Cookie Policy
Last updated: 29 September 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Refined Landscapes uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What cookies are
Cookies are small files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as local storage, also store information on your device. They help websites function, remember preferences and measure how people use the site.
Some cookies expire when you close your browser. Others remain for a set period or until you delete them. Cookies may be set by our website or by third-party services used on it.
Cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
These support essential functions, such as website security, remembering your cookie choices and enabling features you request. They do not require your consent where they are strictly necessary for those purposes.
Our website runs on WordPress, which also uses cookies for people who log in to manage the site.
Analytics cookies
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our website. This helps us improve its content, navigation and performance.
Analytics information may include page views, traffic sources, device types, approximate locations and interactions with website pages. We review this information in aggregated reports and do not use Google Analytics 4 to identify you by name.
We only use analytics cookies where you have accepted them.
Google Analytics 4 cookies
Google Analytics 4 may use cookies including:
- _ga – helps distinguish visitors.
- _ga_<container-id> – helps maintain information about a visit or session.
Google’s default expiry for these cookies is two years, although this can be changed in the website’s analytics settings and expiry may be renewed on subsequent visits.
Google’s handling of information is explained in its Privacy Policy.
Third-party services
Our website uses the following services, which may store or access cookies or similar information on your device.
Enquiry form
The enquiry form on our Contact page runs on our own website; no outside service provides it. Alongside your message it records the page you arrived on and any campaign reference in the web address, so we know how you found us. It sets no advertising cookies.
Information you submit through the form is handled as described in our Privacy Policy.
Films – YouTube
Our films are embedded from YouTube using its privacy-enhanced mode. This limits certain uses of viewing information for personalisation, but does not mean the player is entirely free of cookies or similar technologies.
When you load or play a film, YouTube may receive information about your device and interaction with the player, and may store or access information on your device. Where consent is required, we ask for it before enabling those technologies.
You can read more in Google’s Privacy Policy.
Maps – Google Maps
Our showroom page includes a Google map showing our location. When the map loads, Google may receive information about your device and may store or access cookies or similar information.
Where these technologies require consent, the map is only enabled after you have given it. Our address and a link to directions are also provided beside the map, so you can find us without using the embedded map.
Google’s handling of information is explained in its Privacy Policy.
Fonts
Our fonts are served from our own website rather than a third-party font service. Loading them does not require your browser to contact an external font provider.
Your cookie choices
When you first visit our website, you can accept, reject or manage optional cookies through our cookie controls. Strictly necessary technologies remain available where needed to provide the services you request.
You can change your choices or withdraw consent at any time through the website’s cookie settings. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before you withdrew it.
If you reject optional technologies, some embedded features may not be available.
Managing cookies in your browser
You can also manage, block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block cookies from specific websites.
Blocking cookies or other site storage may affect the enquiry form, films, maps or other website functions. Deleting cookies may also remove your saved cookie preferences, so you may be asked to choose again.
Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy if our website, third-party services or use of cookies changes. The date at the top shows when it was last revised.
