1. About this policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Tidewater Estates Ltd (“Tidewater”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on tidewaterestates.co.uk. It should be read alongside our Privacy Notice.
2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files stored on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit a website. Cookies can enable a website to recognise a device, remember preferences, provide security, understand how visitors use the website and support other website functionality. Some cookies operate only for the duration of a browser session. Others remain on a device for a defined period.
Cookies may be first-party cookies, set by Tidewater’s website; or third-party cookies, set by external service providers used by the website. Similar technologies, including local storage, pixels, tags and scripts, may perform related functions.
3. How we use cookies
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function correctly or securely. They may be used for purposes including website security; network management; load balancing; remembering cookie-consent choices; maintaining essential website sessions; protecting forms against abuse; and providing functionality specifically requested by a visitor. Because these technologies are strictly necessary to provide the website or requested functionality, they may not require consent.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. They may provide information such as number of visitors; pages viewed; how visitors reached the website; approximate session duration; device and browser information; and general website-performance information. Where consent is legally required, analytics cookies will not be activated until you have provided that consent.
Functional cookies
Functional cookies may enable additional website features or remember choices made by a visitor. Where these cookies are not strictly necessary, they will only be used in accordance with applicable consent requirements.
Marketing or advertising cookies
If Tidewater uses advertising, remarketing or audience-measurement technology, associated cookies may be used to understand the effectiveness of campaigns or provide more relevant communications. These cookies are not strictly necessary and will not be activated unless the required consent has been provided.
Third-party and embedded-content cookies
Some website functions may be provided by external services. Examples could include embedded videos; maps; external forms; social-media functions; investor assessment tools; security services; or other embedded applications. Those providers may use cookies or similar technologies. Where these are non-essential, they should not be activated until the required consent has been provided.
4. Cookies currently used
The definitive current list of cookies and similar technologies used by this website is displayed within the website’s Cookie Settings tool. For each cookie, the website identifies the cookie name; provider; purpose; category; whether it is first-party or third-party; and duration. Because cookies may change when website plugins, analytics systems or third-party integrations are changed, the Cookie Settings tool is maintained as the live technical record of cookies currently in use.
5. Your choices
When you first visit the website, you are provided with a choice concerning non-essential cookies. You may accept non-essential cookies; reject non-essential cookies; or select particular categories where this functionality is provided. Rejecting optional cookies will not prevent access to the core website. Strictly necessary cookies may continue to operate because they are required for the website or functionality you request.
6. Changing your preferences
You can change your cookie preferences at any time through the Cookie Settings link available on the website. Withdrawing consent will not affect processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn. You may also use your browser settings to delete or block cookies. Blocking all cookies through your browser may affect the operation of some website functions.
7. Third-party services
Third-party providers may operate their own cookies and process information according to their own privacy documentation. Where third-party technology is used, Tidewater will take reasonable steps to ensure that its website configuration reflects applicable cookie and privacy requirements.
8. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when website functionality changes; new technology is introduced; service providers change; or legal or regulatory requirements change. The latest version will be displayed on this page.
