Cookie Policy
This policy explains how this website, operated by Greyveil Ltd (company no. 17228832, 128 City Road, London EC1V 2NX), uses cookies and similar technologies, and how you can control them. It should be read with our Privacy Notice.

1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work in a comparable way. In this policy, "cookies" covers both.
2. Our approach
- We use as few cookies as possible.
- You can reject optional cookies at any time, in our cookie banner or through "Cookie settings". Rejecting them is as easy as accepting them, and the website works fully either way.
- We do not use cookies to find out who you are (except as described under "Enhanced conversions" below), and we do not sell any data collected through them.
3. The cookies we use
Strictly necessary (always on)
These are needed for the website to work and to remember your privacy choice. They do not require consent.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| gv_consent | Greyveil (this website) | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies. Stored in your browser's local storage. | Until you clear it |
Analytics (optional)
Help us understand how visitors use the website, so we can improve it.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors | 2 years |
| _ga_<container-id> | Google Analytics | Keeps the state of a visit | 2 years |
Advertising measurement (optional)
Tell us which of our Google advertisements lead to enquiries, so we spend our advertising budget well. We do not use them to show you advertising on other websites.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _gcl_au | Google Ads | Links a visit to an advertisement click (conversion linker) | 90 days |
| _gcl_aw | Google Ads | Stores the advertisement click identifier | 90 days |
Enhanced conversions. Only if you accept these cookies, when you send an enquiry your email address and phone number are converted in your browser into a scrambled code (SHA-256 hash) that Google cannot read, and only that code is sent to Google to confirm that the enquiry came from one of our advertisements. If you reject optional cookies, nothing is sent.
4. Google Tag Manager and Consent Mode
We use Google Tag Manager to load the tools above. It does not set cookies itself. We use Google Consent Mode: until you accept optional cookies, and if you reject them, Google tags run without cookies (Consent Mode v2, advanced mode) and send only limited signals (for example, that a page was viewed) that do not identify you. These help us count visits in aggregate.
5. Hosting
This website is hosted by Netlify, Inc. Netlify processes technical data, such as your IP address, to deliver the pages securely. It does not set marketing cookies on this website.
6. How to change your choice
- Use the buttons at the top of this page, or "Cookie settings" at the bottom of our main page.
- You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary storage may mean we ask for your choice again.
