Privacy and cookie policy
Last updated: November 2026
Everything you type into the interactive tools stays in your browser — never sent to us or to an AI vendor.
We never ask for your name, email, or login to use the toolkit.
Google Consent Mode defaults to denied unless you explicitly click Accept on the banner.
This policy explains how the NCD AI Nursing Toolkit (practicedev.cloud) handles your information, in line with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. The toolkit is run by Nursing Citizen Development CIC, which is the data controller for any personal data described here.
The short version
- You don't need an account, and we don't ask for your name or email.
- The interactive tools run entirely in your browser. What you type into the decision helper, checklist, prompt explorer, Spot the error, policy builder or lesson planner is not sent to us or to any AI company.
- We only use analytics cookies if you accept them.
Cookies and similar storage
| What | Why | When |
|---|---|---|
| Your cookie choice (browser local storage) | Remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics, so we don't ask every time | Always: strictly necessary |
| Google Analytics (GA4) cookies | Anonymous statistics about which pages are used, the device type and approximate location (city or country), so we can improve the toolkit | Only if you click Accept |
| Your saved course list (browser local storage) | Remembers courses you star in the free course finder. It stays on your device and is never sent to us. | Only if you star a course |
| Offline app storage (service worker cache) | Saves the toolkit's pages on your device so the installed app works without a signal. It contains the site's own files, not information about you. | Only if you install the app |
We use Google Consent Mode. By default, analytics storage is denied. It only switches on if you accept on the cookie banner. You can change your mind at any time by clearing this site's cookies and storage in your browser settings. The banner will then ask again.
Hosting
The toolkit is hosted on GitHub Pages. GitHub may keep basic server logs, such as IP addresses, for security. See the GitHub Privacy Statement.
Links to other websites
The toolkit links to other organisations, such as the NMC, NHS England and Microsoft. Their privacy policies apply when you visit their sites.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you can ask for access to, correction of or erasure of personal data we hold about you. You can also object to processing, and withdraw consent to analytics at any time. Because we don't collect names or contact details through the website, we usually hold no personal data about visitors, unless you submit contact details via our feedback form.
If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
