Cookie Policy
Cookies: A Brief Explanation
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to improve efficiency, and to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies may be “session” cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.
This Cookie Policy explains which cookies the Taldon website uses, why they are used, how long they persist, and how you can manage your preferences. It should be read alongside the Privacy Policy.
Taldon operates this website from the United Kingdom and applies cookie practices in accordance with the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR. Where non-essential cookies are used, consent is requested before they are set.
Cookies in Use on This Website
Functional Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function. They enable core features such as navigation, form processing, and the storage of your cookie consent preference. Without them, services you have requested cannot be provided. These cookies do not require your consent.
Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors interact with the website, including which pages are visited most frequently and how users navigate between them. Data is aggregated and anonymised. These cookies are set only where you have consented to analytics tracking.
Third-Party Service Cookies
The contact page embeds a Google Maps iframe to display the practice location. When this content loads, Google may set cookies on your device in accordance with their own privacy policies. These are set only where map content is rendered and where consent has been provided. Taldon does not control third-party cookies.
How to Control and Remove Cookies
When you first visit the Taldon website, a consent banner is displayed. You may accept all cookies, accept only partial categories, or restrict cookies to strictly functional cookies only. Your preference is saved in a consent cookie and applied on all subsequent visits.
You may change your cookie preferences at any time by selecting “Cookie Settings” in the footer of any page. This re-opens the consent banner and allows you to update your selection.
In addition to the consent banner, you can manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. The process varies by browser:
Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data. You can block third-party cookies or clear all cookies.
Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. You can manage exceptions or clear all stored cookies.
Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data. You can remove cookies individually or remove all at once.
Settings → Privacy, search, and services → Cookies and site permissions. You can configure cookie handling per site.
Please note that disabling or removing cookies may affect the functionality of the website. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled through the consent banner as they are required for the site to operate.
Analytics Opt-Out and Policy Updates
For Google Analytics specifically, you may opt out of tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. This prevents data about your visit from being sent to Google Analytics across all websites where it is in use.
This Cookie Policy is reviewed at minimum annually. Where new cookies are introduced or existing cookies are changed, this policy will be updated and the revision number at the top of the page will be incremented. We do not provide individual notice of policy updates; continued use of the website following an update constitutes acknowledgement of the revised policy.
