Gardener Rotherhithe Cookie Policy
Welcome to the Gardener Rotherhithe cookie policy. This statement explains how Gardener Rotherhithe and related services use small files called cookies to support site function, personalise experiences and measure performance. The Rotherhithe gardener privacy approach described here is focused on transparency and user control. Please read this policy to understand the types of cookies we deploy, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences. We respect your choices and describe the options below.
Cookies are simple text files placed on your device that store identifiers and settings. They enable familiar features like remembering a preference, maintaining a secure session when a gardener in Rotherhithe books a visit, or helping our analytics tools count visits and interactions. These files do not typically contain personal details such as full names or financial information, but they can be linked to usage patterns that help improve performance and service delivery.
Types of Cookies Used by Gardener Rotherhithe
We use several categories of cookies to operate and refine our services. Below is a clear outline of the three primary cookie types and their roles so you can decide what to allow or block:
- Essential cookies — These cookies are necessary for basic site function. They enable secure logins, session persistence and other core features that a Rotherhithe gardener service relies on. Without essential cookies some parts of the service will not work.
- Analytics cookies — These cookies collect aggregated data about how visitors use the site, such as pages visited, time spent and navigation paths. The information is used for performance monitoring and to improve reliability, content and delivery of services.
- Marketing cookies — These are used to deliver content that may be of interest based on browsing patterns and to measure the effectiveness of promotions. They can be set by third parties and track users across multiple sites.
Each cookie type has a different lifespan and purpose: session cookies expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain for a set period. We only place cookies necessary for the described purposes and we try to minimise reliance on third-party tags.
User Control and Consent Options
Control over cookies is important to us. You can manage preferences through your browser settings or a cookie preference tool where provided. Opting out of analytics or marketing cookies will not prevent essential cookies from operating, but some personalised functionality may be restricted. For example, disabling analytics cookies will stop aggregated performance monitoring data that helps identify slow pages, server issues or errors that affect the gardener Rotherhithe experience.
When you choose to accept or decline cookie categories we record that preference in a cookie so your settings persist. We recommend reviewing these settings periodically and adjusting them as needed. If you clear cookies from your device you may need to reapply your choices. Our policy emphasises minimal data retention for monitoring purposes: analytics cookies record aggregated trends and performance metrics, not personally identifying logs.
To summarise, this Gardener Rotherhithe cookie notice covers the essentials: what cookie types we use (essential, analytics, marketing), how they support service quality and user experience, and how you can control them. Performance monitoring is explicitly for diagnosing issues, improving load times, and refining the reliability of services provided by the Rotherhithe gardener and related offerings. We will update this policy when practices change and continue to prioritise clear, concise explanations of cookie use.
