Cookie Policy for thegrassyard.co.uk

This document explains the technologies used on this website to fulfill the purposes described below. These technologies enable the owner to access and store information (such as through cookies) or utilize resources (such as running a script) on a user's device during their interaction with this website.

For ease of understanding, all these technologies are referred to as "Trackers" in this document, unless a distinction is necessary. For instance, while cookies are used in both web and mobile browsers, they are not applicable to mobile apps as they are browser-based Trackers. Therefore, the term "Cookies" is used only when specifically referring to that type of Tracker.

Some uses of Trackers may require the user's consent, which can be withdrawn at any time following the instructions in this document.

This website employs Trackers managed directly by the owner (first-party Trackers) and Trackers that allow third-party services (third-party Trackers). Unless stated otherwise, third-party providers may access the Trackers they manage.

The duration of Cookies and other similar Trackers can vary based on the settings defined by the owner or the relevant provider. Some may expire when the user's browsing session ends.

Users can find more detailed and up-to-date information on Tracker duration and other relevant details in the linked privacy policies of third-party providers or by contacting the owner.
