Cookies are small text files a website saves in your browser. This page lists the ones forcebuilders.uk uses and how to switch them off.
Analytics cookies (only with your consent)
| Cookie | Set by | What it does | How long it stays |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Tells visits from different browsers apart, so we can count visitors | 2 years |
| _ga_HCKMXL86MB | Google Analytics | Keeps track of your current visit | 2 years |
Google Analytics shows us which pages are read, which services people look for and whether they found our phone number. It doesn’t give us your name, email or anything else that identifies you. Google’s own explanation is here: How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Our contact page shows a Google Map of our location. Google may set its own cookies when the map loads. Those are controlled by Google, not by us.
We don’t use advertising cookies and we don’t track you across other websites.
Your choice
Google Analytics cookies are only set if you click Accept on the cookie banner. If you click Reject, or ignore the banner, no analytics cookies are stored. Google may still receive a basic, cookieless signal that a page was viewed, without anything that identifies you or your browser.
We remember your choice in one cookie of our own:
| Cookie | Set by | What it does | How long it stays |
|---|---|---|---|
| fb_cookie_consent | forcebuilders.uk | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics cookies, so the banner doesn’t show on every page | 6 months |
You can change your mind at any time: open cookie settings. The same link is in the footer of every page.
We also use Ahrefs Web Analytics to count page views. It doesn’t use cookies and doesn’t store anything on your device.
How to turn cookies off
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings:
To stop Google Analytics on every site you visit, install the Google Analytics opt-out add-on. The website works normally without cookies.
