This Cookie Policy explains how Gardeners Bounds Green uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. It describes the types of cookies we use, the purposes for which we use them, and the options you have to manage or disable cookies through your browser settings.

By continuing to use our website after seeing the cookie notice, you agree that cookies may be placed on your device as described in this policy. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings or deleting cookies.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device, remember your preferences, and improve your browsing experience. Some cookies are required for the site to function, while others help us understand how visitors use our pages so we can enhance performance and content.

Cookies may be set directly by our website or by third parties that provide services to us, such as analytics or marketing partners. Cookies can be session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which stay on your device for a set period or until you delete them.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for the basic operation of the Gardeners Bounds Green website. Without these cookies, key features and core functions would not work properly. We use essential cookies to enable page navigation, maintain secure areas of the site, remember basic settings, and keep your session active as you move between pages.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary for the functioning of the website, they cannot be switched off through our systems. You may configure your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site may not operate correctly as a result.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Gardeners Bounds Green website. They collect information such as which pages are visited, how long users stay on a page, the general location of visitors, and the type of device or browser being used. The data collected is aggregated and does not directly identify individual users.

We use analytics cookies to monitor website performance, identify popular and less popular pages, and analyse patterns of use. This helps us refine content, improve navigation, and ensure that the website runs efficiently for all visitors. These cookies support our performance monitoring by allowing us to detect errors, loading issues, or features that may need improvement.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to your interests and to measure the effectiveness of our promotional activities. They may be set through our website by marketing partners who help us present information about Gardeners Bounds Green services that may be of interest to you.

These cookies can be used to build a profile of your interests based on how you use our website. They do not store directly identifiable personal information, but they work by uniquely identifying your browser and device. If you disable marketing cookies, you may still see general content and promotions, but they may be less tailored to your preferences.

How We Use Cookies for Performance Monitoring

Performance monitoring is an important part of maintaining and improving the Gardeners Bounds Green website. We use analytics and related cookies to track site performance, such as page loading times, responsiveness, and error rates. This information helps us quickly identify technical issues and ensure that the website remains reliable and accessible.

By analysing anonymised usage data, we can make informed decisions about updating content, adjusting site structure, and improving overall user experience. Cookies used for performance monitoring do not aim to identify individual visitors, but to give us a clearer picture of how the website is functioning as a whole.

Your Cookie Choices and Controls

You have control over how cookies are used on your device. Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings, including accepting or rejecting all cookies, accepting only certain types, or deleting cookies that have already been stored.

You can typically find cookie and privacy settings in the options or preferences menu of your browser. If you choose to disable some or all cookies, please be aware that certain features of the Gardeners Bounds Green website may not function as intended, and your overall browsing experience may be affected.
