What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the website recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit. Cookies can be set by the website owner, known as first party cookies, or by other organisations providing services to the website, known as third party cookies.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as requesting a quote, filling in a form, or adjusting your privacy settings. These cookies do not store personally identifiable information and are only used to provide core services such as secure browsing, page navigation, and access to protected areas of the site.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Clapham Man and Van website so we can improve its performance and user experience. They collect information such as which pages are visited most often, how visitors move around the site, and whether users encounter error messages. The data collected is aggregated and does not directly identify you. We use this information for performance monitoring, to analyse trends, and to make informed decisions about how to enhance our content and services.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver content and offers that are more relevant to your interests. They may be set through our site by advertising or social media partners to build a profile of your interests and show you tailored adverts on other websites or platforms. These cookies work by uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will still see advertising, but it may be less relevant to you.

How We Use Cookies for Performance Monitoring

Clapham Man and Van uses cookies as part of our performance monitoring and service improvement efforts. Through analytics cookies, we measure website traffic, page load times, and user interactions, such as how long visitors stay on a page or how often they return. This data helps us identify which areas of the website are performing well and which may require maintenance or redesign.

We also use cookie data to test new features, streamline navigation, and ensure that our booking and enquiry processes are efficient and reliable. By monitoring performance in this way, we aim to provide a smooth, responsive and user friendly experience across all devices.

You can change your preferences at any time through your browser settings, where you can choose to block or delete cookies.

Most web browsers allow you to refuse all cookies, accept only certain types, or receive a notification when a website wants to set a cookie. Please note that if you disable essential cookies, some features of our website may not function correctly, and your ability to use certain services could be affected.

Retention and Changes to This Policy

Cookies are stored for different periods depending on their purpose. Some cookies are session based and are deleted when you close your browser, while others are persistent and remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. We review our use of cookies regularly to ensure they remain appropriate and necessary.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or our business practices. Any changes will be posted on this page, and the updated version will apply from the date it is published.
