Whetstone Carpet Cleaners Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Whetstone Carpet Cleaners uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It describes what cookies are, the types of cookies we use, the purposes for which we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. By continuing to use our website after being presented with 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 the website recognise your device and store certain information about your visit. Cookies can improve your browsing experience by remembering your preferences, enabling certain website functions, and helping us understand how visitors use our site.
Cookies may be set by our website directly, known as first party cookies, or by third parties providing services on our behalf, known as third party cookies. Both types may be used on our website for the purposes outlined in this policy.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use several categories of cookies to operate and improve our website and services. The main types of cookies used by Whetstone Carpet Cleaners are essential cookies, analytics cookies, and marketing cookies.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the basic operation of our website. They enable core functions such as page navigation, secure areas, and form submissions. Without these cookies, the website may not function correctly and certain services you request cannot be provided.
These cookies do not track your browsing activity on other websites and are generally set in response to actions you take, such as requesting a quote, booking a service, or adjusting your privacy settings. Because they are strictly necessary, you cannot disable essential cookies through our website tools, although you can block them in your browser settings, which may affect site functionality.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website. They collect information such as which pages are visited most frequently, how long visitors stay on each page, and any error messages encountered. This information is aggregated and does not directly identify you.
We use analytics cookies to monitor the performance of our website and to improve the way it works. For example, analytics data helps us identify slow loading pages, understand which services attract the most interest, and optimise our content and layout for a smoother user experience. These cookies support performance monitoring and guide improvements that make it easier for you to find the carpet cleaning information and services you need.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to deliver content and advertisements that are more relevant to your interests. They may be set through our site by third party advertising or social media partners. These cookies can build a profile of your interests based on your browsing on our website and, in some cases, on other websites.
The information collected by marketing cookies may be used to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, limit the number of times you see a particular advert, and present you with offers more closely aligned to your needs. If you do not allow these cookies, you may still see advertisements, but they are likely to be less tailored to you.
Performance Monitoring and Website Improvement
Performance monitoring is an important part of how we maintain and enhance the quality of our website. By using analytics and certain functional cookies, we can understand how the site performs under different conditions and how visitors move through the pages.
This performance data helps us identify technical issues, improve loading times, and refine navigation so that you can access information about our carpet cleaning services quickly and easily. It also supports our ability to plan future updates based on actual usage patterns rather than assumptions.
User Control and Managing Cookies
You have control over how cookies are used on your device. When you first visit our website, you may be presented with a cookie notice or preference tools that allow you to accept or reject non essential cookies such as analytics and marketing cookies. You can usually change these preferences at any time by adjusting your browser settings.
Most web browsers allow you to view, delete, or block cookies, and to set rules for how cookies are handled on specific websites. Please note that if you choose to block all cookies, including essential cookies, some parts of our website may not function properly and certain features or services may not be available.
By using our website without adjusting your browser settings to block cookies, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this Cookie Policy. We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology or legal requirements. Any changes will be posted on this page, and your continued use of the site will indicate your acceptance of the updated policy.
