What are cookies
As is common practice with almost all professional websites, this site uses cookies, which are tiny files that are downloaded to your computer to improve your experience. This page describes what information they gather, how we use it and why we sometimes need to store these cookies. We will also share how you can prevent these cookies from being stored (although this may downgrade or 'break' certain elements of the site’s functionality).
How we use cookies
We use cookies for a variety of reasons detailed below. Unfortunately, in most cases there are no industry standard options for disabling cookies without completely disabling the functionality and features they add to this site. It is recommended that you leave on all cookies if you are not sure whether you need them or not, in case they are used to provide a service that you use.
Disabling cookies
You can prevent the setting of cookies by adjusting the settings on your browser (see your browser Help for how to do this). Be aware that disabling cookies will affect the functionality of this and many other websites that you visit. Disabling cookies will usually result in also disabling certain functionality and features of this site, and therefore it is recommended that you do not disable cookies.
The cookies we set
Quote related cookies
If you initiate a quote with us, then we will use cookies for the management of the sign-up process and general administration.
Forms related cookies
If you submit data through a form such as those found on contact pages or comment forms, cookies may be set to remember your user details for future correspondence.
Third party cookies
In some special cases, we also use cookies provided by trusted third parties and you may encounter these when you use our site.
This site uses Google Analytics, which is one of the most widespread and trusted analytics solutions on the web and can help us understand how you use our site and the ways that we can improve your experience. These cookies may track things such as how long you spend on the site and the pages that you visit so that we can continue to produce engaging content. For more information on Google Analytics cookies, see the official Google Analytics page.
From time to time, we test new features and make subtle changes to the way that the site is delivered. When we are still testing new features, these cookies may be used to ensure that you receive a consistent experience whilst on the site whilst ensuring we understand which optimisations our users appreciate the most.
As we sell products, it's also important for us to understand statistics about how many of the visitors to our site actually make a purchase. This kind of data is also tracked by cookies. This functionality is also important to you as it means that we can accurately make business predictions that allow us to monitor our advertising and product costs to ensure the best possible price.
The Google AdSense service we use to serve advertising uses a DoubleClick cookie to serve more relevant ads across the web and limit the number of times that a given ad is shown to you. For more information on Google AdSense, see the official Google AdSense privacy FAQ.
Several partners advertise on our behalf and affiliate tracking cookies simply allow us to see if our customers have come to the site through one of our partner sites so that we can credit them appropriately (and, where applicable, allow our affiliate partners to provide any bonus that they may provide you for making a purchase).
More information
Hopefully this explainer has clarified things for you. And, as was previously mentioned, if you are unsure, it's usually safer to leave cookies enabled in case they interact with one of the features you use on our site.
