1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, or tablet when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners useful information about how their site is performing.

2. How We Use Cookies on Our Estate Agency Website

As a property business, we use cookies to help you search for properties, save your preferences (such as bookmarked property listings or search filters), schedule property viewings, and analyze how visitors interact with our site.

We categorize our cookies into four main types:

A. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for you to move around the website and use its core features. Without them, services you request (like logging into your client portal or filling out a viewing request form) cannot be provided.

• Consent required? No. Under UK GDPR and PECR, these do not require prior consent.

B. Performance & Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our site—for example, which property listings are viewed most often, or if visitors encounter error messages. They help us measure traffic, understand how users navigate our site, and improve site speed and layout.
