Cookie Policy
We use cookies thoughtfully. This page explains what each one does and how you can adjust your settings.
Last updated: 7 March 2025
When you visit our website, small data files called cookies may be placed on your device. Some are necessary for the site to work at all; others help us understand how people use the site so we can improve it; others support our marketing.
This Cookie Policy explains each category, what is placed, and how you can manage your choices. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function. Without them, certain features — such as form submission or navigation — may not work correctly. They cannot be disabled.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| lh_consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences (via localStorage) | Persistent |
| PHPSESSID | Session management for form handling and page state | Session |
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages attract attention, where people leave, and how they arrive. The information is aggregated and does not identify individuals.
| Name | Provider | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics — distinguishes users | 2 years |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics — session state | 2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics — distinguishes users | 24 hours |
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies support advertising and conversion tracking. They allow us to understand whether enquiries that reached us originated from a paid channel, so we can assess where our outreach is most useful.
| Name | Provider | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _fbp | Meta (Facebook) Pixel — conversion tracking | 3 months |
| _fbc | Meta (Facebook) — click attribution | 2 years |
| _uetsid | Microsoft Bing — UET tracking session | 24 hours |
Preference Cookies
These cookies remember choices you make on the site — such as language or display settings — so that your experience is consistent across visits. Currently, Lintel House does not use preference cookies beyond those listed under Essential.
No preference cookies are in use at this time. This category will be updated if any are introduced.
How your consent is stored
When you first visit our website, a consent notice invites you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice is saved in your browser's localStorage — a small storage area in your browser, separate from cookies themselves — under the key lh_consent.
This means your preference persists across visits on the same browser and device without requiring a server-side record. If you clear your browser data or use a different device, you will be asked again.
Tracking scripts for analytics and marketing are only loaded after your consent has been confirmed. If you decline, those scripts are not placed during your visit.
Withdrawing or changing your consent
You can adjust your consent at any time using the toggles above on this page, or through your browser settings.
Using the toggles above
Switch any category off to withdraw consent. Your updated preference will be saved to localStorage immediately. Cookies already placed in your browser by third-party providers can be removed by clearing your browser data.
Clearing browser data
In most browsers, you can clear cookies and site data via Settings → Privacy & Security → Clear browsing data. This will also clear the localStorage consent record, and you will be asked for your preferences again on your next visit.
Browser-level opt-out
Most browsers allow you to block all cookies by default. Please be aware that doing so may affect the functionality of our website and other sites you visit.
Third-party opt-outs
You can also opt out of Google Analytics via Google's opt-out browser add-on, and manage your Meta ad preferences through your Facebook account settings.
Reset all cookie preferences
This will clear your stored consent and reload the consent notice on the homepage.
