This cookie policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and the options available to you when visiting the Phil Carr website. Optional analytics and marketing cookies are used only if you accept them in the cookie choices panel.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, improve performance, and provide insights into how visitors use the site.
How We Use Cookies
I use cookies to keep the website running smoothly, understand how visitors navigate the site, and improve the overall experience. Cookies may be set by the site or by trusted third-party services that support analytics and performance.
Types of Cookies We Use
- Essential cookies – required for core site functionality such as navigation and security.
- Performance cookies – help us understand how visitors interact with the site so content and usability can be refined.
- Functionality cookies – remember choices like your preferred settings to provide a more personalised experience.
Optional measurement cookies
You can choose analytics and advertising separately. If you accept analytics, Google Analytics 4 may set cookies to measure website visits and content performance. If you accept advertising, Google Ads may set cookies to measure advertising performance. Each optional tag loads only after you accept its category. Rejecting either category does not stop you using the website or sending an enquiry. Use Cookie settings at the bottom of any page to change your choices. Rejecting later stops this site's tags for that category from sending new events. You can clear existing optional cookies through your browser settings.
Website chat cookie
When website chat is available, the essential WEBSITECHAT cookie keeps your conversation separate from other visitors and protects chat submissions. It expires after one day, although the server session may expire sooner. The cookie contains a random session reference, not your messages or contact details. Deleting or blocking it can prevent you from returning to the same conversation. Chat messages remain subject to the retention period in our privacy policy.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Use Cookie settings at the bottom of any page to accept or reject optional cookies. You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being used. Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of certain parts of the website.
