Skip Hire Harrow (referred to here as our service) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve how we deliver skip hire services in Harrow. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, why we use them and how they help us manage performance for customers who use our Harrow skip hire offerings.

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by your browser when you visit websites. They enable basic functions and help us remember preferences. In the context of skip hire in Harrow, cookies support the user experience, allow secure sessions and collect aggregated data for service improvement without identifying you personally.

Legal basis: we use cookies where necessary for our legitimate interests in delivering and improving Harrow skip hire services, and when consent is required we will request it. Essential cookies are necessary for the site to function; other types require your choice.

Types of cookies we use

We categorise cookies into three main groups so you know what to expect when interacting with the Harrow skip hire site and digital touchpoints.

• Essential cookies — required for basic operations like secure browsing and session management.
• Analytics cookies — used to measure performance and understand how people use our Harrow skip services.
• Marketing cookies — enable personalised content and advertising; these may come from third parties.

Essential cookies maintain security and site integrity for skip hire Harrow users. They are typically session-based or short-lived and do not track you across other websites. Examples include authentication tokens and security checks that prevent fraudulent form submissions.

Analytics and performance monitoring cookies help us understand how people interact with our skip hire in Harrow pages.

• Page load and response times
• Feature usage and navigation flows
• Error rates and broken links that affect Harrow skip hire booking experiences

Third-party cookies: we may permit trusted service providers to set cookies for analytics or marketing. These third parties operate under their own privacy terms; we only allow vendors who meet our standards for data protection when supporting Harrow skip services.

User control: you have meaningful choices. You can manage cookie preferences at any time via the cookie banner, or by adjusting your browser or device settings to block or delete cookies. Blocking essential cookies may limit functionality; other cookie types can be declined without preventing access to basic information about skip hire Harrow services.
