Cookie policy

The short version

Hartlepool Patios itself sets no cookies. The only cookie you may receive comes from the embedded quote form and is needed for security. We don't use analytics or advertising cookies, so there is no cookie banner.

Do we need your consent?

Strictly necessary cookies and storage do not need consent under PECR, the UK rules on cookies. Because the form only uses what it needs to work securely, there is no consent pop-up. Any future non-essential cookie would only be set with your permission.

Tracking

We do not use analytics, advertising, social media or other tracking cookies on this website.

What our pages store

No cookies come from our own pages. The only item stored under our domain is a local storage entry beginning embedded_iframe, written by the form's embed script to size and show the form.

Information the form keeps in your browser

Local storage is used by the form to record your session and the page you enquired from (keys starting v2_ and v3_), and to save your place in the form (form_progress_). Nothing expires automatically; you can remove the entries at any time.

Cookies from the quote form

One third-party cookie may appear: __cf_bm, set on the leadconnectorhq.com domain that serves the form. It is a Cloudflare security cookie that distinguishes humans from automated traffic and expires within roughly half an hour.

Cloudflare Turnstile

A Turnstile check from Cloudflare runs inside the form. It may leave a cf.turnstile local storage item on challenges.cloudflare.com, which helps verify you are human and is not used for marketing.

What we mean by cookies

A cookie is a small piece of data stored by your browser when you visit a site. Browsers also offer local storage, which works in a comparable way, so we describe both here.

Blocking cookies

Every major browser lets you clear cookies and site data, or block them altogether. Blocking may stop the quote form loading, in which case allow cookies for it while you send your enquiry.

Changes and questions

If anything here changes we will revise the page and its date. You can ask us about cookies through the website form.
