Overview
Leadslane is a website brand operated by Shop & Smile Corner Shop. This Cookie Policy applies to leadslane.com and should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
These support enquiry processing, security and remembering a cookie choice.
Leadslane does not currently use browser cookies for personalised advertising, remarketing or cross-site profiling.
What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text records stored by a website in your browser. They may be used to maintain a session, remember a preference or support security and website functions.
Similar technologies may include local storage, session storage, pixels, tags, software-development kits and other methods that store information on or access information from a device.
Server and security logs do not normally place information in your browser, but they are also described in this policy because they form part of the website’s technical operation.
How Leadslane currently uses technologies
Enquiry session
A short-lived session may be created when the project form is submitted. It supports rate limiting and the secure display of the enquiry reference on the confirmation page.
Cookie preference
A first-party preference record may remember whether you accepted or rejected optional technologies so that the banner does not ask for the same choice on every page.
Website security
Technical request information may be recorded in server logs to investigate errors, prevent misuse and keep the website available.
No current ad tracking
The current website configuration does not intentionally set advertising, remarketing or behavioural-profile cookies.

A session cookie is normally created only when a function requiring a server session is used. The exact cookie name may vary if the server configuration is changed.
Strictly necessary technologies
Strictly necessary technologies are used only where they are required to provide a function requested by the visitor or to protect and operate the website.
- processing and validating a project enquiry;
- maintaining a temporary form-submission session;
- preventing rapid duplicate submissions and basic automated abuse;
- displaying an enquiry receipt after successful registration;
- remembering a cookie or privacy choice;
- maintaining website and network security.
These technologies are not used to create advertising profiles or to follow visitors across unrelated websites.
Optional analytics and advertising technologies
Leadslane does not currently activate optional browser cookies for analytics, personalised advertising, remarketing, social-media profiling or cross-site tracking.
If an optional technology is introduced, it will be assessed under the rules in force at that time. Where consent is required, the technology will not be activated before a valid choice is made. Where another statutory exception applies, the website will provide the information and controls required for that use.
Your cookie choices
Strictly necessary technologies cannot be disabled through the website where they are required for a requested feature or website security.
If optional technologies are offered, the website should provide a clear way to accept or reject them and, where appropriate, choose individual categories. Rejecting optional technologies must not prevent access to the ordinary website content.
You may reset a saved preference by deleting cookies and local storage for leadslane.com in your browser. The website may then ask you to make a new choice.
Browser controls
Most browsers allow you to inspect, delete or block cookies and clear local storage. These controls are usually available in the browser’s privacy, security or site-data settings.
Blocking all cookies may affect form submission, security checks, saved preferences or the enquiry confirmation page.
Third-party websites and services
Leadslane may link to external websites. After you follow an external link, the third party may use its own cookies and similar technologies under its own policies and controls.
Leadslane does not control storage or tracking performed on an independent third-party website.
Applicable cookie rules
The use of cookies and similar storage or access technologies in the United Kingdom is governed principally by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, as amended, together with applicable UK data protection law where personal information is processed.
Technologies that do not fall within an applicable exception require the choice or consent required by law before they are used. Information about personal data associated with these technologies is also provided in the Privacy Policy.
Changes to this Cookie Policy
This policy may be updated if the website, form process, hosting, security tools, analytics configuration or legal requirements change. The revision date at the top of the page identifies the current version.
Where a material change affects optional technologies or visitor choices, the website may request a new preference.
