Cookie Policy for Garbage London
Welcome to the Garbage London cookie policy. This statement explains how Garbage London and related services use cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit the site. It sets out what cookies are, the different types we use and why we use them. It also explains your choices about cookies and how you can control them.
What are cookies and why they matter
Cookies are small text files placed on your device to store information about your visit. These files allow the Garbage-London platform to remember preferences, make the site work efficiently and measure performance. Cookies do not typically contain personal information that directly identifies you, but they do help deliver a better and more personalised browsing experience.
We categorise cookies used by Garbage London into three primary groups to make our use clear and easy to manage:
- Essential cookies — required for core functions such as secure login, session management and navigation. These cookies enable you to move around the site and use its features, and without them some services cannot be provided.
- Analytics cookies — used to collect information about how visitors use Garbage London services, which pages are most visited and how users arrive at the site. These are important for performance monitoring and improving site functionality.
- Marketing cookies — help deliver personalised content and advertising and to track the effectiveness of campaigns across sites and devices.
Essential cookies explained
Essential cookies are strictly necessary. They support features like security, accessibility and site stability. If you disable essential cookies, some parts of the GarbageLondon experience may not function properly. We do not require consent to set these necessary cookies because they are integral to providing the service you have requested.
Analytics and performance monitoring — analytics cookies help us understand usage patterns so we can improve the service. For example, we use aggregated metrics to monitor page load times, error rates and user journeys. The primary purpose is performance monitoring: to spot issues, streamline content, and prioritise technical fixes that enhance overall reliability and speed.
User control and cookie settings
You have control over cookie preferences. Options typically include:
- Accept all cookies to enable full functionality and personalised content.
- Decline non-essential cookies while allowing essential cookies to operate core features.
- Adjust settings for analytics and marketing cookies individually in your browser or via preference tools presented when you first visit Garbage London.
Many browsers let you manage cookies through their settings. Clearing cookies or using private browsing modes will remove or restrict cookie storage. Please note that blocking cookies may affect your experience. Garbage-London may also use anonymised analytics to limit the amount of personal data processed where possible.
In summary, this cookie policy explains how Garbage London cookies are used to provide secure essential services, collect anonymous analytics for performance monitoring, and support relevant marketing activities. We review cookie usage periodically and may update this policy to reflect changes in technology or legal requirements. Continued use of the service after updates indicates acceptance of any changes. Please review your cookie preferences regularly to ensure they match your privacy choices.
