Cookie Policy
Last updated: 26 August 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how South West CPM Limited (“we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit southwestcpm.co.uk (“Website”).
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use and protect personal data.
Strictly necessary cookies may be used without consent where they are required for the Website to operate or to provide a service you have requested. Where consent is required, analytical, functional and marketing cookies will only be used after you have made an appropriate choice through our cookie consent controls.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit a website. Cookies allow a website to recognise a device and store information about a user’s preferences, choices or previous actions.
Similar technologies, such as local storage, pixels, tags and scripts, may perform comparable functions. References to cookies in this policy include these similar technologies where appropriate.
Cookies may be:
- Session cookies: Temporary cookies which normally expire when you close your browser; or
- Persistent cookies: Cookies which remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.
Cookies may also be set directly by us or by an external service used on the Website.
2. How We Obtain Consent
When you first visit the Website, you may be shown a cookie consent banner or preference tool. This allows you to accept, reject or manage non-essential cookies by category.
Consent must be freely given, specific, informed and indicated through a clear positive action. Continuing to browse the Website will not, by itself, be treated as consent to non-essential cookies.
Strictly necessary cookies do not normally require consent because they are essential for the Website to function or to provide a service you have requested. We will still provide appropriate information about these cookies.
You may withdraw or change your consent at any time using the cookie settings control made available on the Website. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
3. Types of Cookies We May Use
The cookies used on the Website may fall within the following categories:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the Website to operate securely and correctly. They may support functions such as security, network management, page navigation, form operation and recording your cookie preferences.
- Purpose: To provide essential Website functionality and remember your privacy choices.
- Consent: These cookies do not normally require consent, although they can usually be blocked through your browser. Blocking them may prevent parts of the Website from working properly.
Analytical and Performance Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Website, including which pages are visited, how visitors arrive at the Website and whether technical problems occur. Information may be collected in an aggregated or pseudonymised form.
- Purpose: To measure Website usage, identify problems and improve performance and content.
- Possible services: Website analytics services such as Google Analytics, where enabled.
- Consent: These cookies will only be used where you have given consent, unless a lawful exemption applies.
Functional Cookies
These cookies allow the Website to remember choices or preferences and provide enhanced functionality. They may remember settings such as language, display choices or previously selected options.
- Purpose: To remember preferences and provide a more personalised Website experience.
- Consent: These cookies will be used only where you have given consent, unless they are strictly necessary to provide a feature you have specifically requested.
Marketing and Targeting Cookies
These cookies may record visits to the Website, pages viewed and links followed. They may be used to measure advertising performance, limit how often an advertisement is displayed or make advertising more relevant.
- Purpose: To measure campaigns and provide advertising which may be more relevant to visitors.
- Possible services: Advertising or social-media services such as Google Ads or Meta, where enabled.
- Consent: These cookies will only be used where you have given consent.
Not every category or example listed above will necessarily be active at all times. The cookies used may change as the Website and the services connected to it are updated.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies may be placed by third-party services used on or linked to the Website. These may include analytics providers, embedded content providers, mapping services, video platforms, social-media services or advertising providers.
Third parties may use information collected through their cookies in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies. We do not control the operation of third-party cookies, although we are responsible for taking appropriate steps concerning third-party technologies used on our Website.
Where third-party cookies are not strictly necessary, they will only be activated after you have given the required consent.
Following a link to an external website may result in that website setting its own cookies. You should review the cookie and privacy information supplied by the operator of the external website.
5. How Long Cookies Remain on Your Device
The length of time a cookie remains on your device depends on whether it is a session cookie or a persistent cookie.
- Session cookies normally expire when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain until their stated expiry date or until you remove them through your browser or device settings.
Retention periods may vary according to the purpose and provider of each cookie. Where available, further information about individual cookies and their expiry periods will be provided through the Website’s cookie settings tool.
6. Managing or Disabling Cookies
