Cookie Policy
Last updated: 2 May 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use on laptoprepairspecialists.com, and how you control them. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy and forms part of how we handle your information.
1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit. Cookies let the site remember your preferences, keep you logged in, take payment securely, and measure how the site is being used so we can improve it.
2. The cookies we use
Strictly necessary
These cookies are required for the site to work. We can’t disable them without breaking core functionality (cart, checkout, login). They include:
- WooCommerce session cookies — remember your cart between pages.
- WordPress login cookie — only if you have an admin account on the site.
- Security and CSRF tokens — protect form submissions from abuse.
Functional
These cookies remember choices you’ve made, like your accepted cookie preferences. They make the site nicer to use but aren’t strictly required.
Analytics
If consented, we use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymised usage data — pages visited, time on site, where visitors come from. This helps us spot pages that are slow, broken, or hard to navigate. Analytics data is anonymised after 14 months. You can opt out at any time using the cookie banner or by enabling Do Not Track in your browser.
Advertising / remarketing
We don’t currently run paid advertising or remarketing campaigns from this site. If we add them in future, this policy will be updated and we’ll ask for fresh consent before any advertising cookie is set.
Third-party embeds
Some pages embed Google Maps (showing our shop location). Google Maps uses its own cookies; you can read about them at policies.google.com/privacy.
3. How to control cookies
The first time you visit the site you’ll see a cookie banner letting you accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can change your choice at any time by clearing your cookies for our domain and refreshing the page; the banner will reappear.
You can also manage cookies directly in your browser:
Disabling strictly necessary cookies will break parts of the site — you may not be able to add to cart, checkout, or log in.
4. Do Not Track
We respect Do Not Track browser signals. When DNT is enabled, we don’t load analytics or marketing scripts.
5. Changes to this policy
We update this policy when we add or change cookies on the site. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent change.
