Cookies are small pieces of data that websites send to a user’s computer or device while they are browsing. These data files are stored on your device’s browser and are used by most websites to function effectively, enhance user experience, and provide valuable information to website owners.
Types of Cookies Used
Our website, Warwickshire Auction Services, uses various types of cookies for different purposes:

-
Functionality Cookies: These allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For instance, a functionality cookie can be used to remember your login information for future visits.

Targeting/Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver ads that are more relevant to you and your interests. They limit the number of times you see an ad and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
