What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device. They help the site work properly and remember things like your preferences. Every website uses them. We're not doing anything unusual here.
What We Use
We keep our cookie usage minimal. Here's the breakdown:
Essential Cookies
These make the website work. Without them, things like the contact form and page navigation wouldn't function. You can't opt out of these because the site simply wouldn't load without them.
- Session cookies — keep your browsing session working as you move between pages. Deleted when you close the browser.
Analytics
We may use basic, privacy-respecting analytics to understand how people use the website. Things like which pages get visited most, how long people stay, and whether the print calculator is actually useful or just sitting there gathering dust. We don't use this data to identify you personally.
What We Don't Use
Just to be clear:
- No advertising cookies
- No retargeting pixels
- No social media tracking widgets
- No selling cookie data to third parties
We're a copier company, not an ad network. We don't need to follow you around the internet.
Third-Party Cookies
We embed a YouTube video on the homepage (a client testimonial). YouTube may set its own cookies when you play the video. We use the privacy-enhanced mode ("youtube-nocookie.com") to limit this, but YouTube's own cookie policy applies once you interact with the player.
We also embed a Google Maps widget. Google may set cookies related to that embed. We can't control what Google does with those, but we've kept the embedding minimal.
Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Every browser handles it slightly differently, but you'll usually find cookie settings under Privacy or Security. If you block all cookies, some parts of the site might not work properly.
Questions
If you've got questions about cookies that aren't answered here, email us at enquiries@bowdendigitec.co.uk. We'll give you a straight answer.
