This policy explains what cookies and similar technologies this website uses, why we use them, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as local storage, save small pieces of information in your browser. They help websites work properly, remember your choices, and understand how the site is used.
The cookies and storage we use
Essential (always active). These are needed for the site to work and to remember your cookie choice. They do not track you.
- shdc_consent (local storage) — records whether you accepted or rejected analytics cookies, so we don’t keep asking. Stays until you clear it.
Analytics (optional — only set with your consent). We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site, such as which pages are most helpful. IP addresses are anonymised, and we use Google’s Consent Mode v2, which means these cookies do not fire until you explicitly choose “Accept All” on our cookie banner.
- _ga — distinguishes visitors (Google Analytics). Lasts up to 2 years.
- _ga_* — maintains session state (Google Analytics). Lasts up to 2 years.
We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels or third-party marketing cookies on this website, and we never sell your data.
Changing your choice
You can withdraw or change your consent at any time:
Clicking this clears your saved choice and shows the cookie banner again so you can decide afresh. You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings — see your browser’s help pages, or visit aboutcookies.org.uk for guidance. Blocking essential cookies may affect how the site works.
Third parties
Google may process analytics data outside the UK. Where that happens, transfers are protected by the safeguards required by UK data protection law. You can read more in Google’s privacy policy, and opt out of Google Analytics across all websites using Google’s browser add-on.

If you have any questions about our use of cookies, contact us on 01282 965286 or teeth@stationhousebarnoldswick.com. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint or on 0303 123 1113.
