Gardeners Fortis Green Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Gardeners Fortis Green uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It describes what cookies are, the types of cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. By continuing to browse our website, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy, subject to your choices and browser settings.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and store certain information about your visit. Cookies can help websites function properly, remember your preferences, and provide insight into how visitors use the site so that it can be improved over time.

Types of Cookies We Use

Gardeners Fortis Green uses different categories of cookies to support the operation and improvement of our website. These include essential cookies, analytics cookies, and marketing cookies. Each type serves a distinct purpose.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly and cannot be switched off through our on site tools. They enable core features such as page navigation, access to secure areas, and basic functionality of forms and settings. Without these cookies, services you expect from the website may not work properly.

These cookies do not gather information that could be used for marketing or to remember where you have been on the internet. They are typically only set in response to actions you take, such as setting privacy preferences or filling in forms.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Gardeners Fortis Green website. They collect information such as which pages are visited most often, how visitors move around the site, and whether users encounter error messages. The information is usually aggregated and does not directly identify individual visitors.

We use analytics cookies to monitor website performance and to support continuous improvement. By analysing patterns of use, we can identify which content is most relevant, how quickly pages load, and where we may need to improve navigation, layout, or technical performance. This helps ensure that the website remains reliable, efficient, and user friendly.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to your interests. They may remember that you have visited our website and can help us present information about our services that may be of interest to you. These cookies can also help us measure the effectiveness of any promotional activity by tracking interactions with certain pages or content.

Marketing cookies may be set by Gardeners Fortis Green or by selected third party partners that provide advertising or social media services. Information from these cookies may be combined with other data, in accordance with applicable data protection laws, to create a more tailored experience.

Performance Monitoring and Improvement

Performance monitoring is a key reason we use analytics and certain marketing related cookies. The information they collect helps us understand how the website performs under different conditions, such as variations in traffic or device type. We use these insights to optimise page speed, ensure high availability, and improve overall user experience.

By assessing trends and technical performance, we can identify and resolve problems quickly, refine the design and structure of our pages, and ensure that content remains accessible and relevant to visitors. This ongoing monitoring supports a stable and efficient website for all users.

Your Cookie Choices and Control

You have control over how cookies are used on your device. Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings, including blocking cookies, deleting existing cookies, or receiving alerts before cookies are stored. Your choices may affect how the website functions, especially if you disable essential cookies.

If you prefer not to allow certain types of cookies, you can usually adjust your browser settings to reject non essential cookies or to clear cookies at the end of each browsing session. You can also revisit your cookie preferences from time to time to review and update your choices.

Please note that restricting cookies, particularly essential or certain analytics cookies, may impact the usability and performance of the Gardeners Fortis Green website. Some features may not operate as intended without the use of specific cookies.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or the way we operate our website. Any updates will be posted on this page, and the revised policy will take effect when it is published. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how Gardeners Fortis Green uses cookies.
