Cookie Policy

Last updated: 1 March 2026

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on www.exmoorweb.co.uk and our customer portal, and how you can manage your preferences. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They help websites work properly, improve user experience, and provide information to site owners.

We also use similar technologies such as local storage (localStorage) which stores data in your browser.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for three purposes:

  1. Strictly Necessary — required for the website and customer portal to function
  2. Analytics — help us understand how visitors use our website
  3. Functional — remember your preferences (e.g. cookie consent choice)

3. Cookies We Use

4.2 Browser Settings

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There is no industry standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. We do not currently respond to DNT signals, but we respect your cookie consent preferences as described above.
