Cookie Policy

Last updated: 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Knotweed Doctor Ltd uses cookies and similar technologies on this website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more generally.

By continuing to use our website, you may consent to the use of certain cookies where this is permitted by your browser settings or through our cookie banner and consent tools.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly, improve performance, remember preferences, and provide information about how visitors use the site.

Some cookies are set only for the duration of your visit, while others remain on your device for longer so that settings or preferences can be remembered when you return.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for a small number of practical reasons, including to:

• help the website function properly
• remember certain settings or preferences
• understand how visitors use the site
• improve website performance, usability, and content
• support security and help prevent misuse of website features

We do not use cookies to make automated decisions about visitors, and we do not sell cookie data to third parties.

Types of Cookies We May Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the basic operation of the website. They may be used for functions such as page navigation, security, form handling, and remembering cookie preferences. Without them, parts of the site may not work properly.

Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the website, such as which pages are visited, how people move around the site, and whether any technical issues arise. This helps us improve the structure, content, and performance of the site over time.

Functional Cookies

These cookies help remember choices or preferences so that the site can provide a smoother experience when you return.

Third-Party Cookies

Some features or embedded services may result in cookies being set by third-party providers. Where this applies, those providers may process data in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.

Analytics and Measurement

We may use website analytics tools to understand general visitor behaviour, such as which pages are most useful, how users arrive on the site, and how the website can be improved. These tools typically collect aggregated or pseudonymised usage information rather than information intended to directly identify individual users.

If analytics cookies are used, they should only be placed where appropriate consent has been given, unless they are configured in a way that does not require consent under applicable rules.

Forms, Preferences, and Website Functionality

When you use contact forms, booking tools, or similar website features, cookies or related technologies may sometimes be used to support security, prevent spam, remember form progress, or help the feature work as intended.

This can help us respond to enquiries more reliably, whether you are requesting general advice, a survey, or information about a management plan.

Managing Cookies

You can usually control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or remove cookies, and some let you manage cookies on a site-by-site basis.

Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality and may prevent parts of the site from working as expected.

If our website uses a cookie banner or consent tool, you may also be able to update your preferences there.

Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services to support website hosting, security, analytics, spam prevention, maps, embedded content, or form delivery. Where these services place cookies or process browsing-related information, their own terms and privacy notices may also apply.

Examples may include analytics providers, spam filtering services, mapping providers, video platforms, or website plugins used to improve site functionality.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the website, the tools we use, or legal requirements. Any updates will be published on this page with the latest revision date shown above.
