4. Your Choices

• Grant or Refuse Consent: On first visit you will see a banner with equal‑prominence buttons to “Accept all”, “Reject non‑essential”, or “Customise settings.” Non‑essential cookies are set only after an affirmative opt‑in.
• Withdraw Consent Anytime: You can change or withdraw consent at any time via the always‑available “Cookie Settings” link in the footer. Withdrawal is as easy as giving consent and does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
• Browser Settings: You can also configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Useful links: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge.

5. International Transfers

Some cookie providers (e.g., Google LLC, Meta Platforms Inc.) are located outside the UK/EU. Where cookie data is transferred to the United States or another third country, we rely on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (2021/914/EU) and the UK Addendum, together with supplementary measures where required.

6. Retention

We retain cookie‑derived data for no longer than is necessary for the stated purpose. Cookie lifespans are shown in the inventory and are enforced via our Consent Management Platform (CMP). Aggregated analytics data is stored for up to 25 months and then deleted or anonymised.

7. Do Not Sell or Share (California Residents)

If you are a California resident, you may opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information for cross‑context behavioural advertising at any time by clicking “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” in the footer.

8. Your Rights

Depending on where you reside, you may have the right to access, erase, restrict or port your personal data and to object to certain processing activities. Please see our Privacy Policy for full details or email admin@alexanderroseestates.co.uk.
