Cookie Policy
Last updated: 5 November 2026. Operational details that still require verification are identified below.
1. About this policy
Walling Accountants Limited operates wallingaccountants.co.uk. This policy covers cookies and similar storage/access technologies used by the website. It is based on the pages and scripts reviewed on 5 November 2026; it is not a complete technical cookie scan.
2. What cookies do
Cookies are small files stored on your device. Other technologies can also store or access information. Some are needed to deliver a service you request; others support optional content, analytics or advertising. The rules can apply even where stored information is not personal data.
3. Technologies observed
The current site uses WordPress and Elementor. Google Analytics measurement ID G-5J4W31DHSE and a Trustindex review integration were identified in the reviewed-page scripts. GDPR Cookie Compliance is present. The older Privacy Policy refers to Squarespace; those references require separate review and are not evidence that Squarespace is the current host or analytics provider. Presence of a script or integration does not establish every cookie it sets. Actual storage can depend on page visits, interaction, login status, browser settings and consent.
4. Consent requirements
Storage/access requires valid consent unless an applicable legal exception covers its use. Consent must be an informed, affirmative choice and capable of withdrawal. A privacy notice, continued browsing or a banner’s mere presence does not establish consent or effective blocking.
5. Current controls
Use the site’s existing cookie preferences controls, where available, to review or withdraw optional choices. The business must verify that those controls govern each optional integration. Browser controls supplement website consent requirements. The complete behaviour before a choice, after rejection, after acceptance and after withdrawal still requires verification. Publishing this policy does not change those controls.
6. Cookie names and lifetimes
The table below lists identified technologies, not a verified list of every stored item. Exact cookie names, domains, categories, lifetimes and any other device storage remain unverified unless specifically stated. These details should be updated following a clean-session audit across the relevant pages and consent choices.
7. Browser controls
Your browser allows you to inspect, block or delete stored cookies. Deleting preference storage can cause the website to ask again. Blocking all cookies may affect requested features. Browser controls alone do not demonstrate that the site complies with consent requirements.
8. Third-party information
Third-party providers may receive technical information when their resources load. Review relevant providers’ privacy information for their own services. A list of technology names is not confirmation of contractual safeguards, processing location or lawful consent configuration.
9. Contact and review
Questions about cookies can be sent to Walling Accountants Limited, Unit1B,Hallidays Farm,Bilsborrow,Preston,PR3 0RU; telephone 01772 925 230; email ian@wallingaccountants.co.uk, or our contact page. Read our Privacy Policy for information about personal data and your rights. The business should review this inventory when website technologies change.
