What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website saves in your browser. Some are needed for a site to work; others are used for things like analytics or advertising.
Cookies on this website
We keep this website simple. We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not currently use analytics or tracking cookies.
| Type | Who sets it | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | This website (WordPress) | Keeps staff signed in to the website's admin area and remembers their settings. These are only set for people who log in, not for ordinary visitors. |
| Strictly necessary | Our hosting and caching software | Helps pages load quickly and serves the right version of a page. Where used, these do not identify you. |
| Third party (maps) | Google (Google Maps) | Our home page, Contact page and About us page show an embedded Google map of our Rainham address. When the map loads, Google may set cookies and receive information such as your IP address. Google handles this under its own privacy policy. |
| Strictly necessary | This website | The hdb_consent cookie remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics cookies, so we do not ask again on every page. It lasts 180 days. |
| Analytics (only if you accept) | Google (Google Analytics 4) | The _ga and _ga_1HZC6ZD0MR cookies tell us how many people visit, which pages they read and which buttons they use, such as calling us or asking for a quote. They last up to 2 years. They are only set if you click Accept on our cookie banner. See how Google uses information from sites that use its services. |
Strictly necessary cookies do not need your consent under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), because the site cannot work properly without them.
The Google map is not needed for the site to work. If you would rather Google did not set cookies, you can block third-party cookies in your browser settings, or use the written address and the Get directions link instead of the embedded map.
Forms on this website
Our quote and sample request forms do not set cookies. The details you type into them are sent to us so we can reply, as explained in our privacy policy.
Analytics and your choice
We use Google Analytics to understand how people use this website, so we can improve it. Analytics cookies are off until you choose. When you first visit, a banner asks whether you accept or reject them, and nothing is set unless you click Accept.
You can change your choice at any time using Cookie settings.
How to control cookies
You can change your analytics choice at any time using Cookie settings. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will not stop you reading this website, although some features may not work as expected.
