Introduction

Our website, https://ukearcare.co.uk ("the website"), uses cookies and other related technologies (for convenience all technologies are referred to as "cookies"). Cookies are also placed by third parties we have engaged. In the document below we inform you about the use of cookies on our website.

This policy was updated for the launch of our new website, which uses far fewer cookies than the previous site.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small, simple file that is sent along with pages of this website and stored by your browser on the hard drive of your computer or another device. The information stored there may be returned to our servers or to the servers of the relevant third parties during a subsequent visit.

Types of cookies we use

Technical or functional cookies ensure that certain parts of the website work properly and that your preferences remain known. We may place these without your consent.

Statistics cookies give us insight into how visitors use our website so we can optimise the experience. We ask your permission before placing statistics cookies.

Advertising and marketing cookies allow us to measure the results of our advertising campaigns. Because these are tracking cookies, we ask your permission before placing them.

Cookies placed on this website

✓ Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and Google Ads — statistics and advertising cookies used to understand site usage and measure advertising. These only load if you consent via our cookie banner, and you can withdraw consent at any time.
✓ ManagePatients booking widget — our online booking system may set functional cookies needed for the booking process to work when you use the booking pages.
✓ Google Maps embeds — pages showing an embedded clinic map may set cookies from Google when the map loads.

You can also disable cookies via your browser, but please note that our website may no longer work properly if all cookies are disabled.
