This policy explains how SiteReport uses cookies and similar technologies on our website in accordance with the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how the site is used.

3. Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. They enable core features such as security, authentication, and session management. You cannot opt out of essential cookies as the service cannot function without them. Under PECR, these are exempt from consent requirements.
4. Analytics Cookies
We use optional analytics cookies to understand how visitors use SiteReport. This helps us improve the user experience. We only place analytics cookies with your consent, given via our cookie banner. You may withdraw consent at any time by clicking "Cookie Settings" in the footer.
Analytics data is aggregated and anonymised — we cannot identify individual users from this data.
5. Your Choices
When you first visit SiteReport, you will see a cookie banner where you can accept or decline optional analytics cookies. You can change your preferences at any time.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Note that blocking essential cookies will prevent you from logging in to SiteReport. Common browser guides:
6. Third-Party Cookies
The Google Places API (used for address autocomplete) may set cookies from Google's domain. These are governed by Google's Privacy Policy. We only call the Places API when you actively type in an address field — no data is sent on page load.
7. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology or law. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent revision.
