Cookies and browser storage
Cookies are small files stored on your device. Browser storage can also remember information between visits.
This website uses browser storage to remember your analytics choice. Google Analytics cookies are used only if you accept analytics. Fonts and icons are hosted locally, and there are no embedded social-media feeds or live-chat widgets.
Your analytics choice
You can accept or reject analytics using the website's analytics notice. Google Analytics stays blocked until you accept.
Your choice is stored in this browser for 180 days so that we can respect it on subsequent visits. This preference record is used only to manage your choice.
You can change your choice at any time using Cookie settings in the footer. Rejecting analytics after previously accepting stops further collection and removes this website's Google Analytics cookies from your browser.
When you withdraw
Withdrawing after acceptance stops further analytics collection in this browser and removes this website’s Google Analytics cookies. If the _ga browser identifier is available, the website sends it to Dripmatic’s server to queue a request to Google to delete associated user data. The on-screen result distinguishes a queued request from one that could not be sent. A queued request is not confirmation that deletion has finished.
If the website cannot send a request, or you want to ask about another browser or device, email info@dripmatic.co.uk. Read our Privacy notice for how requests are handled and how long records are kept.
Storage used by this website
| Storage | Type | Purpose | Lifetime | When used |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| dripmatic_consent_v1 | Local storage | Remembers your acceptance or rejection of analytics and when that choice expires. | 180 days; expired records are removed when the website next checks them. | After you make a choice. |
| dripmatic_withdrawal_result_v1 | Session storage | Holds the result of an analytics withdrawal request across a page reload so it can be shown once. | Removed when read, or when the browser session ends. | When a withdrawal request is attempted. |
| _ga | Google Analytics cookie | Distinguishes browsers for analytics reporting. | Up to 180 days from when it is first set. Later visits do not extend it. | Only after analytics acceptance. |
| _ga_45F6E4D3QW | Google Analytics cookie | Maintains analytics session information. | Up to 180 days from its latest analytics activity. If your choice has expired or been withdrawn, the website removes it the next time you visit. | Only after analytics acceptance. |
Browsers may remove cookies or stored preferences earlier. Clearing your browser storage removes your saved choice, so the website will ask again.
What analytics measures
If you accept, Google Analytics records website activity such as page views, scrolling and referring websites, together with browser, device and approximate location information. We also record clicks on our email and telephone links.
These clicks indicate interest in contacting us; they do not confirm a completed enquiry. We do not use this setup for personalised advertising or remarketing.
Our Privacy notice explains how personal information is handled.
Website hosting
Your browser sends technical information needed to request and display pages. Our hosting service, names.co.uk, may keep technical records such as server logs. These are separate from optional Google Analytics reporting.
External links
The LinkedIn link takes you to an external website. LinkedIn may use cookies and other technologies under its own policies.
Changes and questions
If we introduce advertising or other features with different storage purposes, we will update this information and provide the relevant choices before enabling them.
