Cookie statement
Last updated: 23 May 2026
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are used for many purposes — keeping you logged in, remembering your preferences, measuring traffic, and so on. Some cookies are essential to a site working at all; others are optional.
What cookies do we use?
Essential cookies (always on)
These cookies are required for graphicwebparts.com to function. They cannot be disabled because without them, parts of the site stop working — you can't log in, forms can't protect against spam, and we can't remember your cookie choice itself.
| Cookie | Service | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|---|
| cc_cookie | Cookie consent banner | Records your cookie preference choices so the banner doesn't reappear on every page. | 6 months |
| ASPSESSIONID* | Web server (IIS) | Maintains your browsing session — required for shopping basket, login state, etc. | Session |
| _GRECAPTCHA | Google reCAPTCHA | Protects our contact and enquiry forms against automated spam. | 6 months |
Analytics cookies (opt-in)
If you give consent, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our website — which products are viewed most, where visitors come from, how long they stay. The data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
| Cookie | Service | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique users. | 2 years |
| _ga_5N3YCXF78M | Google Analytics | Stores session state for this specific Analytics property. | 2 years |
Google Consent Mode v2
We use Google Consent Mode v2 to ensure that no Google Analytics cookies are set on your device until you give consent. Before consent is given, Google Analytics may receive anonymous, aggregated "pings" — these contain no personal information and do not set cookies. Once you accept analytics cookies, full tracking is activated.
Third parties involved
The following third parties may process limited data when you visit our site:
- Google LLC — operator of Google Analytics. Google's privacy policy.
- Google LLC (reCAPTCHA) — anti-spam protection on our forms. Standard reCAPTCHA terms apply.
- Cloudflare Inc. — content delivery and DDoS protection for images. Cloudflare's "essential" cookies fall under our necessary-cookies category.

How to delete cookies from your browser
Independent of our cookie banner, you can also delete cookies via your browser settings. Each browser handles this differently — search "[your browser name] delete cookies" for instructions.
