Cookie Policy for Gardener Willesden

This Cookie Policy explains how Gardener Willesden and related Willesden gardening services use cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our sites and to improve your experience. It covers what cookies are, the types we use, the purpose of performance monitoring, and how you can exercise control over cookie settings when using our gardening service information or booking features.

We use cookies to make the Gardener in Willesden experience more efficient and personalised. Cookies help us remember preferences, measure site performance, and deliver relevant content. The policy below sets out the categories of cookies, including essential, analytics, and marketing cookies, and describes how each supports the Willesden gardener offering.

Essential cookies are necessary for core functionality. These cookies enable critical features such as secure access to booking forms, session management and basic navigation. Without essential cookies, aspects of the Willesden gardening service may not function properly and your experience could be limited.

Types of cookies we use

We classify cookies into three main groups so you can understand their roles:

• Essential cookies — required for security, user sessions and core site operations.
• Analytics cookies — help us understand how visitors engage with the Gardener Willesden pages, which pages are most visited, and whether users encounter errors.
• Marketing cookies — used to deliver content and promotions that may be relevant based on interests inferred from site interactions with the Willesden gardener content.

Analytics and marketing cookies are often set by third-party providers. These cookies may enable aggregated reports or targeted communications and are not essential to basic site function.

Purpose: performance monitoring and improvements

Performance monitoring cookies are a subclass of analytics cookies. They measure load times, responsiveness, and resource usage so the Gardener Willesden team can identify slow pages, optimise images and scripts for faster browsing, and prioritise areas for technical improvement. Monitoring helps reduce errors and improve booking reliability for customers of the Willesden gardening service.

These cookies collect aggregated, non-identifying information about how the site is used, for example average page load time, bounce rates on garden service pages, and frequency of form submissions. The data is used only to enhance site performance and user experience.

Performance monitoring does not create personal profiles of visitors; data is used in bulk to spot trends and technical issues and to make evidence-based improvements to the Gardener in Willesden platform.

How you can control cookies: you can manage cookie preferences directly through your browser or device settings, and by using any cookie preference tool presented on the site. To disable non-essential cookies, adjust settings or decline optional categories. Note that disabling essential cookies may affect site functionality.

Most browsers allow you to view and delete cookies via their settings. For example, you can delete all cookies, block future cookies, or clear cookies for specific sites. These controls apply to cookies set by our site and by third-party services used to support Gardener Willesden functions.

Choosing preferences: When available, a cookie preference banner will let you accept or reject categories such as analytics and marketing cookies without blocking essential cookies necessary for operation. You can change these preferences at any time while visiting the site.

Retention and third-party cookies: some cookies are session-based and expire when you close your browser; others persist for a set period. Third-party cookies used for analytics or advertising are controlled by those providers and may remain until they expire or you remove them via browser settings.

Security and data handling: Cookies do not store any payment card data or secure personal credentials. Information collected via cookies is handled in accordance with applicable data protection principles and used only for the stated purposes of functionality, analytics, and marketing related to the Gardener Willesden offerings.

By continuing to use the Gardener Willesden service pages, you consent to our use of cookies in accordance with this policy, subject to any choices you make about cookie settings. We may update this policy to reflect changes in technology or business processes; continued use after updates constitutes acceptance.
