Google Analytics and advertising tags stay off until you accept. Reject is as easy as accept.
Last updated 9 September 2026
VAUXHALL LOCKSMITH LTD uses storage on your device only as set out here. The rules are PECR as amended by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 (in force 5 February 2026) and UK GDPR. Questions: contact@vauxhall-locksmiths.co.uk. Postal address: Vintage House, 37 Albert Embankment, London SE1 7TL.
Nothing in this banner is pre-ticked. We do not treat scrolling or using the site as consent.
Until you press a button on the cookie bar, we do not load Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, or advertising tags. We do not set _ga cookies. We do not create a Google dataLayer.
The only device storage after you choose is a local record of that choice (see the table). That record is strictly necessary so we can honour a reject as well as an accept.
From February 2026 PECR lets some first-party, aggregate statistics run on an opt-out basis if they cannot identify you and you have a free way to object. We do not use that exemption for Google Analytics. GA uses unique identifiers and Google as a third party, so it stays off until you accept.
Google Maps is not a statistics cookie. It is a map of the Vauxhall yard on the contact page, so you can find us. Google may set cookies inside that iframe. Opening the address in Google Maps in a new tab is also available. Analytics stay off until you accept.
| Name | Where | Purpose | When |
|---|---|---|---|
| cookie-consent, cookie-preferences, cookie-consent-version, cookie-consent-at | localStorage | Remember reject or accept | Only after you press a cookie button. Strictly necessary. |
| _ga, _ga_*, _gid | HTTP cookies from Google | Google Analytics 4 page counts | Only if you accept analytics and a measurement ID is configured. Never before that. |
| Google Maps cookies | Inside the Maps iframe | Show the yard map on /contact | When you open the contact page. Independent of analytics accept. |
We do not use marketing cookies. The marketing toggle in our code stays false.
Press Reject extra cookies on the bar, or Cookie settings for the same choice on this page. You can also block cookies in the browser. Blocking all storage may stop the consent record from saving, so the bar may return.
If you accepted analytics and later reject it, we remove Google scripts and expire Google Analytics cookies we can reach on this domain.
We will update this policy if we add or remove storage. Changing the meaning of a choice resets the banner (consent version 3 from 9 September 2026). The company remains VAUXHALL LOCKSMITH LTD, Vintage House, 37 Albert Embankment, London SE1 7TL.
