This Cookie Policy explains how GridlingtonAI uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on gridlingtonai.site. We are committed to transparency about the data we collect through cookies and to providing you with meaningful choices about how that data is used. Please read this policy alongside our Privacy Policy for a complete picture of how we handle your data.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember information about your visit, such as your preferred settings or whether you have previously consented to cookies. Cookies operate only within the parameters defined by the website that places them — they cannot access other files or programs on your device, and they pose no security risk in normal operation. Each cookie is specific to the site that placed it and cannot be read by other websites.
We use a minimal and purposeful approach to cookies on gridlingtonai.site. We collect only what is necessary to operate the site correctly and to understand how visitors interact with our content in aggregate. We do not use cookies to serve advertising, build commercial profiles, or track individual users across third-party websites. Where we use analytics cookies, all data collected is anonymised before processing.
| Type | Purpose | Duration | Consent Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Enables fundamental website functions such as page rendering, navigation, and form security. Without these cookies, the site cannot function correctly and they therefore do not require consent. | Session | No |
| Functional | Retains your cookie consent decision so the banner is not shown on every visit. This improves your experience without tracking any behaviour beyond your preference. | 12 months | No |
| Analytics | Gathers anonymised data on how visitors navigate our website, which pages are most visited, and where visitors come from. This helps us improve content quality and site structure. No individual is identified by this data. | Up to 24 months | Yes |
| Performance | Monitors technical metrics including page load times and error events to help our team identify and resolve issues that could affect your experience when browsing the site. | Session | Yes |
You may accept or decline non-essential cookies using the consent banner displayed at the bottom of our website.

Most modern browsers also provide settings that allow you to control which cookies are accepted at the browser level. Please note that disabling certain cookies may limit functionality on this and other websites.
If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy or wish to exercise your rights in relation to data collected through cookies, please contact us at [email protected] or by post at 30 St Mary Axe, London EC3A 8BF, United Kingdom. We aim to respond to all enquiries within five working days.
