This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use and protect personal information.

What Is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your computer, tablet or mobile device when you visit a website.

Cookies can help a website function correctly, remember choices, maintain a shopping basket, understand how visitors use the site and provide relevant features.

Some cookies last only for the duration of your visit and are removed when you close your browser. These are known as session cookies.

Other cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you remove them. These are known as persistent cookies.

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are placed by the website you are visiting.

Third-party cookies are placed by another organisation whose service has been incorporated into the website. This may include services that provide payment processing, embedded content, analytics or other website functions.

Where third-party services place non-essential cookies, those cookies should only be activated after you have given the appropriate consent.

How We Use Cookies

The Landscaping Emporium website may use cookies for the following purposes:

• To make the website function correctly.

• To maintain website security.

• To remember the contents of a shopping basket.

• To support checkout and payment functions.

• To remember choices and cookie preferences.

• To understand how visitors use the website.

• To measure website performance.

• To support embedded content or external services.

• To improve the website and customer experience.

The cookies available on the website may change when website features or third-party services are added, removed or updated.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies enable essential website functions.

These may include:

• Website security.

• Network management.

• Cookie-consent preferences.

• Shopping-basket functions.

• Checkout processes.

• Account or session authentication.

• Fraud prevention.

• Payment security.

Because these cookies are necessary to provide functions requested by the visitor, they do not normally require consent. However, we still explain their use within this policy.

Disabling strictly necessary cookies through your browser may prevent parts of the website from working correctly.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices or provide enhanced features.

These could include remembering preferences, maintaining information entered during a visit or supporting optional embedded features.

Where functional cookies are not strictly necessary, they will only be used with your consent.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how people use the website.

They may collect information such as:

• Which pages are visited.

• How visitors move through the website.

• How long visitors spend on particular pages.

• Whether visitors encounter technical errors.

• The type of device or browser being used.

• The general source of website visits.

We use this information to assess and improve the website. Analytics cookies that are not strictly necessary should only be activated after you have consented to them.

Analytics information may be aggregated, but the use of cookies and similar technologies is still subject to the applicable consent requirements.

Advertising and Marketing Cookies

Advertising or marketing cookies may be used to measure marketing activity, limit repeated advertising or make advertising more relevant.

If the website uses advertising or marketing cookies, they should only be placed after the visitor has actively consented to them.

We do not require visitors to accept advertising or marketing cookies to purchase products or contact us.

Cookies Used by Our Website

The cookie table below should identify the cookies detected during the most recent website cookie audit.

The table should contain the following columns:

This table must be updated whenever a website feature, integration, analytics service, payment service or marketing tool changes the cookies used by the site.

Squarespace

Our website is hosted using Squarespace.

Squarespace may use cookies and similar technologies to provide website hosting, security, shopping-basket, checkout, account, session and cookie-consent functions.

Some Squarespace cookies are strictly necessary for the website to operate. Other cookies or integrations may depend on the features enabled on the website and the choices made through the cookie banner.

Payments and Checkout

When you purchase a product or use an online payment facility, cookies or similar technologies may be used to:

• Maintain your shopping basket.

• Process the checkout.

• Prevent fraudulent transactions.

• Protect payment information.

• Confirm whether a payment has been completed.

Payment providers may process information in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.

Only list a payment provider in this policy if that provider is currently enabled on the website.

Embedded and Third-Party Content

Some pages may include content or functionality supplied by third parties.

Examples could include maps, videos, social-media content, payment services or other embedded tools. These providers may place cookies or collect information when their content is activated.

Where consent is required, optional third-party content should not place cookies until the visitor has made the appropriate choice.

Third-party providers are responsible for their own privacy and cookie practices.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

When you first visit the website, the cookie banner allows you to accept, reject or manage non-essential cookies.

You can change your preferences by reopening the website’s cookie settings.

Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing that took place before consent was withdrawn.

Strictly necessary cookies cannot normally be disabled through the website’s consent controls because the website requires them to perform essential functions.

Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

Most browsers allow you to review, block or delete cookies through their settings.

The method varies between browsers and devices. Consult your browser’s help section for instructions.

Blocking all cookies may prevent parts of the Landscaping Emporium website from working correctly, particularly shopping-basket, checkout and preference functions.

Browser controls do not replace the consent choices provided through our website where those controls are required.

We may update this policy when:

• Website features change.

• New services or integrations are introduced.

• Cookies are added, removed or changed.

• Our legal obligations or regulatory guidance change.

• We change how information is collected or used.

The date at the top of this page shows when the policy was last updated.
