This Cookie Policy explains how Gardeners Sipson 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 choices you have in relation to cookies. By continuing to use our website after seeing a cookie notice, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They help a website recognise your device, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors interact with different pages and features. Some cookies are necessary for the website to function properly, while others support performance monitoring, analytics, and marketing activities.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are required for the basic operation of the Gardeners Sipson website. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, secure access to areas of the site, and correct display of content. Without these cookies, services you request may not function correctly. These cookies do not gather information for marketing purposes and are usually set in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences or filling in forms.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Gardeners Sipson website. They collect information such as which pages are visited, how long users stay on a page, and how they navigate through the site. This information is aggregated and does not directly identify individual visitors. We use analytics cookies to monitor the performance of the website, identify areas that may require improvement, and make informed decisions about design, content, and functionality. These cookies support performance monitoring by highlighting trends and patterns in visitor behaviour, allowing us to refine and optimise the experience we provide.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to your interests. They may be set by us or by third parties to build a profile of your interests based on your browsing activity. This information can then be used to show you more targeted content or measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. Marketing cookies may also help us manage how often you see certain content and understand whether you have interacted with specific promotional materials on our site.

How We Use Cookies for Performance Monitoring

Gardeners Sipson uses cookies to measure and improve the performance of our website. Through analytics and related technologies, we monitor page load times, user navigation paths, interaction with key features, and technical issues that may affect your experience. This performance monitoring helps us maintain a reliable and efficient website, identify errors quickly, and ensure that our pages remain responsive and easy to use. The insights we gain are used only to enhance the quality, relevance, and reliability of our online services.

User Control and Managing Cookies

You have control over how cookies are used on your device. Most web browsers allow you to manage cookie settings, including blocking or deleting cookies completely. You can usually find these controls in the privacy or security settings of your browser. If you choose to disable or block certain cookies, especially essential cookies, some parts of the Gardeners Sipson website may not function properly or may become inaccessible.

You may also be able to manage preferences for analytics and marketing cookies through on site cookie banners or settings tools when they are available. Your selected preferences will typically apply only to the browser and device you are using at the time. If you use multiple devices or browsers, you may need to update your settings on each one.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or how we operate our website. Any updates will be posted on this page, and the revised policy will take effect when it is published.
