Storage Eel Pie Island Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Storage Eel Pie Island uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It describes the types of cookies we use, why we use them, and the choices you have to control their use. By continuing to browse our website after seeing a cookie notice, you agree that we can place cookies on your device as described in this policy.
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device, remember your preferences, and understand how you interact with pages and features. Some cookies are set directly by us, while others may be set by third parties that provide services to support our website functionality, analytics, or marketing.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use three main categories of cookies on the Storage Eel Pie Island website: essential cookies, analytics cookies, and marketing cookies. Each category serves a different purpose and may have a different duration, such as being deleted when you close your browser or remaining for a set period.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the basic operation of our website. Without these cookies, certain core features would not function properly. For example, essential cookies help us remember your cookie preferences, maintain the security of the site, and allow forms or account-related features to operate reliably. These cookies do not track your browsing activity on other websites and are not used for marketing purposes. Because they are required for the website to function, you cannot disable essential cookies through our site, although you can block them in your browser settings, which may cause parts of the site to stop working correctly.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Storage Eel Pie Island website. They collect information such as which pages are visited, how long visitors stay, which features are used, and any error messages that might appear. This information is usually aggregated and does not directly identify you. We use analytics cookies to monitor performance, identify popular content, and improve navigation and page loading times.
Performance monitoring relies on analytics cookies to highlight trends, such as slow loading pages or sections with high exit rates. By analysing this data, we can refine our website structure, content, and technical setup so that you experience a faster and more reliable service. You can choose to disable analytics cookies, but this may limit our ability to understand and improve how the site performs.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to deliver more relevant content and advertising based on your interests. They may be set by us or by carefully selected third parties that provide advertising or social media services. Marketing cookies can help measure the effectiveness of campaigns by tracking which adverts you see and whether you interact with them. They may also be used to build a profile of your interests so that advertisements on our site or on other websites are better aligned with what you are likely to find useful.
If you choose to disable marketing cookies, you will still see advertising, but it may be less relevant to your interests and may not be tailored to your previous interactions with our website.
How We Use Cookies for Performance Monitoring
Performance monitoring is an important part of how we maintain and improve the Storage Eel Pie Island website. Through analytics and certain essential cookies, we gather information about site speed, uptime, navigation paths, and technical errors. This helps us ensure that pages load quickly, that the site remains stable, and that any issues can be identified and resolved promptly.
We may review aggregated performance data to test new features, optimise images and scripts, and adjust layout or content to make the overall experience smoother. Performance monitoring does not focus on individual users, but on patterns of use and technical behaviour that can inform meaningful improvements.
User Control and Cookie Management
You have several options for controlling cookies on the Storage Eel Pie Island website. When you first visit, you may see a notice or banner that allows you to accept or manage different categories of cookies. You can typically choose to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences for analytics and marketing cookies.
In addition to on-site controls, you can manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view the cookies stored on your device, delete them, block all cookies, or block cookies from specific sites. Please note that if you choose to block essential cookies, some features of the website may not function as intended, and your user experience may be affected. You may also need to reset your preferences each time you visit if cookies are disabled or regularly cleared.
Retention and Updates
Cookies are stored for different periods depending on their purpose. Some are session cookies, which are removed when you close your browser, while others are persistent cookies that remain until they expire or you delete them. We periodically review our use of cookies to ensure they remain necessary and proportionate for our services and performance monitoring.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or how we operate our website. Any updates will be published on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how cookies are used on the Storage Eel Pie Island website.
