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 remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, pages viewed, and actions taken. Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting or by third parties that provide services on that website.

Types of Cookies We Use

Gardeners Barnehurst uses several types of cookies to support the operation and improvement of our website.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly. Without these cookies, core features of the site would not work properly. They enable functions such as navigating between pages, accessing secure areas, and maintaining your session. Because these cookies are required for the operation of the site, they cannot be switched off through our website.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website. They collect information such as which pages are visited, how long users stay on each page, and any error messages encountered. This information is aggregated and does not directly identify individual visitors. We use analytics cookies to monitor website performance, identify areas for improvement, and better understand what content is most useful to our visitors.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver content and messages that are more relevant to you and your interests. They may be set by us or by third parties that provide marketing or advertising services on our behalf. These cookies can help us measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and tailor our communications so they are more aligned with what visitors are interested in.

Purpose of Cookies for Performance Monitoring

Performance monitoring is an important reason why Gardeners Barnehurst uses cookies. By collecting anonymous usage data, we can analyse how well our website is performing. This includes monitoring page loading times, navigation paths, and how often features are used. These insights help us identify technical issues, improve reliability, and ensure that visitors can find the information they need quickly and efficiently. Over time, this helps us provide a smoother, more responsive online experience.
