This notice explains how our website may use cookies and similar technologies, including local or session storage, device identifiers, pixels and methods of accessing information on your device. These rules can apply without a traditional cookie or a person's name. A request to an outside server does not by itself prove that a cookie was set, but it may disclose information such as an IP address and must be assessed appropriately.
Necessary operation and security
We use storage or access without cookie consent only where it is essential to a service you request and the legal exception applies. Website hosting and security systems may process technical logs separately from browser storage. We do not describe every useful feature or marketing technology as strictly necessary. The exact security or session technologies, providers and durations depend on the deployed service and are kept under review.
Preferences and quiz operation
When you turn applicable anonymous service counts off from a quiz, the site stores your preference under repton_service_analytics_objection in local storage on that browser. It remains until you allow counts again or clear the relevant site data; no automatic expiry is coded. If you clear browser data or use another browser or device, you may need to make the choice again.
Quiz-stage history and temporary in-memory state support navigation during a check. They are distinct from saving a professional client case or requesting a report. Browser storage and history controls may also affect how those features behave.
Service statistics and your objection
Where we use service statistics, their permitted purpose is to produce aggregate information used only to improve the website and checks. The event fields are tool, event, step, version and London-day; the event data does not include contact details, answers or an IP-address field. Hosting and transport layers may separately process technical or security information. An aggregate application payload does not mean personal information is processed nowhere.
We rely on a statistical-purposes exception only where all legal conditions are met. The statistics must serve the permitted service-improvement purpose, use appropriate aggregation and minimisation, and have restrictions on other uses and recipients. Advertising measurement, profiling and cross-site tracking do not qualify merely because they produce statistics. Where the exception applies, we provide clear information and a simple, free way to object through the quiz preference. Where consent is required, we obtain it before the relevant storage or access.
Advertising and pixels
If advertising storage or access is present and prior consent is required, it will not run before valid consent. This includes any Meta, TikTok or similar tracking technology if used. We identify actual providers, purposes, recipients, durations and a withdrawal route in the inventory when those technologies are confirmed. Declining or withdrawing advertising consent stops the relevant processing. A marketing opt-in or report request does not replace cookie consent.
External fonts, booking and media
Google Fonts styles are referenced by pages observed on this site. A font request may convey technical information such as your IP address to Google even when no traditional cookie is involved. We assess the actual request and its purpose, and whether an appropriate choice or locally served licensed fonts should be used. We do not describe Google Fonts as an advertising pixel or assume every part of its processing is exempt.
Booking links open the external Cal.com service. Social links take you to separate platforms. Clicking a link is different from automatically loading a third-party embed. If external videos, booking widgets or other embedded technologies are added, we assess their requests and provide the appropriate information and loading or choice controls. A third party's own notice does not remove our responsibilities for integrations we choose to load.
Technology, purpose and duration
| Technology | Purpose and duration | Your choice |
|---|---|---|
repton_service_analytics_objection local storage | Remembers a browser's objection to applicable service counts until removed or relevant site data is cleared; no automatic expiry. | Turn counts off or allow them again through the quiz preference. |
| Quiz-stage history and temporary in-memory state | Navigation during a check; in-memory state lasts for the page session. Browser history follows your browser's settings. | Use browser history and site-data controls; these may affect navigation or saved choices. |
| Aggregate service-event requests | Applicable service-improvement statistics, subject to the conditions described above. Record retention follows the Privacy Notice; hosting logs are separate. | Simple free objection through the quiz preference where the statistics exception applies. |
| Hosting and security technologies, where used | Requested service operation and protection. Any storage duration depends on the relevant security or session service. | Necessary-operation exceptions apply only where their conditions are met; contact us about a particular technology. |
| Google Fonts requests | External font delivery; may convey technical request information. This is distinct from asserting that a cookie is set. | Contact us about the font delivery and applicable privacy arrangements. |
| Advertising pixels or optional embeds, if used | Provider-specific purposes and durations must be described before activation. | Prior consent where required, with accessible rejection and withdrawal. |
| External Cal.com booking and social links | A separate destination when you follow the link; that destination explains its own storage and retention. | Choose whether to open the external service and review its notice. |
Your choices
Use the service-statistics preference on a quiz to object to applicable counts. Clearing browser data may remove your saved choice, so you may need to choose again. The preference applies to that browser and device. Browser cookie controls may not stop every similar technology. Any advertising or embed consent controls we provide will make rejection and later withdrawal accessible.
Contact us at office@reptonestateplanning.co.uk if you need help or an accessible way to express a choice.
