Remembering items placed in a shopping basket
Maintaining secure sessions
Remembering website preferences
Understanding how visitors use a website
Helping identify technical problems

Supporting advertising or marketing activities where applicable

Some cookies operate only during a browsing session, while others may remain on your device for a longer period.

In addition to traditional cookies, websites may use other technologies that store information on, or access information from, your device.

These may include technologies such as:

Local storage
Pixels
Tags
Scripts
Software development technologies
Similar browser or device storage mechanisms

Where applicable, references to “cookies” in this policy also include similar storage and access technologies where they perform comparable functions.

Strictly necessary cookies and similar technologies support functions that are essential to providing the website or a service specifically requested by the visitor.

These may be used for purposes such as:

Keeping the website secure
Detecting or preventing fraud
Identifying technical problems
Maintaining a shopping basket
Supporting checkout functions
Authenticating users where applicable
Remembering privacy or cookie choices
Enabling essential website communications

Where applicable law permits these technologies to operate without consent because they are necessary for the requested service or otherwise fall within a legal exception, they may be enabled automatically.

Because these technologies support essential functions, disabling them through browser settings may prevent some parts of JMLPets.co.uk from working correctly.

6. Analytics and Statistical Cookies

We may use analytics technologies to understand how visitors interact with JMLPets.co.uk and to help us improve the website.

Depending on the technology and how it is configured, information collected may relate to matters such as:

Website performance
Loading speeds
Error information
How visitors arrived at our website
General interaction with website features

Where analytics technologies are used solely to produce statistical information for the purpose of improving our website, and all applicable legal requirements for an exception are satisfied, they may be used without prior consent.

Where this type of exception applies, visitors will be provided with information about the use of the technology and a simple and free means of objecting.

If analytics technology goes beyond the scope of an applicable exception—for example, by tracking, profiling, or identifying individual visitors—appropriate consent will be obtained where required before that technology is used.

Examples may include:

Language preferences
Display preferences

Certain technologies used solely for permitted appearance or functionality purposes may be used under an applicable legal exception where all required conditions are satisfied.

Where such an exception applies, we will provide appropriate information and a simple and free means for visitors to object.

Where the use falls outside an applicable exception, consent will be requested where required.

8. Marketing and Advertising Cookies

JMLPets.co.uk may use marketing or advertising technologies if such services are introduced or enabled on our website.

These technologies may be used for purposes such as:

Measuring advertising performance
Understanding interactions with advertising campaigns
Limiting how often advertisements are displayed

Providing personalised advertising
Tracking interactions across websites or services

Where consent is legally required for advertising or marketing technologies, these technologies will not be activated before you have provided the necessary consent.

You may also withdraw previously provided consent through the cookie preference controls available on the website, where applicable.

9. Social Media Technologies

Our website may contain links, buttons, embedded content, or other functionality associated with social media services.

Some social media features may use cookies, pixels, or other tracking technologies.

Where a social media technology tracks visitors or uses information for advertising, profiling, or other purposes requiring consent, it will be subject to the appropriate consent requirements.

Third-party social media providers may also process information in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.

10. First-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are technologies placed or controlled directly through JMLPets.co.uk.

They may be used to support functions such as:

Website security
Shopping basket operation
Website preferences
Customer sessions
Cookie preference management
Website performance

The specific purpose will depend on the individual technology involved.

A third party may place or access information on your device when its service is integrated into our website.

Where consent is required for a particular third-party technology, the technology will only be activated after the necessary consent has been obtained.

Where appropriate, information about the relevant third-party providers and their purposes will be made available through our cookie preference system or other cookie information presented on JMLPets.co.uk.

Third-party providers may also maintain their own privacy and cookie policies.

12. Session and Persistent Cookies

Cookies can also be classified according to how long they remain on your device.

Session Cookies

Session cookies generally operate for the duration of your visit and are deleted or become inactive when your browser session ends.

They may be used for functions such as navigation, security, or maintaining a shopping session.

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until they are removed.

They may be used for purposes such as:

Remembering preferences
Remembering cookie choices
Recognising returning visitors
Supporting permitted analytics
Supporting marketing where consent has been obtained

The duration of a persistent cookie depends on its purpose and configuration.

13. Cookie Consent

Where applicable law requires us to obtain consent before using a cookie or similar technology, we will request that consent before activating the relevant technology.

We will not treat simply visiting, scrolling through, or continuing to use JMLPets.co.uk as consent to technologies that legally require consent.

Where a consent mechanism is used, you may be provided with choices such as:

Accepting applicable optional cookies
Rejecting applicable optional cookies
Selecting individual categories
Reviewing additional cookie information
Changing previously selected preferences

Your choices should be respected by the website's cookie management system.

14. Withdrawing Consent

Where processing depends on your consent, you can change your mind and withdraw that consent.

Where available, you can do this through the Cookie Settings, Cookie Preferences, or similar control displayed on JMLPets.co.uk.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

After withdrawal, technologies that depend on your consent should no longer be used for the relevant purpose.

15. Objecting to Certain Exempt Technologies

Current UK rules may allow certain limited statistical or appearance/functionality technologies to operate without prior consent when specific conditions are satisfied.

Where JML Pets relies on one of these exceptions, we will provide visitors with an appropriate way to object free of charge.

If you object, the relevant storage or access should stop in accordance with applicable requirements.

These exceptions will not be used to avoid consent requirements for advertising, cross-site tracking, profiling, or other activities that fall outside their permitted scope.

Most modern browsers allow you to review or manage cookies through their settings.

Depending on your browser, you may be able to:

View stored cookies

Configure privacy settings

Browser controls are separate from any cookie preference system available directly on JMLPets.co.uk.

Blocking all cookies may affect essential website functions, including shopping basket, checkout, account, or preference features.
