This policy explains how CheckHPI (checkhpi.uk), operated by Hill Davenport Limited, uses cookies and similar technologies.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. They can be used to make a website work, remember your choices, or track your activity across websites. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work in a comparable way.
Our approach
We keep cookies to a minimum. We don’t use advertising cookies, and we don’t use cookies to track you across other websites. At the moment, we don’t use analytics cookies either.
If we introduce analytics or any other non-essential cookies in future, we will update this policy and ask for your consent before setting them.
Cookies we may use
| Type | What it does | Consent needed? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Make the website and checkout work securely, for example by keeping a payment session active or protecting against misuse. | No |
| Website administration | Set only when our own staff log in to manage the website. Visitors don’t receive these. | No |
| Payment provider | When you pay for a check, our payment provider may set cookies to process your payment securely and prevent fraud. | No, where strictly necessary |
Strictly necessary cookies are allowed without consent under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, because the service you’ve asked for can’t work without them.
Third-party websites
Our pages may link to other websites, such as GOV.UK. Those websites have their own cookie and privacy policies, which we don’t control.
Controlling cookies
You can block or delete cookies using your browser settings. Most browsers let you see which cookies are stored and remove them individually or all at once. If you block strictly necessary cookies, some parts of our website, such as checkout, may not work properly.
