INFORMATION ABOUT THE USE OF “COOKIES” ON WWW.THESOURCEBULKFOODS.CO.UK
Our website, just like almost any other site on the web, uses “cookies” to distinguish users from each other. This helps us to provide you with functionality, good browsing experience and it also allows us to improve our website. A “cookie” is a small file of letters and numbers that we (and our partners) store on your browser or on the memory of your device. Your agreement is required for receiving cookies, which are not essential for the running of our website, but are nevertheless, invaluable for us in improving it. Please accept our cookies if you value our products and services!
If you do not wish to receive any non-essential cookies, please indicate your desired option at the time when the pop-up appears when you first visit our website.
There are generally four types of cookies:
Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of our website. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our website, use a shopping cart or make use of e-billing services.
Analytical/performance cookies. They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website 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.
Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our website. This enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).

The UK Information Commissioner’s Office gives the following guidance under “How can I control my cookies“:
A number of websites provide detailed information on cookies, including AboutCookies.org and AllAboutCookies.org.
The European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance website Your Online Choices allows you to install opt-out cookies across different advertising networks.
Google has developed a browser add-on to allow users to opt-out of Google Analytics across all websites which use it. This is also available in the Chrome web store.
Some browsers include a feature known as ‘Do Not Track’ or DNT. This allows you to indicate a preference that websites should not track you. However, whilst DNT is available in many browsers, websites are not required to recognise its request, so it may not always work. You can get help on how to use DNT in Microsoft Edge, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari and Opera.
Internet Explorer has a feature called Tracking Protection Lists which allows you to import a list of websites you want to block.
