Cookie policy
How cookies and similar technologies are used on this website, and how you can manage your preferences.
About this document
This is a first draft prepared for AIRDM Ltd, written for a UK business and structured to work with a standard cookie consent platform. Specific cookie names and durations should be confirmed against the live site configuration once the consent tool is connected.
01 What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognise your device, remember your choices and understand how the site is being used.
Similar technologies — such as local storage, pixels and tags — perform comparable functions. In this policy, references to cookies include those technologies.
Cookies may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by a third party whose service appears on the site (third-party cookies). They may last only for your visit (session cookies) or remain for a set period (persistent cookies).
Except for those that are strictly necessary, cookies are set on this website only where you have given consent through the cookie banner.
02 Essential cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website to work. They support core functions such as page delivery, load balancing, security and protecting forms against abuse, and they record the cookie preferences you have chosen.
These cookies do not track you across other websites and are not used for advertising. Because the site cannot function properly without them, they cannot be switched off through the consent banner, though you can block them in your browser at the cost of parts of the site not working.
Typical examples on this site are a session cookie used to deliver pages securely and a preference cookie that stores your consent choices.
03 Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website — which pages are viewed, how visitors arrived, and where they encounter difficulty — so that we can improve the site.
The information collected is used in aggregate. We do not use analytics to identify individual visitors or to build marketing profiles.
Analytics cookies are set only with your consent, and you may withdraw that consent at any time. The provider currently in use is [analytics provider].
04 Functional cookies
Functional cookies remember choices you make so that the site behaves the way you expect — for example retaining information entered in the enquiry form during a visit, or remembering display preferences.
They are not essential to the operation of the website. If you decline them, the site will still work, but some conveniences will not be available.
05 Marketing cookies
Marketing cookies are used to measure the effectiveness of campaigns and, in some cases, to show relevant advertising on other websites.
AIRDM does not currently run advertising campaigns that set marketing cookies on this website. If that changes, this policy will be updated and the cookies will be presented as a separate, optional category in the consent banner before any are set.
06 Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by third parties whose services appear on this website. These may include analytics providers, embedded media players, and mapping services used to show our operating area.
Where such content is present, it is loaded only after you have accepted the relevant cookie category. Third-party providers process data under their own privacy and cookie policies, and we recommend reviewing those policies where a service is important to you.
07 Cookie duration
Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
As a guide, strictly necessary cookies on this site are session-based, with the consent preference cookie retained for up to [duration, e.g. 12 months]. Analytics cookies are retained for up to [duration, e.g. 24 months], and functional cookies for up to [duration, e.g. 12 months].
Exact names, providers and durations for each cookie are listed in the consent banner's preference panel, which is kept in step with the live site configuration.
08 Browser controls
Most browsers allow you to see which cookies are stored, delete them individually or entirely, and block them from particular sites or altogether. These controls are usually found under settings for privacy, security or site data.
Blocking all cookies will affect this and most other websites: strictly necessary cookies cannot be replaced, and some pages or forms may not work correctly.
Browsers also offer a private or incognito mode, which clears cookies at the end of the session. Guidance for each browser is available from its own help pages.
09 Managing preferences
When you first visit the website you are asked to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change that decision at any time by reopening the cookie preferences panel from the banner link, and your new choice takes effect immediately.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew it. Cookies already stored are removed or expire in line with the durations above; you can also delete them through your browser.
Personal information handled in connection with cookies is covered by our privacy policy.
