Cookies Policy.
A proportionate, privacy-conscious approach to cookies and similar technologies.
Last updated: 8 October 2026
The public Site is not intended to use advertising pixels, remarketing tags or cross-site behavioural tracking.
Use of Cookies
This website (the “Site”) uses cookies and similar technologies only where appropriate to support its operation, security and functionality and, if introduced in future, to understand how the Site is used.
Cookies are small data files stored on or accessed from a visitor’s device. Similar technologies may perform comparable functions. Some cookies are necessary for the Site to operate correctly, while others may support preferences, functionality, analytics or third-party services.
Bratton Richards seeks to use cookies and similar technologies in a proportionate and privacy-conscious manner. Further information concerning the processing of personal information is available in our Privacy Policy.
Current Site Configuration
The Site is intentionally designed to operate with a limited technology footprint. The public Restricted Access notice is presented on each visit and is not currently bypassed through a non-essential tracking cookie. Public enquiry forms use ordinary server-side processing and anti-abuse measures rather than advertising or profiling technologies.
Advertising
No third-party behavioural advertising pixels are intended to be deployed on the public Site.
Remarketing
No public remarketing or cross-site audience-building tags are intended to be used.
Analytics
Privacy-preserving analytics may be enabled after launch for aggregate traffic and performance measurement.
Restricted access
Future authenticated environments may require strictly necessary session, security or authentication technologies.
Strictly Necessary Technologies
Certain cookies and similar technologies may be required for the technical operation, security and integrity of the Site. They may be used, for example, to provide essential website functionality, maintain security, prevent abuse, support forms, administer authenticated users or provide restricted-access functionality.
Because these technologies are necessary for the Site to function or provide a service requested by the visitor, they may operate independently of optional cookie preferences where permitted by law.
Functional Technologies
Where used, functional cookies or browser-storage technologies may assist the Site in remembering choices or settings and providing enhanced functionality. The current public Restricted Access page is presented on each visit and does not rely on a non-essential marketing or behavioural cookie to bypass the notice. If optional preference functionality is introduced in future, the relevant disclosure and controls will be updated accordingly.
Analytics
Bratton Richards may use privacy-preserving, cookie-free web analytics to understand aggregate website usage and technical performance. The current analytics configuration is not intended to use advertising identifiers, behavioural marketing profiles or cross-site tracking. Where any future analytics technology would require consent or additional notice under applicable law, the relevant controls and disclosures will be introduced before use.
Third-Party Technologies
The Site is operated using third-party hosting, domain-name, content-delivery and security infrastructure. Those providers may process technical information and, in limited circumstances, may place or access strictly necessary cookies or similar technologies required to deliver, protect or administer the Site.
Other third-party services introduced to the Site from time to time may use their own cookies or similar technologies. Where appropriate, information concerning such technologies will be reflected in this Policy or in the relevant privacy controls before they are enabled.
Cookie Preferences & Browser Controls
Where non-essential technologies are used and applicable law requires a choice, visitors will be provided with an appropriate means of managing those preferences. Bratton Richards does not treat access to or continued use of the Site, by itself, as consent to non-essential cookies where applicable law requires a separate choice.
Browser settings may also allow cookies and other stored website data to be restricted, blocked or deleted. The method for doing so varies according to the browser and device used. Restricting strictly necessary technologies may affect the operation or availability of some website functionality.
Browser Controls
Most browsers permit users to inspect, block or delete cookies and site data. Blocking necessary storage or authentication technologies may prevent certain Site functions or future restricted-access environments from operating correctly.
Changes to this Cookies Policy
Bratton Richards may amend this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the Site, its use of technology, applicable law or its privacy practices. The current version will be published on this Site.
