Cookie policy
In plain English: we use a small amount of storage to make this site work and to remember the choices you make. Anything that is not strictly necessary waits until you say yes, and you can change your mind at any time from Cookie settings at the bottom of every page.

What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. Similar technologies, such as local storage and session storage, do the same job in a different way. This policy covers all of them, and we call them "cookies" for short.
The categories we use
- Strictly necessary: needed for the site to work, such as remembering your cookie choice. These are always on.
- Functional: remember settings you choose, such as the colour theme, between visits.
- Analytics and enquiry insights: Salesforce cookies that record the pages you view and, if you contact us, link them to your enquiry, so our team knows what you looked at.
We do not use marketing cookies. Only strictly necessary cookies are used before you make a choice.
Every cookie we set
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| gg_consent | Gateway Global (this website) | Remembers your cookie choices, so we do not ask again on every page. | Until you change your choice or clear your browser storage | Strictly necessary |
| gg_theme (for this session) | Gateway Global (this website) | Keeps the colour theme you chose while you move between pages. | Until you close the browser tab | Strictly necessary (setting you chose) |
| gg_theme (across visits) | Gateway Global (this website) | Remembers the colour theme you chose for your next visit. | Until you change your choice or clear your browser storage | Functional |
| _sfid_ followed by a short code | Salesforce (Marketing Cloud and Data Cloud) | Gives your browser a random ID so we can see which of our pages were viewed and, if you send us an enquiry, link those visits to it. Only set if you allow Analytics and enquiry insights. | Up to 2 years, or until you switch it off in Cookie settings | Analytics and enquiry insights |
| [TO CONFIRM: cookies set by the embedded enquiry forms and by our hosting provider, from a cookie audit] | ||||
Your choices
When you first visit, you can choose Accept all, Reject all or Manage choices. Rejecting is as easy as accepting, and nothing is pre-selected. You can change your choices at any time from the Cookie settings link at the bottom of every page, or by clearing your browser storage.
We ask again after 12 months if you allowed analytics, after 6 months if you did not, and whenever we change what we ask for. If you switch analytics off, we tell Salesforce you have opted out and remove its cookie from your browser.
We do not use Google Analytics or Google advertising tags. If we ever do, they will load only after you consent, using Google Consent Mode.
