Cookies Policy

This Cookies Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies we use on comptonphysiotherapy.co.uk, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the site owner. Similar technologies such as pixels, local storage, and tags work in comparable ways and are covered by this policy.

2. How we use cookies

We use Google Tag Manager to load Google Analytics 4 and Google Ads tags. Under UK PECR and UK GDPR, non-essential cookies are only set once you have given consent. By default, analytics and advertising cookies are denied and we use Google Consent Mode v2 to signal your choice to Google.

3. Categories of cookies we use

Strictly necessary

These are required for the site to function. They do not need consent. We use a single first-party browser local storage entry (cookieConsent) to remember your cookie choice so the banner does not reappear on every visit.

Analytics (consent required)

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. These cookies only load after you click Accept All.

Advertising (consent required)

We use Google Ads conversion tracking to measure the effectiveness of our advertising. These cookies only load after you click Accept All.

4. Cookies set on this site

Cookie names and expiries are set by Google and may change. The list above describes the cookies we knowingly load; Google Tag Manager may introduce additional cookies from Google services as they update their products.

5. Managing your cookie preferences

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the button below. This will clear your stored preference and re-open the consent banner so you can make a new choice.
