Cookie Policy
1.What are cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly and can provide information about how the site is used.
2.How we use cookies
powerandsteel.com currently uses only strictly necessary cookies required for the Site to function correctly (for example, cookies set by our WordPress hosting platform for security and basic site operation). These cookies do not track you for advertising purposes and do not require your consent under UK law.
We do not currently use analytics, advertising, or tracking cookies. If this changes in future, the rules depend on what we introduce:
- Some low-risk, first-party statistical cookies — used only to understand overall site usage, that do not identify you individually and are never combined with advertising — may not require your consent under current UK rules (PECR, as amended by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025).
- Most standard analytics tools (including a typical Google Analytics setup) and any advertising or marketing cookies still require your prior consent.
If we introduce any cookies that require consent, we will update this Cookie Policy and add a cookie banner so you can accept or decline before those cookies are set.
3.Types of cookies
| Type | Purpose | Consent required |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Site security, basic functionality | No |
| Statistical / low-risk analytics (not currently in use) | Aggregate, non-identifying usage statistics only | Not always — depends on configuration |
| Standard analytics (not currently in use) | Understanding individual visitor behaviour | Yes, if introduced |
| Marketing (not currently in use) | Advertising | Yes, if introduced |
4.Managing cookies
You can control or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the Site functions.
5.Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes. Please check back periodically.
