Cookie Policy

Signature Cookies is a trading name of Alex Bingleton, sole trader. Questions about this policy can be sent to hello@signaturecookies.co.uk.

Cookies and similar storage technologies can remember information on a browser or device. This website uses a small necessary local-storage record to remember your privacy preference. Optional analytics or marketing technologies remain off until you allow them.

signature-cookies-consent-v1 stores whether analytics and marketing categories were accepted or rejected. It supports the privacy control requested by the visitor and does not contain enquiry wording, contact details or an advertising profile.

Necessary storage cannot be switched off through the preference panel because the site needs to remember the choice. You can remove it through browser settings, after which the banner will appear again.

Google Analytics 4 is supported only when a valid G- measurement ID is configured and analytics consent is granted. When the ID is absent or analytics consent is not granted, the site does not load the Google Analytics script or send analytics events.

Approved events measure page type, CTA placement, stable design/package references and campaign source. They must never include personalisation wording, recipient names, contact details, delivery address, WhatsApp message or payment data.

A separate marketing choice controls approved Meta Pixel and TikTok Pixel measurement. A provider loads only when its valid environment ID is configured and marketing consent is granted. Missing IDs or denied consent produce no provider request.

These providers may receive page and campaign context plus truthful events such as a WhatsApp conversation being initiated. A WhatsApp click is not reported as a purchase, and customer names, contact details, personalised wording, delivery information and message contents are not sent.

The first banner provides equally accessible “Accept all”, “Reject optional” and “Manage preferences” actions. You can reopen the controls using “Privacy choices” in the footer.

Rejecting optional technologies does not prevent browsing designs, using WhatsApp links or opening Instagram. Withdrawing analytics consent stops future analytics dispatch and attempts to remove accessible Google Analytics cookies for this site.

WhatsApp and Instagram links leave this website. Those services may use their own cookies or device technologies after you open them, under their own privacy settings and notices. Merely loading a Signature Cookies page does not embed an Instagram feed or send a WhatsApp message.

This framework follows the ICO’s current storage and access technologies guidance. The current law includes a narrow statistical-purpose exception where all conditions are met, but this website does not rely on it: optional analytics and marketing technologies remain consent-gated.
