookies may help:
- understand whether visitors clicked on affiliate or partner links;
- track referrals to third-party websites, platforms, or services;
- measure the performance of awareness campaigns or advertising;
- support social media or advertising tools;
- show relevant content or measure engagement with campaigns;
- help fund our work through selected affiliate or partner links.
Marketing, affiliate, and advertising cookies are not strictly necessary for the website to work.
Where required, these cookies should only be used after you have given consent through our cookie banner or cookie settings tool.
Timeshare Support Network does not allow affiliate income, advertising, or partner relationships to change our core consumer protection message.
Clicking an affiliate, partner, donation, or advertising link may take you to a third-party website. That third party may set its own cookies and use your information in accordance with its own cookie policy, privacy policy, and terms.
6. Embedded content and third-party cookies
Pages on this website may include embedded content from third-party websites or platforms.
Embedded content may include videos, social media posts, maps, images, articles, donation buttons, payment tools, petitions, forms, or other third-party features.
Embedded content from another website behaves as if you visited that third-party website directly. This means the third party may collect information about you, use cookies, track your interaction with the embedded content, or combine this information with other information they hold about you.
Third-party services may include platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, LinkedIn, Google, GoFundMe, PayPal, Stripe, petition platforms, affiliate partners, or other services we may use.
We do not control the cookies, tracking technologies, privacy practices, or terms used by third-party websites or platforms.
Where embedded content or third-party tools use cookies that are not strictly necessary, these should only be used where appropriate consent has been given.
We encourage visitors to read the cookie policies, privacy policies, and terms of any third-party websites or platforms they use.
7. Social media cookies
Our website may include links to or content from social media platforms, such as Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest, or other platforms.
Social media cookies may be used when you interact with social media content, such as watching an embedded video, clicking a share button, following a page, viewing a social media post, or visiting one of our social media profiles.
These cookies may allow social media platforms to collect information about your visit, your device, your browser, your interaction with the content, and whether you are logged in to that platform.
Timeshare Support Network does not control how social media platforms use cookies or personal information.
If you interact with us through social media, your activity may also be subject to the privacy policy, cookie policy, and terms of that social media platform.
Where social media cookies are not strictly necessary, they should only be used where appropriate consent has been given through our cookie banner or cookie settings tool.
You can manage some social media cookie settings through your account settings on the relevant platform, as well as through your browser settings and our cookie consent tool where available.
8. Cookie consent and preferences
When you first visit our website, you may be shown a cookie banner or cookie settings tool.
This tool allows you to choose whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies, such as analytics, marketing, affiliate, advertising, social media, or embedded content cookies.
Strictly necessary cookies may still be used because they are needed for the website to function properly.
You can usually choose from options such as:
- accepting all cookies;
- rejecting non-essential cookies;
- managing your cookie preferences;
- changing your choices later.
We aim to make cookie choices clear and easy to understand.
You can change your cookie preferences at any time using the cookie settings tool on our website, where available.
If you clear cookies from your browser, use a different device, or use a different browser, you may need to set your cookie preferences again.
Where non-essential cookies require consent, we aim not to use them unless you have given that consent.
9. Managing cookies in your browser

Depending on your browser, you may be able to:
- view which cookies are stored on your device;
- delete cookies;
- block cookies from certain websites;

Managing cookies through your browser is separate from managing your choices through our cookie banner or cookie settings tool.
