This Cookie Policy explains which cookies and similar technologies this website uses, why, and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
The short version
- We only use the cookies we need to run the site, unless you choose otherwise.
- Preference cookies and analytics are off until you switch them on.
- We do not use marketing or advertising cookies, and we do not sell your data.
- You can change your choices at any time using Cookie settings, also linked at the bottom of every page.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work in a similar way. They let a site remember information between pages or visits. In this policy, "cookies" includes these similar technologies.
Categories we use
Strictly necessary
Needed for the site to work and to remember your cookie choices. These cannot be switched off, and they do not track you. Under European and other privacy laws, they do not require consent.
Preferences
Remember choices you make, such as your language once we offer more than one. We do not set any preference cookies yet; if we add them, they will be used only if you allow them.
Analytics
Help us understand, in aggregate, which pages are useful. We use a privacy-friendly service that sets no cookies and builds no personal profiles, and even so it only runs if you allow it. Analytics is not currently switched on.
Marketing
We do not use marketing or advertising cookies. If that ever changes, we will update this policy and ask for your consent first.
Every cookie and technology we use
| Name | Purpose | Category | Provider | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
bhope_consent |
Remembers your cookie choices so we do not ask again on every page. | Strictly necessary | Bhope Business Group (this website) | First-party cookie (local storage if cookies are unavailable) | 12 months |
Plausible Analytics |
Counts page visits in aggregate so we can improve the site. Sets no cookies and stores no personal data on your device. Loaded only if you accept Analytics and analytics is switched on. | Analytics | Plausible Insights OU (EU-hosted) | Script, no cookies | Not stored on your device |
The Amana chat assistant does not use cookies. Conversations stay in your browser tab and disappear when you leave or reload the page. Our fonts and images are hosted on our own website, so loading a page does not share your visit with any font or image provider.
Managing your choices
When you first visit, we ask for your choice with equally clear options to accept all, reject all or choose by category. Your choice is stored for 12 months, after which we ask again. We also ask again if we change the cookies we use in a meaningful way.
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal of analytics and marketing cookies unless you switch them on yourself.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, we may not be able to remember your choices, so the cookie banner may appear again.
Changing your mind
You can withdraw consent at any time, as easily as you gave it, through Cookie settings. When you withdraw consent, we delete the related cookies we control and stop loading the related services.
Changes to this policy
We will update this policy whenever we add, remove or change a cookie. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last updated.
