The data we collect using cookies helps us understand our customers better so that we can provide a more focused user experience. Using the knowledge of your previous visits to our website, Selby Landscapes can enhance subsequent visits by tailoring our content to match your requirements.

In the unlikely event that our websites use cookies to store personal information about you, Selby Landscapes encrypts the personal data to prevent unauthorised use by anyone else.

COOKIES

A cookie is a small data file generated by a website and saved in your web browser. Its job is to remember information about you for the next time you visit. Cookies store and manage your preferences, control content and gather analytics. This is common practice across the web and apps. There are four types of cookie:

  • Strictly necessary cookies
  • Performance cookies
  • Functional cookies
  • Cookies for marketing purposes

Strictly necessary cookies allow you to move around a website and are essential for the website to function properly and cannot be disabled without severely affecting the usability of the website. The law does not require consent to use these cookies and they are always placed in your browser when you use a website.

Performance cookies assemble information about how you use a website. For example, the domain name of the website you visited before and the duration of your visit. These cookies do not collect identifiable data.

Functionality cookies remember choices you made, preferences and customisable options, like text size and fonts. They can also provide services you have requested, like sending a contact form. This data cannot be used to track how your browser is used on other websites. It can be anonymised.

Targeting and advertising cookies observe trends in your browsing and offer interest-based target advertising. They can control how ads are shown to you and measure the effectiveness of an ad campaign. They log visited websites and share this data with other organisations, like advertisers. These can only be used with website operator’s permission.

Google Analytics Cookies

This site uses Google Analytics. Google Analytics uses cookies to measure how users interact with website content, record which page a user has seen, and remember what a user did on previous pages and interactions with the website. These digital analytics can provide statistics that are helpful in assessing and improving a website. You can opt out by visiting Google Analytics or by using Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Any personal data that these cookies collect is anonymised before being used for any other purpose, you are not tracked personally, and your browsing activity on other websites is not monitored.

You can disable or turn off cookies at any time. It is usually possible to stop your browser accepting cookies, or stop it accepting cookies from a particular site. Remember, if you do turn off cookies, certain features may not work as originally intended. Most recent browsers allow you to change your cookie settings.
