This Cookie Policy explains how Best Choice Technologies uses cookies and similar technologies on this website, and how you can control them. You can change your choices at any time using Cookie settings (also linked at the bottom of every page).
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. Similar technologies, such as browser “local storage” and “session storage”, store small pieces of information in the same way. We refer to all of these as “cookies” in this policy.
2. Our approach
We only use what is strictly necessary for the website to work unless you agree to more. Analytics, marketing and embedded third-party content stay switched off until you allow them.
Our fonts are hosted on our own server, so loading our pages does not send your information to font providers.
3. The cookies we use
Strictly necessary (always on)
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| bct_consent | Remembers your cookie choices. | 180 days |
| bctSeen | Session storage: shows the loading animation only once per visit. | Until you close the tab |
| bctPopupHandled | Session storage: stops the enquiry pop-up from appearing again during your visit. | Until you close the tab |
| wordpress_*, wp-settings-* | Only for our staff when logged in to manage the website. | Session to 1 year |
Cookie-free visit statistics (no cookies)
We also keep anonymous visit statistics on our own server, such as pages viewed, how visitors found us, device type and approximate location. This uses no cookies and no storage on your device, does not store IP addresses, and respects “Do Not Track” and “Global Privacy Control” browser signals. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Analytics (only with your consent)
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors and measures how the website is used. | Up to 2 years |
Marketing (only with your consent)
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _fbp | Meta (Facebook) | Measures the results of our adverts. | Up to 3 months |
External media (only with your consent)
Some pages show embedded content, such as a Google Map of our office. These are blocked until you allow “External media”. Once loaded, the provider (for example Google) may set its own cookies, governed by its own privacy policy.
Analytics and marketing tools are only active once we have switched them on for this website. When a tool is not in use, its cookies are not set even if you allow that category.
4. Managing your choices
- On this website: use Cookie settings to accept, reject or change your preferences at any time.
- In your browser: most browsers let you view and delete cookies and block them for specific websites. Blocking strictly necessary storage may affect how the website works.
