Cookies Policy
Last updated: 11 September 2026
This Cookies Policy explains how boilers.repair ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on boilers.repair (the "Site"), in line with the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, and to provide information to the website owner. Similar technologies (such as tracking pixels and local storage) work in comparable ways and are covered by this policy.
2. Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the Site to function properly (for example, remembering your cookie consent choices) and cannot be switched off. As they are essential, they do not require your consent under PECR.
Analytics cookies
We use Google Analytics (or similar analytics tools) to understand how visitors use the Site — for example, which pages are viewed, how long visitors stay, and how they arrived at the Site. This helps us improve the Site's content and performance. These cookies collect information in an anonymous or pseudonymous form where possible.
Advertising and retargeting cookies
We use advertising and retargeting cookies, including from Google Ads and Meta (Facebook) Pixel, to:
- Measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns; and
- Show you relevant adverts for our services when you visit other websites or platforms (this is sometimes called "retargeting" or "remarketing").
These cookies track your browsing activity across the Site and may be linked with your activity on other sites to build a profile of your interests for advertising purposes.
3. Third parties who set cookies on our Site
| Provider | Purpose | More information |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | Website usage analytics | Google Privacy Policy |
| Google Ads | Advertising and retargeting | Google Privacy Policy |
| Meta Pixel (Facebook) | Advertising and retargeting | Meta Privacy Policy |
These providers may set their own cookies and process data according to their own privacy policies, linked above. Some of these providers may transfer data outside the UK/EEA, including to the United States.
4. Your consent choices
Because analytics and advertising cookies are not strictly necessary, UK law requires us to ask for your consent before setting them. When you first visit the Site, you should see a cookie banner allowing you to:
- Accept all cookies (necessary, analytics, and advertising);
- Reject non-essential cookies (only strictly necessary cookies will be set); or
- Manage preferences, choosing which categories to allow.
You can change your preferences at any time by [reopening the cookie settings tool / clearing your cookies via your browser settings — update this to match whatever cookie-consent tool you use, e.g. a "Cookie Settings" link in your footer].
5. Managing cookies through your browser
In addition to our cookie banner, you can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- See what cookies are stored and delete them individually;
- Block third-party cookies;
- Block cookies from particular sites; or
- Block all cookies.
Note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites. Guidance for common browsers:
6. Opting out of specific advertising networks
You can also opt out of interest-based advertising directly with some providers:
- Google: Google Ads Settings
- Meta: Meta Ad Preferences
- Industry-wide opt-out: Your Online Choices (EU/UK)
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies and technologies we use. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
