Cookie Policy
1. About this policy
This policy explains how Harwood Accountants Limited uses cookies and similar technologies on this website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data more generally.
2. What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies allow a website to recognise your device, remember your preferences and understand how the site is being used. Similar technologies include pixels, tags and local storage. In this policy, references to cookies include those technologies.
3. Cookies on this website
This website does not set any cookies of its own. We do not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, tracking pixels or any technology that follows you across other websites. There is no cookie banner on this site because there is nothing for you to consent to.
Our hosting provider may set strictly necessary cookies required to deliver the site securely, for example to balance server load or to block malicious traffic. Cookies of that kind are exempt from the consent requirement under the applicable privacy and electronic communications rules, because the site cannot be delivered securely without them. They are not used to profile you or to build an advertising picture of you.
We take the same view of your data on the website as we do in our client work. We collect what we need in order to answer you, and nothing else.
4. If this changes
If we later introduce analytics, embedded content such as video or maps, or any marketing technology, we will update this policy before doing so and we will ask for your consent through a cookie banner. Non essential cookies will not be set unless and until you give that consent, and you will be able to withdraw it at any time.
5. Managing cookies in your browser
Most browsers allow you to view, delete and block cookies. Instructions are available from your browser provider:
- Google Chrome: support.google.com/chrome
- Microsoft Edge: support.microsoft.com
- Mozilla Firefox: support.mozilla.org
- Apple Safari: support.apple.com
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of this or any other website from working correctly.
6. Do Not Track
There is currently no consistent industry standard for responding to "Do Not Track" browser signals. Since we do not track you in the first place, the question does not arise on this website.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes to the technologies we use or to legal requirements. The current version is always the one published on this website and is identified by the "Last updated" date above.
