The following sections describe essential, analytics and marketing cookies in plain language so you can make an informed decision about your cookie preferences.
This policy applies to all interactions with West Ham skip hire online materials and digital touchpoints managed by the operations team.

Types of cookies we use
- Essential cookies: These are required for basic site functions and cannot be switched off. They enable safe navigation, access to secure areas, and proper form submission when ordering a skip.
- Analytics cookies: Used to understand how visitors interact with our pages. These cookies help with performance monitoring, page load tracking, and usage patterns so we can improve the skip hire experience.
- Marketing cookies: Employed to present relevant information and measure the effectiveness of promotional content. They help tailor messaging about skip size options and delivery availability.
Our use of analytics cookies focuses on performance monitoring. By collecting aggregated, non-identifying information about page views, load times and navigation flows, we can detect issues that slow down access to booking tools and remediate them. Performance monitoring cookies do not store your name or personal contact details; they store technical identifiers to measure trends and improve the reliability of skip hire services.
How analytics support better skip hire services
Analytics tools measure how long pages take to load, which pages are visited most often, and where drop-offs occur. This data guides optimisations such as reducing load times for mobile users and improving the clarity of booking forms used by Westham skip hire customers. By understanding visitor behaviour, we can make incremental improvements that benefit all users.
Data processed by analytics cookies is typically aggregated and anonymised. It may include anonymised device identifiers, anonymised IP fragments, and timestamps tied to user sessions. These metrics are used solely for monitoring performance and enhancing the overall quality of the skip hire platform.
Users have control over cookie settings. You can manage cookie preferences in your browser settings to block or delete cookies, or use available cookie preference tools where presented. Important: disabling essential cookies may limit functionality and prevent completion of certain tasks, such as booking a skip. For analytics and marketing cookies, you can opt out without affecting core service operations.
User control and choices
To exercise control, change settings in your browser or device, clear stored cookies, or use any privacy interfaces displayed when you first visited. If you choose to block analytics cookies, performance monitoring will be reduced and the service teams will have less data to improve speed and reliability. Blocking marketing cookies will stop personalised promotions but will not affect transactional capabilities.
Retention and third-party cookies
Cookies may be persistent or session-based. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period; session cookies expire when the session ends. Third-party cookies, such as those used for analytics and advertising, are set by external providers; they operate under their own policies. We do not store sensitive personal information in cookies, and we take steps to limit data collection to what is necessary for performance monitoring and legitimate business purposes.Final notes: This cookie policy for West Ham Skip-Hire is designed to be clear and practical. It clarifies cookie types, the role of analytics in performance monitoring, and how users can manage cookie preferences to suit their privacy needs while using skip hire services.
