We recognise the importance of privacy and transparency for customers of Brixton skip hire and for users browsing information about local skips and skip hire services. This notice covers both first-party and third-party cookies used for essential site functionality, improving site performance and enabling targeted marketing.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They remember settings and preferences, help the site operate securely, and enable measurement of how the site is used. For clarity, cookies can be persistent or session-based and may be placed by our own systems or by third-party partners involved in analytics or advertising.

Cookie types we use

Below is a summary of the primary cookie categories used by our Brixton skips and skip hire pages. Each type has a specific role and lifespan described for transparency.

Essential cookies: These are necessary for the website to function correctly. They enable core features such as secure browsing, form submissions and booking flows for skip hire orders. Essential cookies do not require consent because they support basic operations and the safety of the service.

• Essential — required for navigation and account/session management.
• Analytics / Performance — used to measure and report on website performance and usage.
• Marketing — used to deliver personalised content and adverts relevant to skip hire interests.

Analytics and performance monitoring

Analytics cookies help us understand how people interact with our Brixton skip hire site so we can improve load times, identify errors, optimise content and plan capacity. The purpose of performance monitoring includes:

- measuring page load and response times to enhance the user experience;
- tracking visits, user journeys and conversion points for booking and enquiry forms;
- detecting technical issues and prioritising fixes to maintain reliable skip hire services;
- aggregating usage trends so we can improve service delivery across local skip hire options.

Analytics data is generally aggregated and anonymised. Where third-party analytics providers are employed, their cookies may collect additional non-identifying metrics to support continuous improvement of the service.

User control and choices are important. You can manage cookies in several ways depending on your preferences and device:

How to control cookies — Most browsers let you accept, block or delete cookies via browser settings. You can also set preferences using cookie banners on initial visit to choose which categories to enable. Disabling analytics or marketing cookies will reduce personalised experiences but will not prevent essential functionality for skip hire processes.

Third-party cookies and opt-outs — Some cookies are set by external partners for analytics and advertising. Where possible we provide mechanisms to opt out of non-essential tracking. Blocking or removing these cookies may affect performance insights and tailored content related to skip hire promotions.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time; material changes will be reflected in the policy text and the date of effect. Continued use of the Brixton skip hire pages after updates indicates acceptance of revised terms.
