FRONTLINE SAFETY (UK) LIMITED COOKIE POLICY

Information About Our Use of Cookies

Last updated: July 2026 | Version 2.0

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies and similar technologies we use on our website, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data more generally.

This policy is designed to comply with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR), each as amended by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, remember your preferences, understand how sites are used, and support advertising. Some cookies are set by us (first party cookies) and some are set by third party services that appear on our pages (third party cookies). We also use similar technologies, such as pixels and local storage, and this policy covers those too.

How Consent Works on Our Site

We use a Consent Management Platform (CMP) provided by Usercentrics to ask for, record and store your cookie preferences. Essential technologies are always active because the site cannot function without them. All other categories are off by default and are only activated if you opt in.

Our CMP integrates with Google Tag Manager (GTM) and supports Google Consent Mode v2, which ensures that Google services on our site respect your choices and do not set cookies for measurement or advertising unless you have consented.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the footer of every page. The consent panel also shows the current, definitive list of technologies used on our site, including the cookies each one sets and their storage durations.

1. Essential

These technologies are required for the core functionality of our site and are always active.

2. Functional

These technologies enable enhanced functionality and help us measure and improve how the site performs. If you do not opt in, some features may not work fully.

3. Marketing

These technologies are used to deliver relevant advertising, measure the effectiveness of our marketing, understand how our site is used, and support our sales activity. They are only set if you opt in.

How Long Do Cookies Last?

Cookies last for different lengths of time depending on their purpose. Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period, ranging from a few minutes to up to 2 years for some services, or until you delete them. The exact name, provider and storage duration of every cookie used on our site is listed in the Cookie Settings panel, which is kept up to date automatically.

Your consent preferences themselves are stored so that we do not have to ask you on every visit. We will ask you to renew your consent periodically, or sooner if we make significant changes to the technologies we use.

Managing Your Preferences

You can update or withdraw your cookie preferences at any time using the Cookie Settings link found in the footer of every page. You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you refuse some or all cookies, or alert you when a website tries to set one. If you block essential cookies, parts of our site, such as the basket and checkout, may not work.

Changes to This Policy

We keep this policy under review and will update it when the cookies or services we use change. Any changes will be posted on this page.

INFORMATION ABOUT OUR USE OF COOKIES

Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our site and our provision of goods and services to you.

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer if you agree. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer's hard drive.

The cookies we use are "analytical" cookies. They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around the site when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily. You can find more information about the individual cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them in the table below:

Google Analytics


Identifying Unique Visitors 
Each unique browser that visits a page on our site is provided with a unique ID via the _utma cookie.  Thus, if a person interacted with our website using both Firefox and Internet  Explorer, the Analytics reports in most cases will track this activity under two unique visitors.
 
Similarly if the same browser were used by two different visitors, but with a separate computer account for each, the activity would be recorded under two unique visitor IDs. 

On the other hand, if the browser happens to be used by two different people sharing the same computer account, in most of the cases one unique ID is recorded, even though two unique individuals accessed the site.

Google Analytics


Determining Visitor Session
The Google Analytics tracking for ga.js uses two cookies to establish a session. 

If either of these two cookies are absent, further activity by the user initiates the start of a new session.

See the Session article in the Google Analytics Help Center for a detailed definition and a list of scenarios that end a session

Tracking Traffic Sources & Navigation 
When visitors reach our site via a search engine result, a direct link, or an ad that links to your page, Google Analytics stores the type of referral information in a cookie.

The parameters in the cookie value string are parsed and sent in the GIF Request (in the utmcc variable). The expiration date for the cookie is set as 6 months into the future. 

This cookie gets updated with each subsequent page view to our site; thus it is used to determine visitor navigation within our site

Custom Variables
Google Analytics uses this cookie to track and report on custom variables. 
In a typical use case, this method may be used to segment our website visitors by a custom demographic that they select on our website (income, age range, product preferences).
