Cookie Policy for Gardeners Brockley
This Cookie Policy explains how Gardeners Brockley uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. Cookies help us understand how the site is performing, improve your browsing experience, and keep core features working properly. In this policy, references to Gardeners in Brockley, our gardening service, and the Brockley gardening website all relate to the same online presence.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. They may be placed directly by us or by third-party tools that support site functionality, measurement, or advertising. We use three main categories: essential cookies, analytics cookies, and marketing cookies. Each type serves a different purpose, and some are required for the website to function correctly.
Essential cookies are necessary for basic site operations. They help with page navigation, security, load balancing, and keeping form features working as intended. Without these cookies, some areas of the site may not perform properly. These cookies do not usually collect information for advertising, and they are generally active whenever you use the site.
Analytics cookies allow us to better understand how visitors use the Gardeners Brockley website. They collect information such as which pages are visited, how long users stay, and whether certain sections are accessed more often than others. This data is used for performance monitoring, helping us identify technical issues, improve page speed, and refine content structure so the site remains efficient and reliable.
Marketing cookies are used to deliver more relevant advertisements and measure the effectiveness of promotional campaigns. They may track browsing activity across different websites and help us understand whether a campaign has reached the right audience. These cookies are only used when permitted by applicable law and, where required, after you have given consent.
We may also use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, or scripts. These tools can work together with cookies to record site interactions and support certain features. While they may perform different technical functions, they are managed in line with the same privacy principles described in this policy.
User control is an important part of our cookie approach. You can usually manage cookies through your browser settings, where you may block, delete, or restrict specific cookie categories. You can also adjust device settings or choose to clear stored browsing data at any time. Please note that disabling essential cookies may affect site functionality.
When consent is required, you may accept or refuse non-essential cookies such as analytics or marketing cookies. If you change your mind later, you can update your preferences in your browser or cookie settings. Any choice you make will apply only to the device and browser you are using unless you adjust settings elsewhere.
We use analytics in a careful and limited way to monitor overall site health. This includes checking whether pages load correctly, identifying broken links, and reviewing broad usage patterns that help us maintain a stable experience. The purpose is not to profile individual visitors in a detailed way, but to support service performance monitoring and improve usability for all users.
If third-party providers place cookies through our site, those providers may have their own privacy and cookie practices. We encourage you to review the settings in your browser and any consent tools displayed on the website so you can make informed choices about how your data is used.
By continuing to use the Gardeners Brockley site after being informed about cookies, you acknowledge that certain cookies may be stored according to your preferences and consent status. We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or the way our website operates. Any revised version will continue to describe how Gardeners Brockley uses essential, analytics, and marketing cookies responsibly.
