Cookie policy
How this website uses cookies and similar technologies, and how you can control them.
About this policy
This Cookie Policy explains how the Crown Hosting Data Centres Limited website (“CHDC”, “we”, “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small file that a website stores on your computer, phone or tablet when you visit it. Similar technologies, such as local storage and scripts that read information from your browser, work in a comparable way. In this policy we refer to all of these as “cookies”.
The use of cookies in the UK is covered by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (“PECR”), as amended by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025. PECR requires us to tell you which cookies we use and why. Cookies that are strictly necessary to provide the website, or to keep it secure, can be used without your consent. Other cookies, such as those used for advertising, need your consent first.
How we use cookies
Our website does not currently use any cookies for analytics, advertising or tracking, and we do not share information about your visit with advertising networks.
The only technologies we use are those needed to provide the website and keep it secure:
Form spam protection (strictly necessary)
Pages with a form (such as our contact form and newsletter sign-up) use Cloudflare Turnstile to check that the form is being completed by a person rather than an automated program. To do this, Turnstile reads signals from your browser and device, and may store information on your device, when the form loads. This information is used only for security and is not used to track you across other websites. You can read more in Cloudflare’s privacy policy.
Website hosting
Our website is hosted by Webflow. Webflow does not set cookies on your device when you browse our website, but it does process technical information, such as your IP address, in order to deliver pages to you and keep the website secure.
Fonts
Our website loads its fonts from Google Fonts. This does not set cookies, but your browser sends your IP address to Google so that the fonts can be delivered. You can read more in Google’s privacy policy.
Changes to the cookies we use
If we introduce analytics or any other non-essential cookies in future, we will update this policy with a full list of the cookies used, what they do and how long they last. Where the law requires it, we will ask for your consent before those cookies are set, and give you a simple way to change your choice at any time.
Links to other websites
Our website contains links to other websites, such as LinkedIn and YouTube. If you follow these links, those websites may set their own cookies, which are covered by their own cookie and privacy policies.
