Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device, computer, tablet, or smartphone when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences over time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering information, and they help website owners understand how visitors use their site.
This policy explains what cookies we use on the Castle Street Dental Practice website, why we use them, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which sets out more detail about how we handle your personal data.
Our website uses the following types of cookies.
These cookies are essential for the website to function. Without them, services you have asked for, such as using our online booking or contact forms, cannot be provided. These cookies do not collect information that could be used for marketing or to track your browsing on other websites. Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they are always on and cannot be switched off.
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC (“Google”). Google Analytics places cookies on your device to help us understand how visitors use our website, for example, which pages are visited most, where visitors come from, and how long they stay.
This information is collected anonymously and used to improve the website. Google may transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. You can opt out of Google Analytics at any time by visiting tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or by adjusting your cookie preferences below.
Our website uses the Meta Pixel (formerly the Facebook Pixel), a tracking tool provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. The Meta Pixel allows us to measure the effectiveness of our advertising and to show relevant adverts to people who have visited our website when they use Meta’s platforms, such as Facebook and Instagram. The pixel collects information about your actions on our website (such as pages viewed). This data is shared with Meta and processed in accordance with Meta’s Data Policy.
You can opt out of Meta’s use of cookies for advertising purposes through your Facebook ad preferences at facebook.com/settings/ads, or through the Your Online Choices tool at youronlinechoices.com.
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalised features. For example, they may remember your cookie consent choices.
When you first visit our website, you will be presented with a cookie banner asking for your consent to place non-essential cookies on your device. You can choose to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences in detail.
You can update or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the “Manage Cookies” link in the footer of our website. You can also control or delete cookies directly from your browser settings.
