What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device by the websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide website owners with information about how their sites are used. Cookies can be session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use several types of cookies on the Gardeners Kingston website to support essential functionality, analyse performance, and help us provide relevant content and marketing.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the basic operation of our website. Without these cookies, certain services and features cannot function properly. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as navigating between pages, filling in forms, or setting your privacy preferences. These cookies do not store information that personally identifies you and are usually only stored for the duration needed to deliver the requested service. Because they are vital to the functioning of the site, you cannot disable essential cookies through our website, although you may be able to block them through your browser settings.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Gardeners Kingston website. They collect information such as which pages are visited most often, how users move around the site, and whether they encounter errors. This information is aggregated and does not directly identify individuals. We use analytics cookies to monitor site performance, measure the effectiveness of our content, and identify areas where we can improve navigation, page speed, and overall user experience. Disabling analytics cookies will not prevent you from using the site, but it may limit our ability to make improvements based on how visitors engage with our pages.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to deliver content and advertisements that may be more relevant to your interests. They may be set by us or by carefully selected third parties that provide marketing or advertising services. These cookies can help build a profile of your interests based on your browsing activity and may be used to show you tailored offers or messages on our site or on other websites you visit. If you choose to disable marketing cookies, you may see less targeted or less relevant advertising, but you will still have access to the main features of the Gardeners Kingston website.
Cookies and Performance Monitoring
We use cookies to monitor the performance of our website and ensure that it runs smoothly for all visitors. By collecting information about page load times, navigation paths, and usage trends, performance monitoring enables us to identify technical issues, optimise page layouts, improve loading speeds, and ensure that our services remain reliable and responsive. This performance data is typically aggregated and anonymised, and it helps us make informed decisions about updates, new features, and content improvements on the Gardeners Kingston website.

Most web browsers also allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can usually configure your browser to block all cookies, block cookies from specific sites, delete existing cookies, or receive notifications when cookies are being set. Please note that if you disable or delete certain cookies, some parts of the Gardeners Kingston website may not work as intended, and your user experience may be affected.
By continuing to use the Gardeners Kingston website after adjusting your cookie settings, you acknowledge that your preferences will apply to your future visits, unless you change them again through your browser or on our site where such options are available.
