Our Cookie Policy & Your Privacy Choices

At Kerr’s of Edinburgh, we believe in transparency and trust, including how we handle your data.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can control your preferences when using our website. It’s part of our wider commitment to data protection and is designed to align with current UK legislation, including the UK GDPR, the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), and guidance from the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

We use a free tool called the Complianz Cookie Plugin to display our cookie banner and collect your preferences. This plugin is regularly updated to reflect changing regulations and gives you full control over whether and how cookies are used during your visit.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences over time, such as what pages you visit or whether you’ve filled in a form before.

Some cookies are essential (e.g. those that enable page navigation or security features), while others help us understand how visitors use the site so we can continue improving it.

What types of cookies do we use?

Our website uses three main types of cookies:

• Essential cookies – Required for the site to function (e.g. form submissions, session management).
• Performance cookies – Help us anonymously track visits, using tools such as Google Analytics.
• Preference cookies – Allow us to remember your settings, such as language or cookie preferences.

You can choose to accept or reject each type when prompted by our cookie banner.

You’re in control. When you first visit our site, you’ll be asked to accept or manage your cookie preferences. You can change these at any time by clicking the small floating icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen.

Please note that disabling some types of cookies may affect how the site functions. For example, you may not be able to submit forms or see embedded content from third-party platforms.

For more on how we collect and store personal information, please see our Privacy Policy.

We keep this Cookie Policy under regular review. This Cookie Policy was last updated on 5 June 2025.
