Cookie Policy

01

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites function properly, to store user preferences, and to provide information to the site operators about how the site is being used.

Cookies may be "session cookies" (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them). They may be set directly by the site you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services that the site uses.

Under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), cookies that are not strictly necessary for the site to function require your consent before being set. The Dorex Letters cookie banner at the bottom of this page provides granular consent options.

02

Overview of Cookies Used

Dorex Letters uses cookies in three categories: strictly necessary (functional), analytics, and third-party. The table below summarises the cookies in use at the time this policy was last updated.

03

Functional Cookies (Strictly Necessary)

Functional cookies are essential for the basic processing of the website. They include the cookie that stores your consent preference (so the banner does not reappear on every page), and the session cookie that maintains navigation continuity across pages.

These cookies do not collect personally identifiable information and are set only in response to actions you take — such as accepting or declining the cookie banner. Under PECR, strictly necessary cookies do not require consent, but Dorex Letters discloses them here for full transparency.

These cookies cannot be disabled via the cookie preference panel without significantly degrading your experience of the site.

04

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies are used to understand how visitors interact with the Dorex Letters website. The data collected is anonymised — individual visitors are not identified — and is used solely to inform editorial decisions such as which article formats receive the most engagement and which navigation paths are most commonly used.

Analytics cookies require your consent and are only set if you select "Accept All" or "Accept Partial" in the cookie banner. Selecting "Functional Only" prevents analytics cookies from being set.

Analytics data is not shared with third parties for advertising or profiling purposes.

05

Third-Party Cookies

The contact page at dorex.info includes an embedded Google Maps component. When this map is loaded, Google may set cookies on your device. These cookies are governed by Google's own cookie and privacy policies, not by this document.

Dorex Letters does not use advertising cookies, social media tracking pixels, or retargeting technologies. No third-party advertising platform receives data about visitors to this website.

Third-party cookies from Google Maps are only active on the contact page and only when the map component is loaded. They require your consent and are blocked if "Functional Only" is selected in the cookie banner.

06
