Gardeners Petts Wood Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Gardeners Petts Wood uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It describes the types of cookies we use, the purposes for which we use them, and the options you have to manage your cookie preferences.

By continuing to use our website after seeing a cookie notice, you agree that cookies may be placed on your device as described in this policy. You can withdraw or modify your consent at any time using the controls described below.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and store certain information about your preferences or previous actions. Cookies can improve your browsing experience, help us understand how our website is used, and support our marketing activities.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use several categories of cookies on the Gardeners Petts Wood website. Some are essential for the operation of the site, while others help us improve performance and tailor content and advertising.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, navigating between pages, filling in forms, or using secure areas of the site.

These cookies do not store information that directly identifies you. Without them, certain services on the website may not be available or may not work correctly.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website. They collect information such as which pages are visited most often, how users move around the site, how long they spend on pages, and if they encounter error messages.

We use this information in aggregated form to measure and improve the performance of the website. Analytics cookies support performance monitoring by allowing us to identify technical issues, optimise page load times, and refine the content and layout of our pages so that they are more useful and relevant to visitors.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver content and advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They may be set by us or by third party partners who provide marketing and advertising services on our behalf.

These cookies can remember that you have visited our website and may be used to build a profile of your interests. This helps us show you more tailored offers, measure the effectiveness of our campaigns, and avoid displaying adverts that are not relevant.

How We Use Cookies for Performance Monitoring

Gardeners Petts Wood uses cookies to monitor the performance of our website and to ensure that it runs smoothly for visitors. By analysing data from analytics and similar cookies, we can understand how quickly pages load, which features are used most frequently, and where users may be experiencing issues.

This performance monitoring allows us to identify areas for improvement, maintain site reliability, and provide a consistent and efficient browsing experience. The information is generally aggregated and is not used to identify individual visitors.

Your Cookie Choices and Controls

You have control over how cookies are used on your device. When you first visit our website, you may be presented with options to accept or reject non essential cookies such as analytics and marketing cookies. You can adjust your preferences at any time through your browser settings.

Most web browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, or to receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Please note that if you disable essential cookies, some parts of the website may not function correctly or may be unavailable.

Changing your browser settings will not necessarily remove cookies that have already been set. You can usually manage existing cookies by clearing your browser history and cookie data. The method for doing this varies by browser and device.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, legal or regulatory requirements, or improvements to our services. Any changes will take effect when the updated policy is published on this page.

We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy regularly so that you remain informed about how Gardeners Petts Wood uses cookies and how you can manage your preferences.
