Cookie Policy for Gardeners Mortlake

This Cookie Policy explains how Gardeners Mortlake and our Mortlake gardening team use cookies and similar technologies when you interact with our digital materials. The purpose of this notice is to be clear about what cookies are placed, why they are used and how Mortlake gardeners manage and respect your preferences. This policy applies to all visitors who view content published by Gardeners Mortlake, whether on a device or shared resource.

We recognise the importance of privacy and transparency. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us deliver a reliable, personalised experience. This document outlines cookie types, your control options, and how we use some cookies for performance monitoring and site improvements.

Cookies used by Gardeners Mortlake fall into a few core categories. Some cookies are essential for the basic functioning of services provided by gardeners in Mortlake, while others provide aggregated analytics or enable targeted marketing. Below we explain what each type does and why it may be present when you access Mortlake gardening services content.

Types of cookies we use

Gardeners Mortlake uses three primary cookie types. Each type has a specific purpose and retention period depending on the function:

• Essential cookies — These are necessary for the site to operate. They support core functions like session management, secure areas and basic navigation. Without these cookies, some features from Gardeners-Mortlake may not work correctly. They do not collect personal profiling data.
• Analytics cookies — These cookies collect aggregated, anonymous information about how visitors use our pages. The data helps the Mortlake garden team identify trends, measure load times and optimise performance. Analytics cookies are used for performance monitoring to enhance speed and reliability.
• Marketing cookies — Used to tailor promotional content and measure the effectiveness of campaigns. These cookies may be set by third parties and enable content relevant to gardening interests and local Mortlake events.

Analytics and performance monitoring are particularly important for a small local service like Gardeners Mortlake. By understanding which pages are slow or which tools visitors find most useful, we prioritise improvements that benefit everyone. Performance cookies do not store personal identifiers; instead they record aggregated activity such as pages visited, load times and basic interaction patterns.

How we use cookies in practice

Cookies help us remember preferences and maintain secure sessions. For example, essential cookies keep a visitor logged in during a single session, analytics cookies inform our choices for interface updates, and marketing cookies show content that may be more relevant to gardening interests in Mortlake.

You are in control. Most browsers allow you to manage cookie settings directly: you can block cookies, delete existing cookies, or set preferences for individual websites. Choosing to block essential cookies may prevent certain features from functioning; blocking analytics or marketing cookies merely limits tracking and personalised content.

If you prefer to reduce third-party tracking, you can opt out of many analytics and advertising services using vendor opt-out tools or browser settings. Gardeners in Mortlake does not rely on invasive profiling and we limit third-party cookie usage wherever possible. We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time; any major changes will be reflected here and described with the date of revision.
