This Cookie Policy explains how Ambershore Pix Limited uses cookies and similar technologies on this website.
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy. It applies to visitors using ambershorepix.co.uk, including visitors from the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your browser, device, or computer when you visit a website. Cookies can help a website work properly, remember your preferences, measure website performance, protect services from abuse, and support third-party content or services.
In this policy, “cookies” also includes similar technologies such as pixels, tags, scripts, embedded content, local storage, and other technologies that store or access information on your device.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
- Strictly necessary cookies — required for the website to work, to keep the website secure, or to remember your cookie choices.
- Statistics cookies — used to understand how visitors use the website and to improve website performance.
- Preference or functional cookies — used to remember choices or support third-party functionality.
- Marketing cookies — used for advertising, retargeting, social media, or measuring marketing activity, where applicable.
We do not use non-essential cookies unless you have given consent through the cookie banner, except where the law allows a cookie to be used without consent because it is strictly necessary.
3. Legal basis for using cookies
Under UK cookie law, including the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003, we must provide clear information about the cookies we use and obtain consent before setting non-essential cookies.
Where cookies involve personal data, we also comply with the UK GDPR and, where applicable, the EU GDPR. Consent must be freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent where they are essential to provide the website or a service requested by you. Statistics, preference, marketing, and other non-essential cookies are only used where consent is required and has been given.
