Cookies on Drain Filling
This page tells you what cookies are, how drainfilling.co.uk handles them, which third-party services may store their own files on your device, and the steps available to you for managing cookie storage.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a compact piece of text data that a web server asks your browser to hold locally on your device, whether that is a phone, tablet or desktop computer. The file typically contains something modest, such as a session token or a saved preference. Each time you request another page from the same website, your browser can transmit that stored data back, allowing the site to connect successive page requests into one recognisable visit. Cookies that are set as session-only remove themselves once you close the browser tab or window. Persistent cookies carry an expiry date and remain on your device until that date arrives or until you delete them manually.
Cookies this site sets
Drain Filling does not place any tracking cookies or advertising cookies on your device. No file is set to follow your browsing activity across the web, build a profile of your interests, or serve targeted adverts. Any cookies this site does set are strictly functional, for example to help a form work correctly during your visit.
Cookies from outside services
Certain tools embedded in this website are operated by third parties, and those providers may set their own cookies on your device according to their individual policies. The enquiry form on this site is handled by Basin. When you interact with that form, Basin may store data in your browser under its own terms. Drain Filling does not govern what those external services store, so we encourage you to review the relevant provider's cookie or privacy information directly if you wish to understand what they may place on your device.
Controlling cookies
Every modern browser includes built-in settings that let you decide how cookies are handled. You can configure your browser to notify you before accepting a cookie, to refuse cookies from all or specific sites, or to delete cookies that are already stored. The exact steps vary between browsers, so consult the help section of whichever browser you use for precise guidance. Please be aware that restricting certain cookies may affect the way some features on this or other websites behave. If you have any questions about how this site handles cookies, please use the enquiry form to get in touch.
