Gardener Millbank Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Gardener Millbank (also referenced as Gardener-Millbank in parts of this document) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognise you and personalise your experience. The following statements describe what types of cookies we set, why we use them and how you can control them. Please read carefully to understand how the Gardener Millbank cookie policy affects your settings, and note that below we cover essential, analytics and marketing cookie categories in clear terms.
The purpose of this statement is to outline how cookies enable basic site functions and to describe performance and monitoring practices. Essential cookies are needed for security, login, and access to protected areas. Without these cookies the basic features of the service cannot operate. The policy also explains how performance monitoring is supported by analytics cookies to help us measure and improve site speed and reliability.
This cookie notice applies to the Gardener Millbank cookie policy and related pages. It clarifies the types of cookies we use and the choices you have. We document cookie lifespans and purposes so you can make informed decisions. Wherever the term Gardener Millbank cookie policy appears, understand it refers to cookies used for functionality, analytics and marketing, and for maintaining secure, stable performance over time.
Cookie Types and Their Purposes
We use several categories of cookies to support different needs. Below is a clear list of the cookie types, their roles and typical examples of what they do:
- Essential cookies – Required for core operations such as authentication, security and session management. These cookies cannot be switched off because they make the service usable.
- Analytics cookies – Used for performance monitoring and to understand how visitors interact with the service. These cookies gather anonymous data on page visits, load times and errors so we can improve overall speed and reliability.
- Marketing cookies – Help deliver relevant promotional content and measure the effectiveness of campaigns. These may track whether a user has seen a particular message or advertisement.
Performance monitoring is a primary function of our analytics cookies: they measure page load times, resource usage and transaction latencies so we can prioritise fixes and upgrades. In short, analytics cookies help Gardener Millbank (or the Gardener-Millbank initiative) to detect slow elements, identify high-error areas and improve responsiveness and uptime for all users.
User Control and Managing Cookies
You are in control of cookie choices. You can manage cookie preferences through browser settings or via in-product settings where offered. Options typically include accepting all cookies, rejecting non-essential cookies, or selectively enabling specific categories. Note: rejecting essential cookies may prevent access to certain features.
To control cookies, follow functionality built into your browser—clear stored cookies, block third-party cookies or set persistent site preferences. For handling analytics and marketing cookies we recommend disabling tracking in your browser or using available opt-out mechanisms at the platform level. Gardener Millbank does not require personal contact details to adjust cookie preferences; preferences can be set locally in-browser.
We review cookie usage periodically to maintain compliance with privacy expectations and to refine performance monitoring practices. By maintaining transparent documentation in this Gardener Millbank cookie policy, we ensure that essential operations remain uninterrupted while providing choices for analytics and marketing tracking. Thank you for taking the time to understand our cookie approach.
