Cookie policy

We keep cookies to a minimum. Optional cookies are only used if you say yes.

## What cookies are

Cookies are small files a website stores on your device. Similar technology, such as your browser's local storage, works in the same way. Some are essential for a site to work. Others are optional and are only used with your permission.

## Essential cookies

These are needed for the site to work, so they don't need your consent.

- **Your cookie choice.** We store whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies (in your browser's local storage, named gwbtec-cookie-consent ) so we don't ask you on every page. It stays until you clear your browser data.

- **Contact form spam protection.** The contact page uses [hCaptcha](https://www.hcaptcha.com/privacy) to check that enquiries come from people rather than bots. It may set cookies to do this.

## Optional cookies

These are only used if you click **Accept all**.

- **Google reviews.** Our homepage shows Google reviews using [Elfsight](https://elfsight.com/privacy-policy/), a third-party service that may set cookies. If you reject optional cookies, the reviews aren't loaded.

- **Live chat.** Our live chat is provided by [Tawk.to](https://www.tawk.to/privacy-policy/), which sets cookies to keep your conversation connected and recognise returning visitors. If you reject optional cookies, the chat isn't loaded, but you can still call, email or use our contact form.

- **Analytics.** We use [Google Analytics](https://policies.google.com/privacy) to understand how many people visit the site, which pages they view and how they found us. It sets cookies to tell visits apart. We don't use it to identify you personally.

We don't use advertising cookies. If that changes, we'll update this page and ask for your permission first.

## Changing your choice

You can change your mind at any time using the **Cookie settings** link at the bottom of every page, or by clicking here . You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.
