Kensington Skip Hire Cookie Policy
Kensington Skip Hire (also referred to as Kensington skip hire or Kensington skips) uses cookies and similar technologies to ensure a smooth experience, to measure site performance, and to deliver relevant content. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, the types we use, how we use them for performance monitoring, and how you can control your cookie preferences.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a site. They help our Kensington skip-hire service remember settings, recognise returning visitors, and gather aggregated information. Some cookies are essential for basic functionality, while others support analytics and marketing objectives.
Below is a quick outline of the cookie types we use for Kensington waste services and related skip-hire offerings:
Cookie types:
- Essential cookies – required to enable core functions like navigation, account access, and secure sessions for skip booking interfaces.
- Analytics cookies – used to collect anonymous data about how visitors interact with the Kensington Skip Hire pages to support performance monitoring and site improvement.
- Marketing cookies – used to deliver relevant promotional content across channels and to measure campaign effectiveness for Kensington skip-hire promotions.
How analytics and performance monitoring work
Analytics cookies allow us to understand visitor behaviour, page load times, and error rates. This aggregated information is essential for performance monitoring, helping the Kensington skip-hire team identify bottlenecks, optimise loading speed, and evaluate how features like skip sizing calculators perform under real-world use.
Performance monitoring data is aggregated and anonymised where possible. We do not use analytics cookies to personally identify you. These cookies help improve service reliability and the overall online experience for customers of Kensington skips and skip-hire services.
Marketing and third-party cookies
Marketing cookies may be set by third parties we work with to display advertising and to measure the effectiveness of campaigns. These cookies can track visits across multiple sites to build a profile of interests. If you opt out, advertising will not be tailored to your interests, however you will still see general ads for waste management or skip solutions.
User control and consent: You can manage cookie preferences at any time. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies via settings. You can also decline non-essential cookies through our cookie banner or preference centre. Disabling certain cookies may limit functionality — for example, saved booking details, personalised offers, or smooth payment flows may be affected for Kensington skip hire services.
Retention and third-party details: Different cookies have different lifespans. Session cookies expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain for a specified period. Some analytics or advertising cookies are set by external providers; these parties may have their own policies and retention periods. We recommend reviewing any third-party policies where available.
Managing cookies step-by-step: Use your browser settings to block or remove cookies, install privacy extensions, or set do-not-track preferences. You can also clear site data for pages related to Kensington waste collection and skip-hire platforms to reset stored preferences.
Policy updates: We may update this cookie statement to reflect changes in technology or services. Continued use of Kensington Skip Hire pages after updates implies acceptance of any revised terms. For clarity, this policy covers cookies used specifically for skip-hire and waste service interactions and does not provide guidance on other unrelated services.
Summary
Kensington Skip Hire uses essential, analytics, and marketing cookies to provide a secure, efficient service, to perform performance monitoring, and to deliver relevant content. You are in control: change browser settings, adjust cookie choices via our banner, or clear stored data at any time.
