Cookie Policy

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand, in aggregate, how people find and use the site so we can improve it. We do not run marketing or advertising pixels. The other third-party cookies on this site come from the embedded Google Map on our Contact page, set by Google.

We don't sell your data, and we don't use it for advertising.

A cookie is a small text file a website (or a third party embedded on a website) stores in your browser. Cookies can remember preferences, recognise you across visits, or track you across sites for advertising. They can be set by the site you're on (first-party) or by services embedded into the page, like maps and videos (third-party).

Google Maps. Our Contact page (and a few service pages) embeds a Google Maps view of the Crossley Mills workshop using a standard Google iframe. That iframe sets Google's own cookies. These are managed by Google, not by us, and they may be used by Google for the purposes set out in the Google Privacy Policy.

We don't have direct visibility into the contents of these cookies. If you'd prefer not to load them, your browser's tracking-protection settings (or an extension like uBlock Origin) can block third-party iframes.

We use Google Analytics 4 (provided by Google) to collect anonymous, aggregated statistics about how the site is used — for example which pages are popular, roughly where visitors come from, and whether people find what they need. This helps us improve the site.

Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (typically named _ga and _ga_*) to distinguish unique visitors. We have IP addresses anonymised and do not use the data to personally identify you. You can opt out across all sites using Google's official browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout, or by blocking cookies as described below.

Clicking a 'Message Daniel on WhatsApp' button opens the WhatsApp app or wa.me website on your device. We do not see anything about the click (no cookies are set by us when you click), and we only see your message once you actively send it via WhatsApp.

Beyond Google Analytics, we don't use Hotjar, Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel, or any advertising or remarketing trackers on this site.

We don't sell or share your analytics data with advertisers.

Modern browsers let you block third-party cookies entirely, or block cookies on specific sites. Look in your browser's privacy settings.

If you have any questions about cookies on this site, or you spot a third-party tool we should mention here, please email info@doubledipperpaintstrippers.co.uk and we'll update the page.
