Website Cookies – How we use cookies

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer’s hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse data about web page traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system.

Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

IONOS

When someone visits www.domibfb.co.uk we use a third party service, IONOS, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow IONOS to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website.

Third Parties

Occasionally it will be necessary for us to share your contact information with a relevant sub-contractor in order to carry out the work you have requested or to contact you for marketing purposes. This data sharing enables them to supply additional quotes for services, in addition to services we do not undertake such as scaffolding, deliver supplies to site and or carry out subcontracted works as instructed. These will only ever be trusted companies that we work with on a regular basis and your information will be covered under their Privacy Statement and erased from their system at the completion of any work carried out.
