This policy explains how Basswin uses cookies and similar technologies on addersecurity.co.uk. We want you to understand what information these small files collect, why we use them, and how you can control them.
What cookies do on this site
A cookie is a small text file stored on your device when you visit a website. Cookies help us recognise your browser across visits, remember your preferences, and understand how you use our pages. They do not give us access to your device or any personal files.
We use cookies to keep the site working smoothly, to analyse which sections are most useful, and to show you relevant information. Some cookies are essential for the site to function; others help us improve what we offer.
The cookies we set
Our site uses three categories of cookies, and each serves a different purpose.
| Category | Purpose | Requires consent |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Enable core functions like navigation and secure access | No |
| Analytics | Show us which pages are visited and how long readers stay | Yes |
| Marketing | Help us understand which content brings visitors to the site | Yes |
Necessary cookies keep the site usable. They manage your session, remember your language choice, and ensure secure browsing. We set these automatically because the site cannot function without them.
Analytics cookies tell us which articles are read most often and where visitors spend their time. This information is aggregated and anonymous—we see patterns, not individuals. You can decline these without breaking any part of the site.
Marketing cookies track how you arrived at our pages. They help us understand whether a link from a search result or a social post brought you here, so we know what content works. These are also optional.
Third-party scripts and cookies
Some features on our site load content from external services. Analytics platforms, advertising networks, and embedded video players may set their own cookies when you visit a page that uses them. We do not control these third-party cookies directly.
If you disable cookies in your browser, third-party scripts may still load, but they will not be able to store or read information on your device. Check the privacy policies of these services—Google Analytics, for example—if you want to know what they collect and how they use it.
Managing cookies in your browser
Every modern browser lets you block or delete cookies. The exact steps vary, but the principle is the same across all of them.
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies
You can block all cookies, allow only those from sites you visit directly, or delete cookies when you close the browser. Blocking necessary cookies will stop some parts of the site from working—you may not be able to log in or save preferences.
Your consent and what happens if you decline
When you first visit addersecurity.co.uk, a banner asks whether you accept analytics and marketing cookies. Necessary cookies are set regardless of your choice because they are required for the site to operate.
If you decline optional cookies, the site continues to work normally. You will still see all articles, tables, and contact details. The only difference is that we will not collect anonymous usage data or track how you arrived at the site. You can change your mind at any time by clearing your cookies and revisiting the page, or by adjusting your browser settings.
Changes to this policy
We review this cookie policy periodically and update it when our use of cookies changes. Any updates will appear on this page with a revised date below. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
Contact us
If you have questions about how we use cookies, or if you need help adjusting your browser settings, write to us at [email protected]. We aim to respond within 48 hours.
