Please read the policy to understand the roles of essential, analytics and marketing cookies and the ways we monitor performance.

We place cookies for multiple purposes related to running a local gardening service and platform for the Aldgate gardener community.

Gardener Aldgate services use minimal essential cookies for operational needs. Below we outline cookie categories and how each is applied to support optimal user experience and performance monitoring.

Cookie categories

The main cookie types used by Gardening Aldgate and Gardener Aldgate listings are described here:

• Essential cookies: These are required to operate core features such as login sessions, security checks, and form submissions. Without these cookies, booking and basic navigation would not function reliably.
• Analytics cookies: Used to collect anonymous usage data so we can measure site traffic, pages visited, and user paths. These cookies help with performance monitoring and spotting technical issues that affect gardeners and customers.
• Marketing cookies: These cookies may be used to deliver relevant promotional content and to measure the effectiveness of campaigns related to gardening and Aldgate services. They do not collect personal identifiers for core functionality.

User control and choices

You have control over cookie settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies via browser settings or privacy controls. When you change these settings, some areas of the Gardener Aldgate experience may be affected; for example, you might need to re-enter preferences or re-authenticate. If you prefer not to be tracked by analytics cookies, you can disable them while retaining essential cookies for basic operation.

For practical control we recommend using browser privacy tools or device settings. If you clear all cookies, saved preferences such as language, accessibility settings and shopping or booking cart details will be removed. Performance monitoring cookies are especially helpful to identify slow pages, failed requests, and server errors so we can improve response times for the Aldgate gardener network. They gather aggregated metrics, not personal data, to maintain and enhance service quality.

Retention and scope: cookie lifespans vary from session-only to several months depending on function. Essential cookies are usually session-based while analytics and marketing cookies may persist longer to provide meaningful trend data. Gardening Aldgate and related services periodically review cookie usage to ensure minimal data collection and compliance with applicable privacy expectations. This policy outlines the types, purpose, and controls available so you, as a client or gardener in Aldgate, can make informed choices about cookie use.
