Cookie Policy
Last updated: 3 February 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Perry of Oakley Limited (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on perryofoakley.co.uk and any associated services we operate or link to (for example, our quotation portal where available).
It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, phone) when you visit a website. They help websites work properly, remember your preferences, and (where enabled) help website owners understand how the site is being used.
Cookies may be:
-
Session cookies (deleted when you close your browser), or
-
Persistent cookies (remain until they expire or you delete them).
We may also use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, and local storage. For simplicity, we refer to all of these as “cookies”.
2. Legal basis and consent (UK)
Under UK privacy rules (UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, “PECR”):
-
Strictly necessary cookies can be used without consent because they’re required for the site to function (for example, security and cookie preference saving).
-
Non-essential cookies (such as analytics and marketing cookies) require your consent before being set.
You can give, refuse, or withdraw consent at any time using the cookie settings tool on our website.
3. How we control cookies
3.1 Cookie settings on our website
We use a cookie consent tool (“cookie banner/settings”) that allows you to:
-
accept cookies,
-
reject non-essential cookies, and/or
-
change your preferences later.
If you want to change your settings after your first visit, use the cookie settings option available on the site (often accessible via the banner, a “settings” link, or similar).
3.2 Browser controls
You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note: blocking all cookies (including strictly necessary ones) may cause parts of the website to stop working properly.
4. Types of cookies we use
We use the following categories:
A) Strictly necessary cookies
These are required for the website to function, for example:
-
remembering your cookie preferences,
-
basic security and session management.
B) Preferences cookies
These remember choices you make (for example language or display preferences). (We only use these if enabled/required by site features.)
C) Analytics cookies (optional, consent-based)
These help us understand how visitors use the website (for example, which pages are visited most), so we can improve performance and content. We only use analytics cookies if you consent.
D) Marketing cookies (optional, consent-based)
These are used to measure marketing effectiveness and/or show relevant content across platforms. We only use marketing cookies if you consent.
E) Third-party/embedded content cookies (optional, consent-based)
Some pages may include embedded content (for example videos, maps, or social feeds). Those third parties may set cookies. Where required, we’ll ask for your consent.
5. Cookie table
The exact cookies can change over time due to platform and service updates. The table below lists cookies commonly used on WordPress sites and cookie-consent tools like ours, plus cookies that may appear if certain optional features are enabled.
