This Cookie Policy explains how Temporary Traffic Solutions Ltd ("TTS", "we", "us" or "our") uses cookies, local storage and similar technologies on www.temptraffsolutions.co.uk.
It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains more generally how we collect, use, store and protect personal information.
1. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
Cookies are small text files that websites may place on your device when you visit them. They can be used for purposes such as remembering preferences, maintaining website functionality, measuring website usage or supporting advertising.
Websites can also use similar technologies, including browser local storage. Local storage allows a website to store a small amount of information in your browser without using a traditional cookie.
2. How TTS Uses These Technologies
The TTS website uses necessary browser storage to remember your privacy choices. Optional analytics and marketing technologies are controlled through the website's consent system and are not activated unless you give the appropriate consent.
3. Cookie and Consent Categories
| Category | Purpose | Consent required? |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Required for core website operation, security and remembering your privacy choices. | No. These cannot be disabled where they are required for the website to function properly. |
| Analytics | Used to help us understand how visitors use the website and to measure website performance and effectiveness. | Yes. Analytics technologies remain blocked unless you enable this category. |
| Marketing | Used for advertising, remarketing, campaign measurement or social-media tracking if such services are used by TTS. | Yes. Marketing technologies remain blocked unless you enable this category. |
4. Necessary Storage Currently Used
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
tts_cookie_consent_v1 |
Browser local storage | Stores your cookie-consent choices, including whether Analytics and Marketing are enabled or disabled. | Treated by the TTS consent system as valid for up to 180 days, after which you may be asked to make your choices again. |
This storage is considered necessary because it allows the website to remember and respect your privacy choices.
5. Analytics Technologies
Analytics technologies are optional and are disabled by default. If TTS installs an analytics service, the relevant scripts will only be activated after you enable the Analytics category.
When an analytics provider is added to the live website, this policy will be updated to identify the provider, the relevant cookies or storage technologies, their purposes and their retention periods.
6. Marketing Technologies
Marketing technologies are also optional and are disabled by default. These may include advertising, remarketing or social-media tracking technologies if TTS chooses to use such services in the future.
If marketing technologies are introduced, this policy will be updated to identify the relevant provider, cookies or storage technologies, purposes and retention periods.
7. Your Cookie Choices
When you first visit the website, you are shown a consent banner with the following options:
- Accept All — enables necessary, analytics and marketing categories;
- Reject All — leaves only necessary technologies active; and
- Manage Preferences — allows you to choose Analytics and Marketing independently.
Necessary technologies remain active where they are required for the website to function and to remember your privacy choices.
8. Changing or Withdrawing Consent
You can change your preferences at any time by selecting Cookie Settings in the footer of any page on the TTS website.
If you disable a category that was previously enabled, the consent system will prevent that category from loading on future page views. Where possible, it will also attempt to remove relevant first-party cookies that can be accessed by JavaScript.
Some third-party or cross-domain cookies may not be removable directly by the TTS website. For this reason, the primary control is to prevent optional scripts from loading unless consent has been given.
9. Browser Controls
Most web browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies and other stored website data through the browser settings. You can use these controls in addition to the consent controls provided on the TTS website.
Blocking all browser storage may affect how some website features function, including the website's ability to remember your privacy choices.
10. Third-Party Services
The TTS website may use third-party service providers for functions such as website hosting, communications or form processing. These services may process technical information that is necessary to provide the requested service.
Optional third-party analytics or marketing technologies will not be intentionally activated through the TTS website before the appropriate consent has been obtained.
11. Contact Forms
Submitting a contact or quotation enquiry is a service you have specifically requested. The website may use a third-party form-processing service to deliver that enquiry to TTS.
Core contact-form functionality is not treated as Analytics or Marketing and remains available when optional technologies are rejected. More information about how enquiry information is handled is available in our Privacy Policy.
12. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when the website changes, when new technologies or service providers are introduced, or when legal and regulatory requirements change.
In particular, if TTS adds Google Analytics, advertising platforms or other optional tracking technologies, this policy will be updated with the exact cookies or storage technologies that are used.
