Cookie Policy

Last updated: 2 June 2026

In short: this website is built to respect your privacy. It uses no tracking, analytics, advertising or social-media cookies — so there’s no cookie banner to click through.

1. Our position on cookies

handbuiltnotbought.com does not set tracking, analytics, advertising or social‑media cookies. Because we set no non‑essential cookies, no cookie consent banner is required under UK law (PECR / UK GDPR).

2. Strictly necessary cookies

We do not currently set cookies. If a strictly necessary cookie were ever needed purely to make the site function (for example, basic security), it would be exempt from consent under the law and used only for that purpose.

3. Server logs

Our web host keeps standard server logs (such as IP address, browser type and pages requested) for security and reliability, as described in our Privacy Policy. These are server records, not cookies.

4. If this ever changes

If in future we add analytics or other non‑essential cookies, we will update this policy and ask for your consent first, via a clear cookie banner, before any such cookies are set.

5. Controlling cookies

You can control or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. For general guidance, see aboutcookies.org.
