Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how STL Lofts & Extensions Ltd ("STL Build", "we", "us" or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at https://stlbuild.co.uk/ (the "Website").
We use cookies to help ensure that our Website works properly, to improve your experience and, where applicable, to understand how visitors use our Website.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit a website.
Cookies allow a website to recognise your device and can be used for a number of purposes, including remembering preferences, maintaining website functionality, improving performance and understanding how a website is used.
Some technologies that perform similar functions to cookies, such as pixels, tags, local storage and other tracking technologies, may also be covered by this policy.
2. How we use cookies
We may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the Website to operate correctly and securely.
They may be used to:
enable core website functionality;
maintain website security;
prevent fraudulent or malicious activity;
ensure that pages and features function correctly;
remember choices that are necessary for the operation of the Website; and
support the delivery of the Website through our hosting and technical service providers.
These cookies are generally exempt from consent where they are strictly necessary to provide a service that you have requested.
Analytics and performance technologies
Where analytics tools are used, they may help us understand how visitors interact with our Website, for example:
which pages are visited;
how visitors arrive at our Website;
how the Website performs;
which areas of the Website are most useful; and
whether improvements to the Website are working.
Where an analytics technology uses cookies or similar technologies that require consent under applicable law, we will ask for your consent before using it.
Where analytics are provided without the use of cookies or persistent identifiers, they may operate without cookie consent where permitted by applicable law.
Marketing and advertising cookies
We do not intend to use cookies for targeted advertising or behavioural advertising unless this is clearly explained to you and, where required by law, you have provided your consent.
If we introduce marketing or advertising cookies in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy and provide an appropriate consent mechanism.
3. What cookies do we currently use?
Our Website is designed to minimise the use of cookies and similar tracking technologies.
At the time this policy was prepared, we have not intentionally configured the Website to use non-essential advertising or behavioural tracking cookies.
The exact cookies and technologies used by the Website may change from time to time as we update our Website, hosting arrangements, analytics or third-party services.
Where non-essential cookies are used, we will provide appropriate information about them, including their purpose and, where applicable, their duration and provider.
4. Third-party services
Some elements of our Website may be provided by third-party service providers. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies as part of the services they provide.
Third-party services may include, for example:
website hosting and infrastructure services;
analytics services;
embedded content;
security and anti-spam services; and
social media or other external services.
Where a third party uses non-essential cookies or similar technologies on our Website, we will obtain your consent where required by applicable law.
Third parties may process information in accordance with their own privacy policies and terms. We recommend reviewing those policies where appropriate.
5. Your cookie choices
Where cookies require consent, you can choose whether to accept or reject them.
You should be given the ability to:
accept non-essential cookies;
reject non-essential cookies; and
change or withdraw your cookie preferences where this functionality is available.
You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, although doing so may affect how some websites function.
Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of our Website from operating correctly.
6. How we obtain consent
Where consent is required, we will ask for it before placing non-essential cookies or using similar technologies on your device.
Consent must be given through a clear affirmative action. Simply continuing to browse or use the Website does not constitute consent to non-essential cookies.
You can withdraw or change your consent where a cookie preference mechanism is provided.
7. How long cookies remain on your device
Cookies may be either:
Session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser; or
Persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.
The length of time a particular cookie remains on your device depends on its purpose and configuration.
Where we use cookies that require consent, we will provide information about their duration as part of our cookie information.
8. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our Website, the cookies and technologies we use, or changes in legal or regulatory requirements.
When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this policy.
We recommend checking this page periodically to make sure you are aware of any changes.
