Cookie Policy
This page explains what cookies are, how they may be used on this website, and how you can control them.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember preferences and to help site owners understand how their pages are used. Similar technologies, such as local storage and pixels, can serve comparable purposes.
How cookies may be used on this site
Essential cookies. Some cookies are needed for the website and its embedded enquiry form to function correctly, for example to maintain your session while you complete a form. These cannot usually be switched off without affecting how the site works.
Third-party embedded content. Our enquiry form is provided by a third-party form and CRM provider and is embedded in our pages. That provider may set its own cookies or similar identifiers in order to deliver the form, maintain its security and associate your submission with your enquiry.
Google Analytics 4. Only after you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics helps us understand visits, pages viewed, product interest and clicks on quote, telephone and email links. No Google Analytics script or analytics events are sent before consent or after rejection. We do not send enquiry form values or contact details as analytics event information. Advertising consent is denied, and our tag disables Google signals and advertising personalisation.
Typical cookies on this site
The exact cookies set can change as our providers update their services, but typically:
| Type | Provider | Purpose | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential / session | This website and its hosting platform | Keep the site and its pages working during your visit | Session |
| Embedded form | Third-party form and CRM provider | Deliver and secure the enquiry form and process your submission | Session to persistent |
| Analytics: _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics 4 (Google) | Understand aggregate page usage so we can improve the site | Up to two years; browser settings may shorten this |
| Consent preference: svc_analytics_consent | This website (local storage) | Remember your analytics accept or reject choice | Until cleared or the consent version changes |
Controlling cookies
Choose “Accept analytics” or “Reject analytics” when asked. You can reopen this choice at any time using “Cookie settings”. Rejecting or withdrawing consent stops our analytics events and deletes the Google Analytics cookies accessible to this website. The enquiry form remains available. Cookie lifetime is separate from Google's report-data retention setting, which has not yet been verified for this property.
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. All modern browsers let you block cookies entirely, block third-party cookies, or clear cookies already stored. Blocking essential cookies may stop parts of this website — including the enquiry form — from working correctly.
You can also use your browser's private or incognito mode, which discards cookies at the end of the session. For more general information about cookies and how to manage them, the Information Commissioner's Office provides guidance at ico.org.uk.
Personal information
How we handle personal information you submit to us is set out in our Privacy Policy.
