Cookie Policy
How we use cookies on the Cobble website and how you can manage them.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the website owner.
Cookies are not programmes or apps they cannot install software on your device or carry viruses. They simply store small pieces of information that help websites remember things about you and your preferences.
2. How we use cookies
The Cobble website (eatwithcobble.com) uses cookies for the following purposes:
2.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function. Without them, parts of the site would not work properly. These cookies do not collect personal information for marketing purposes and cannot be turned off.
- Session management: Maintains your session state as you navigate between pages.
- Cookie consent: Remembers your response to our cookie banner so we don't show it on every page visit.
- Security: Helps prevent cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.
2.2 Preference cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make and provide personalised features. Examples include remembering whether you prefer the monthly or annual pricing view.
2.3 Analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website which pages are visited most, how long people stay, and where they come from. This information is used in aggregate, not to identify individual users, and helps us improve the website.
Analytics cookies are only placed after you consent to them. If you decline cookies, analytics cookies will not be placed.
2.4 Marketing cookies
At the time of writing, we do not use marketing or advertising cookies on the Cobble website. We do not serve behavioural advertising. If this changes, we will update this policy and request your consent.
3. Cookies we do not use
We do not use:
- Third-party advertising or retargeting cookies
- Social media tracking pixels
- Fingerprinting technologies
- Any cookie designed to track you across websites you didn't visit for us
4. Local storage
In addition to cookies, our website uses browser localStorage to store your cookie consent preference and certain UI preferences (such as pricing toggle state). Local storage works similarly to cookies but is stored locally in your browser and is not sent to our servers on every request.
5. How to manage cookies
You have several options for managing cookies:
5.1 Our cookie banner
When you first visit eatwithcobble.com, you'll see a cookie consent banner. You can accept or decline non-essential cookies at that point.
5.2 Browser settings
Most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings. Here are links to cookie management instructions for popular browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Cookies and site data
Please note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of the Cobble website and other websites you visit.
5.3 Do Not Track
Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal to websites. We respect DNT signals where possible and do not use analytics or preference cookies when a DNT signal is detected.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or applicable law. The "last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the most recent changes were made.
