What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the website recognise your device, remember your preferences, and understand how you interact with different pages. Some cookies are necessary for the website to function properly, while others help us improve the performance and relevance of our services.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use several types of cookies on the Gardeners Mitcham website. These include essential cookies, analytics cookies, and marketing cookies. Each type serves a different purpose and is described in more detail below.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are required for the basic operation of our website. They enable core features such as page navigation, secure areas of the site, and the correct display of content. Without these cookies, the website may not function correctly and some services that you request cannot be provided. These cookies do not collect information that identifies you personally and are usually set only in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences or filling in forms.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website. They collect information such as which pages are visited most often, how long users stay on each page, and whether any errors occur. The information gathered is aggregated and does not directly identify individual visitors. We use analytics cookies to monitor the performance of our website, to measure the effectiveness of our content, and to identify areas that may need improvement. This performance monitoring allows us to make our website more useful, reliable, and easy to navigate.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver content and advertising that is more relevant to your interests. They may be set by us or by third party partners we work with. These cookies can remember that you have visited our website and may be used to show you messages about our gardening services on other sites. Marketing cookies also help us measure the effectiveness of our promotions by tracking interactions with adverts and related content. If you do not allow these cookies, you may receive less targeted advertising.

How We Use Cookies for Performance Monitoring

Performance monitoring is an important part of maintaining and improving the Gardeners Mitcham website. Using analytics and certain functional cookies, we gather anonymised information about website speed, technical errors, and user journeys. This data allows us to identify issues such as slow loading pages, broken elements, or confusing navigation. We then use these insights to adjust layouts, refine content, and improve the overall reliability and responsiveness of our website, so that you can find the gardening information and services you need more efficiently.

Your Cookie Choices and Control

You have the right to control how cookies are used on your device. Most web browsers allow you to manage your cookie preferences through their settings. You can choose to block or delete cookies, or to receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Please note that if you disable essential cookies, some parts of the Gardeners Mitcham website may not function properly and certain services or features may become unavailable.

You can usually find cookie management options in the privacy or security sections of your browser settings. The method varies by browser, so refer to your browser's help section for detailed instructions. If you use multiple devices or browsers, you will need to set your preferences on each one.

Any changes will be posted on this page and will take effect from the time they are published.
