This Cookie Policy explains how Gardeners Covent Garden uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It describes what cookies are, the types of cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can control your cookie preferences. By continuing to use our website, you agree to the placement and use of cookies as described in this policy, unless you adjust your browser settings to refuse some or all cookies.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function properly, improve performance, and provide information to website owners. Cookies may be set directly by our website or by third parties providing services on our behalf. Some cookies are stored only for the duration of your visit, while others remain on your device for a longer period.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use several categories of cookies on the Gardeners Covent Garden website. Each category serves a specific purpose and contributes to your overall browsing experience.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for the basic operation of our website. Without these cookies, key features and services would not function correctly. They enable functions such as page navigation, secure areas of the site, and basic accessibility tools. These cookies do not gather information for marketing purposes and are not used to track your browsing activity across other websites. Because they are crucial for the performance and security of the website, they cannot usually be disabled through our site. You may be able to block them in your browser, but doing so may cause parts of the site to stop working properly.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website. They collect information such as which pages are visited most often, how users navigate between pages, and whether they encounter errors. The information these cookies collect is aggregated and does not directly identify you. We use analytics cookies to monitor site performance, measure the effectiveness of content, and identify areas where we can improve usability. This performance monitoring allows us to refine our website, making it more relevant, efficient, and user friendly for our visitors over time.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to your interests and to measure the effectiveness of our promotional activities. These cookies may be set by Gardeners Covent Garden or by third party partners who provide advertising or social media services. They can help us understand which services or content you view on our site and may be used to show you tailored content on other platforms. Marketing cookies can also limit how often you see a particular advertisement and help us measure campaign performance.

How We Use Cookies for Performance Monitoring

Performance monitoring is an important part of how we maintain and improve the Gardeners Covent Garden website. By using analytics and certain functional cookies, we can track website loading times, navigation flows, and technical issues such as error messages or broken pages. This information is analysed to help us enhance speed, reliability, and accessibility. Monitoring performance in this way allows us to ensure that our content, images, and interactive features work smoothly and that visitors can find the information they need quickly and reliably.

Your Cookie Choices And Control

You have control over how cookies are used on your device. Most web browsers allow you to manage cookie settings, including blocking certain types of cookies or deleting existing cookies. You can usually find these options in the privacy or security settings of your browser. If you choose to disable or block some cookies, especially essential cookies, certain parts of the Gardeners Covent Garden website may not function as intended and your overall user experience may be affected. You can also delete cookies that have already been stored on your device at any time.
