Cookie policy
Necessary cookies and optional website measurement
Necessary cookies protect the forms and remember cookie choices. Google Analytics is used only when a visitor accepts analytics cookies.

1. What cookies are
Cookies are small pieces of information stored by a browser. Some are necessary for a website feature to work securely; others can be used for measurement, personalisation or advertising.
2. Strictly necessary cookies
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
snm_session |
Protects forms using session and anti-forgery tokens, supports rate limiting and returns validation messages safely. | Browser session | Strictly necessary |
cookieyes-consent |
Records the cookie categories a visitor has accepted or rejected and supports proof of that choice. | Up to 12 months | Strictly necessary |
These cookies are not used for advertising. They support the secure service requested by the visitor and the operation of the cookie preference control.
3. Optional Google Analytics cookies
If a visitor accepts analytics cookies, Google Analytics 4 may use the following first-party cookies. They help us understand website use in aggregate and distinguish visits and sessions.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga |
Distinguishes website users for statistical reporting. | Up to 2 years | Analytics |
_ga_* |
Persists the state of a Google Analytics session. | Up to 2 years | Analytics |
Browser limits may shorten those durations. Rejecting analytics prevents these cookies from being created by this implementation.
4. Google Tag Manager and Consent Mode
Google Tag Manager is used as a controlled container for Google services. It is not used to put personal enquiry details into analytics. CookieYes communicates the visitor’s choice through Google Consent Mode v2, with analytics and advertising permission denied by default.
The Google Analytics tag is configured not to run until analytics consent is granted. Google Ads tags remain disabled. Successful quotation requests are measured as a lead only after the server has accepted the form; names, email addresses, telephone numbers, postcodes and enquiry references are not sent to Google.
Campaign parameters present in a page address may also be attached to a submitted enquiry for internal source attribution. That form record is separate from the optional analytics cookie choice.
5. Change or withdraw a cookie choice
Use Cookie settings to accept, reject or change optional categories at any time. Withdrawing consent does not undo measurement that took place while consent was active, but it stops future optional tracking on this browser.
Most browsers allow cookies to be viewed, blocked or deleted. Blocking the necessary session cookie may prevent the quotation and contact forms from working correctly.
6. Changes to this policy
We review this page whenever analytics, advertising, embedded media, live chat or another third-party service changes. Google Ads conversion or remarketing tags will not be enabled without an appropriate policy and consent review.
