Cookie Policy

Last updated: June 2026

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your device when you visit it. They let the site remember things like your preferences, login status, and how you found us. They do not contain personal information that can identify you on their own.

2. Cookies we use

We use cookies sparingly. The table below lists every cookie set by warehouseuk.co.uk:

Strictly necessary

• PHPSESSID — keeps your form submission state and prevents abuse. Expires when you close the browser. Cannot be disabled — the site won't work without it.
• wsuk_consent — records that you've seen our cookie notice. 12 months.

Analytics (only if you consent)

• _ga, _gid, _gat — Google Analytics. Help us understand which pages are most useful so we can improve the site. Anonymised. 13 months at most.

Marketing (only if you consent)

• _fbp — Facebook Pixel. Used to measure the effectiveness of any paid advertising. 90 days. Only set if we are running an active campaign.

3. Third-party content

Some pages may embed content from third parties (e.g. Google Fonts, OpenStreetMap, YouTube). These services may set their own cookies. We have no control over third-party cookies — please consult those providers' privacy policies for details.

4. Your consent under UK GDPR & PECR

The Privacy & Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), together with the UK GDPR, require us to obtain your consent before storing any non-essential cookies on your device. On your first visit, our cookie banner asks whether you accept analytics & marketing cookies. Strictly necessary cookies are loaded regardless because the site cannot function without them.

Your choice is stored for 12 months in a small cookie called wsuk_consent. You can change it any time using the button below.

5. How to control cookies in your browser

You can also manage cookies directly in your browser:

• Browser settings — every modern browser lets you block, delete, or warn about cookies. Search "manage cookies" in your browser's help.
• Google Analytics opt-out — install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
• Do Not Track — we honour the Do-Not-Track header. If your browser sends DNT, we do not load analytics or marketing cookies, even if you've previously consented.

Blocking strictly-necessary cookies may break parts of the site (e.g. form submissions).

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when we change the cookies we use. The latest version is always available at this URL.
