Last updated: 24 July 2026
1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how UK1TECH (the trading name of Giotech Limited) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website, and the choices you have. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
We use cookies in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies — such as pixels, tags, and browser storage — work in a comparable way. They allow a website to recognise your device, remember your preferences, and gather information about how the site is used.
Some cookies are essential for the website to function. Others are optional and are only used with your consent — for example, to measure how the site performs or to support our marketing.
3. The Categories of Cookies We Use
We group cookies into the following categories:
- Necessary — required for the website and your consent choices to work. These are always active and do not require consent.
- Performance — help us understand how visitors use the site (for example which pages are viewed) so we can improve it.
- Functional — remember choices you make to provide enhanced, more personal features.
- Advertising — used to measure the effectiveness of our advertising and to support relevant marketing.
4. The Cookies and Tools on This Site
The table below lists the main cookies and third-party tools we use. Third-party providers may set their own cookies; please refer to their own privacy and cookie notices for full details. Exact cookie names and durations can vary as providers update their services.
| Category | Cookie / Tool | Purpose | Requires your consent? |
|---|---|---|---|

5. Your Consent and How to Manage It
When you first visit our website, you are shown a cookie banner where you can accept all cookies, allow a selection by category, or deny all non-essential cookies. Non-essential cookies (Performance, Functional, and Advertising) are only set after you have given consent.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the cookie banner. If you deny or withdraw consent, non-essential cookies and the tools listed above will not run. Necessary cookies cannot be switched off, as the site cannot function without them.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings, including deleting existing cookies or blocking new ones. Please note that blocking necessary cookies may affect how the website works.
