What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website. They help the website recognize your device and store certain information about your visit. Cookies can be session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.

Cookies do not typically contain information that directly identifies you, but the information they store and retrieve may be associated with you depending on how you use our website and the data we hold.

Types of Cookies We Use

Gardeners Hampton uses several categories of cookies to operate and improve our website and to support our services.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly. Without these cookies, key features of the site may not be available. They enable basic operations such as page navigation, access to secure areas, and the correct display of pages and forms.

These cookies are usually set in response to actions you take on the website, such as logging in, filling in forms, or setting your privacy preferences. Because they are strictly necessary for the website to work, you cannot disable essential cookies through our website, but you can set your browser to block them. However, doing so may cause parts of the site to stop working properly.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies allow us to understand how visitors use the Gardeners Hampton website. They collect information such as which pages are visited, how long users stay on each page, which links are clicked, and whether users encounter any errors.

We use this information in aggregated and anonymous form to monitor website performance, measure the effectiveness of our content, and make improvements to usability. These cookies help us ensure that our website is fast, responsive, and relevant for visitors. Disabling analytics cookies may affect our ability to analyze performance, but it will not affect your ability to use the site.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to your interests and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising. They may be set by Gardeners Hampton or by trusted third parties that provide advertising and remarketing services on our behalf.

These cookies can help us understand which services or pages you have shown interest in so that we can present more tailored information and offers. Marketing cookies may also limit the number of times you see a specific advertisement and help us track the performance of our campaigns. If you choose to disable marketing cookies, you may still see advertisements, but they may be less relevant to you.

Performance Monitoring and Website Improvement

One of the main purposes of using analytics and certain functional cookies is performance monitoring. Gardeners Hampton uses these cookies to track loading times, page responsiveness, and error rates. This information allows us to detect technical issues, optimize images and code, and improve navigation so that your experience is as smooth as possible.

By monitoring performance, we can identify popular content, refine the structure of our pages, and ensure that our website performs reliably across different browsers and devices.

You can typically manage cookies by using the settings or preferences menu in your browser. Options may include blocking all cookies, blocking cookies from specific sites, accepting only first party cookies, or clearing cookies when you close your browser. If you choose to block certain cookies, please be aware that some features of the Gardeners Hampton website may not function as intended.

You can also manage certain categories of cookies, such as marketing or analytics cookies, through privacy or security settings on your device or within your browser.
