Cookie Policy
Last updated: 24 September 2026
This Cookie Policy explains the limited use of browser storage on Home Cleaning Services, available at https://1236.neurogena.net. It is written for visitors in the United Kingdom. The site is an informational resource about household cleaning and does not provide accounts, comments or newsletters. The policy describes the technology that is currently implemented, the choices available to visitors, and how those choices can be revisited.
1. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small pieces of information that a website can ask a browser to store and send back on later visits. Similar technologies can store or read information within a browser or on a device without using a traditional cookie. Depending on the technology, this information may include a preference, a technical setting, an identifier, or the time at which a setting was updated.
On this site, the relevant technology is local browser storage. It is used only to remember a visitor’s cookie choice on that visitor’s device. Local browser storage is controlled through the browser and is separate from a website account; this site does not offer accounts. The storage record is not used to identify a visitor by name or to build a profile of their browsing activity.
2. Why this site uses browser storage
Home Cleaning Services uses one strictly necessary local browser storage record to operate its consent manager. Its purpose is to remember whether the visitor selected accepted, rejected, or necessary-only, together with the time the choice was updated. Remembering the choice helps the site respect the setting on later pages and avoids repeatedly presenting the same decision during ordinary use of the site.
The record is first-party: it is set and read in connection with this site rather than by an outside advertising, analytics, or social-media provider. It is not used for advertising, targeting, visitor measurement, behavioural analysis, or cross-site tracking.
3. Technology categories and current status
Cookie and similar technologies are often grouped into categories. The following description distinguishes the categories from the technologies actually active on this site.
- Strictly necessary technologies — active. The consent-choice record is necessary for the consent manager to remember and apply a visitor’s stated preference on the device.
- Functional technologies — not currently active. These would normally remember optional features or enhanced preferences. No such integration is currently active.
- Analytics and performance technologies — not currently active. These would normally measure site use, page performance, or audience behaviour. This site does not currently use them.
- Advertising and targeting technologies — not currently active. These would normally support advertising, marketing audiences, or personalised promotions. This site does not currently use them.
- Social-media technologies — not currently active. These could be set by embedded social-media features or sharing tools. No such integration is currently active.
If an optional category is introduced in the future, this policy and the consent manager should be reviewed before that technology is activated. Optional technologies should not be placed or read before the appropriate choice has been obtained where consent is required.
4. Current browser-storage record
The table below records the only browser-storage item supported by the current site implementation. It is included for clarity and does not indicate the use of any additional cookies, providers, or tracking tools.
| Item | Category | What it holds | Purpose | Party and duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ng-cookie-choice-v2 | Strictly necessary local browser storage | The selected state: accepted, rejected, or necessary-only, and the time the choice was updated | To remember and apply the visitor’s cookie choice on the device | First-party; retained in browser storage until the visitor clears that storage |
This record does not contain an account profile, comment history, newsletter preference, payment information, or an optional marketing preference. No external provider is listed because no third-party cookie or similar-technology provider is currently active under this policy.
5. First-party and third-party technologies
A first-party technology is set by, or for the direct operation of, the site a visitor is viewing. A third-party technology is set by another organisation or is used to make information available to another organisation. Third-party technologies can be relevant where a page includes external measurement tools, advertising tools, embedded media, social-media tools, or similar features.
The consent-choice record described above is first-party. No third-party cookies, third-party local browser-storage records, or third-party tracking integrations are currently active. Accordingly, the current implementation does not send the consent-choice record to a named outside provider. If the site’s technology changes, the relevant third party, purpose, category, and choice mechanism should be disclosed before or when the change takes effect, as applicable.
6. Session storage, persistent storage and retention
Some browser technologies are temporary. Session cookies, for example, are generally removed when the browsing session ends. Other technologies are persistent and remain after a browser is closed, either until a stated expiry point or until they are removed by the visitor.
The current consent-choice record is persistent local browser storage. It remains on the device until the visitor clears browser storage. No fixed expiry period is configured in the information available for this policy, so no expiry period is stated here. The stored update time allows the consent manager to record when the currently stored choice was made or changed. Clearing browser storage removes the record and may cause the site to request a choice again on a later visit.
7. Legal basis and UK rules
For visitors in the United Kingdom, cookie and similar-technology use is considered in light of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), the UK GDPR, and the Data Protection Act 2018. PECR generally requires consent before storing or accessing information on a person’s device, unless a limited exemption applies. The UK GDPR also requires personal data processing to be transparent and to have an appropriate lawful basis where personal data is processed.
The current record is treated as strictly necessary because it is used to remember and honour the visitor’s own consent-manager choice. The site relies on the applicable necessary-technology exemption for that limited purpose. The record holds a device-level choice and update time rather than information supplied through an account or a named identity.
No optional analytics, performance, functional, advertising, targeting, or social-media technologies are currently active. If any optional technology is added, the site should provide clear information and obtain consent before storing or accessing it where PECR requires consent. Rejecting optional technologies must be as straightforward as accepting them. This policy explains the present implementation and is not a statement that any particular visitor’s circumstances or every future technical change will have the same legal outcome.
8. Using Cookie settings and changing a choice
The consent manager records one of three states: accepted, rejected, or necessary-only. As no optional technology category is currently active, these settings do not activate analytics, advertising, targeting, social-media, or other optional integrations. They allow the manager to record and retain the visitor’s choice consistently.
A fixed Cookie settings button is available on the site. Select that button to reopen the consent manager, review the available choice, and change or withdraw the previous selection. A visitor may reject optional technologies as easily as accepting them. Changing the selection updates the value stored in ng-cookie-choice-v2 and records the new update time on that device.
Withdrawing or changing a choice does not retroactively remove information that may already have been processed before the change where processing was permitted at that time. At present, the only described record is the necessary consent-choice record itself, and no optional integrations are active.
9. Browser controls and practical effects
Visitors can also manage cookies and local browser storage through their browser settings. Depending on the browser, controls may allow a visitor to delete stored site data, block some or all storage, use private browsing, or clear data when the browser closes. The exact steps depend on the browser and device being used.
If browser storage is cleared or blocked, the site may be unable to remember the consent choice. The practical result may be that the consent manager appears again or that a preference needs to be selected again. Blocking or clearing storage does not create optional technologies on this site; it affects only the browser’s ability to retain the necessary choice record. Browser controls operate on the visitor’s device and may also affect other websites.
10. International transfers and related privacy information
The current consent-choice record is first-party local browser storage and no third-party technology provider is currently active under this policy. On the information available for this policy, no international transfer arises from that record. If a future feature involves a third party or a transfer of personal data outside the United Kingdom, the relevant privacy information should explain the transfer and the safeguards relied upon where applicable.
For broader information about how personal data may be handled outside the limited technology described here, please read the Privacy Policy. This Cookie Policy focuses on cookies and similar browser technologies and should be read alongside that policy where relevant.
11. Changes to this Cookie Policy
This policy may be updated when the consent manager changes, when browser-storage practices change, or when relevant legal requirements make an update appropriate. The “Last updated” date near the start of this page identifies the most recent revision. Visitors should review this page after material changes, particularly if new technology categories or third-party integrations are introduced.
