1. About this policy

This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies used on athomecatering.co.uk, which is run by At Home Catering Limited (company number 02763948). It covers this website only. Our Privacy Notice explains how we handle personal information more generally.

2. What these technologies are

A cookie is a small file a website asks your browser to keep. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage, which let a website keep information in your browser, and code from other companies that reads information from your device. This policy covers all of them, and we call them "cookies" for short.

3. Your choices

When you first visit, a banner asks for your choice. You can:

• Accept — allow statistics, and marketing and external content;
• Deny — refuse them;
• View preferences — choose Statistics and Marketing separately; nothing optional is switched on until you choose.

Accepting and denying are equally easy. Closing the banner with the X does not give consent. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time with the Manage consent button at the bottom of every page. When you withdraw consent, the website stops using the technology and removes the Google Analytics cookies and Mailchimp items it manages; it cannot delete cookies kept on Google's or Mailchimp's own websites. If we change this policy or the technologies we use, the banner may ask for your choice again.

If you deny, the website still works. Maps and other external content show a placeholder, which you can choose to load.

4. What this website uses

This is what we observed on 9 November 2026, on ten representative pages and the newsletter sign-up form, in each consent state at desktop size, with the main states repeated at smartphone size. We did not submit any form, so this is a dated snapshot of browsing, not a complete or permanent list.

Cloudflare Turnstile: a script from challenges.cloudflare.com on every page; on pages with a form, a security check that runs in your browser inside a Cloudflare frame	Cloudflare. Help tell people from automated programs when a form is used. The check examines technical characteristics of your browser and device. In our checks it set no cookie on our website; on a form page it kept one local-storage item (cf.turnstile.u) inside Cloudflare's frame	Script: not stored. Local-storage item: Cloudflare does not publish how long it is kept; it stays in your browser until it is cleared or replaced	Form security — see section 5
_ga, _ga_PCMLBL77ZF (cookies)	Google Analytics. Count visits and understand how the website is used	Up to 2 years, as Google sets them; some browsers shorten this	Statistics — only with your consent
Mailchimp connected-site technology: mcforms-127098114 items (a cookie and local storage); requests to chimpstatic.com, form-assets.mailchimp.com and eventcollector.mcf-prod.a.intuit.com	Mailchimp (Intuit). Support Mailchimp's website sign-up form service	Cookie: until you close the browser. Local storage: until cleared or consent is withdrawn	Marketing — only with your consent

Embedded brochure viewer	Heyzine. Show an online brochure. Heyzine may use cookies or similar technologies on its own domain	Set by Heyzine on its own domain	Marketing — only with your consent
mc-validate.js (a script; no cookie or stored item seen)	A Mailchimp file served from Amazon S3, a service of Amazon Web Services. Check the fields of the newsletter sign-up form. Amazon receives your IP address and normal connection information when your browser fetches the file	No cookie or stored item seen	Loads only when you open the newsletter sign-up form — see section 5

5. What we use without asking first

Some technologies work before you make a choice:

• Your consent choices — essential, so that we can remember and respect your choice.
• Cloudflare Turnstile — protects our enquiry, job-application, deli and testimonial forms from automated abuse. On pages with a form it runs a short security check in your browser and sends technical information, such as your IP address and browser details, to Cloudflare; it does not read what you type. Its script currently also loads on pages without a form, where in our checks it ran no security check and stored nothing. We are keeping this under review.
• The Mailchimp form-validation script (mc-validate.js) — it loads only when you open our newsletter sign-up form, whatever your cookie choice, to check the form's fields. The file is Mailchimp's but is served from Amazon S3, a service of Amazon Web Services, so Amazon receives your IP address and normal connection information. We did not see it set a cookie or store anything on your device.

We do not use Google Analytics, Google Maps, the Heyzine brochure viewer, or Mailchimp's connected-site technology, until you agree.

6. Google Analytics

With your consent, Google Analytics helps us understand visits and how people use our website. It records information such as the pages you view, how you arrived, scrolling, clicks on links and downloads, and when a form is sent. Google receives this information, including your IP address. Google Analytics runs only after you choose Statistics. The signals that would let Google use advertising storage or personalise advertising stay set to "denied", whatever you choose. Google's collection of contact details entered in forms ("user-provided data collection") and Google signals are switched off for our website.

7. Other companies and other countries

Google, Mailchimp (part of Intuit) and Cloudflare are based in the United States. The Mailchimp form-validation script is served from Amazon S3, a service of Amazon Web Services. The Heyzine brochure viewer loads from Heyzine's own website once you agree to marketing and external content. Our Privacy Notice explains transfers outside the UK.

8. Browser settings

You can also use your browser's settings to see, block or delete cookies and stored website data. If you delete our consent cookies, the banner will ask for your choice again.

9. Newsletter

Cookie choices and newsletter sign-up are separate. Accepting cookies does not sign you up to our newsletter. Our website's sign-up form asks only for permission to contact you by email.

10. Changes and contact

We update this policy when the technologies on our website change, and review it at least once a year.
