What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the website owners.

Cookies allow websites to recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences or actions.

How We Use Cookies

runtime-grid uses cookies for the following purposes:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core functionality such as page navigation and access to secure areas. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

• cookieConsent - Stores your cookie preference choice. Duration: 1 year.

Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.

• selectedService - Temporarily stores your selected service when submitting a booking form. Duration: Session only.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This helps us improve our website.

We currently use localStorage rather than third-party analytics cookies. If we implement analytics services in the future, this policy will be updated accordingly.

Third-Party Cookies

Our website does not currently use third-party cookies. We do not embed content from social media platforms or use third-party advertising services.

Should this change, we will update this policy and ensure appropriate consent mechanisms are in place.

Managing Cookies

When you first visit our website, you will be presented with a cookie banner allowing you to accept or reject non-essential cookies.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

• See what cookies are stored and delete them individually
• Block third-party cookies
• Block cookies from specific sites

Local Storage

In addition to cookies, we use browser localStorage to store certain preferences. localStorage is similar to cookies but allows for larger amounts of data to be stored locally.

Data stored in localStorage:

• cookieConsent - Your cookie consent preference
• selectedService - Temporary storage of selected service for form submissions

You can clear localStorage through your browser's developer tools or by clearing your browsing data.
