What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (such as your computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to website owners.

Cookies typically contain:

  • a unique identifier (often a string of numbers or letters);
  • the name of the website that placed the cookie; and
  • the duration for which the cookie will remain on your device.

When you return to the same website, or visit another website that recognises the same cookie, your device can be identified, and the website can respond in a way that is tailored to you. For example, cookies may remember pages you have visited, form inputs you have submitted, or preferences you have set for language or layout.

In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as pixels or local storage. While these do not always store information in the same way as cookies, they often serve a comparable purpose and, where appropriate, are treated similarly to cookies in this policy.

Types of Cookies We Use

Purpose of Collecting Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes, consistent with our focus on design excellence, reliability, and client-focused service:

1. Site functionality and reliability

Essential cookies support the technical functioning of the website so that you can navigate between sections such as Services, Projects, Solutions, and Insights without interruption. They help us provide secure connections, process form submissions, and maintain session integrity.

2. Remembering your preferences

Preference cookies allow us to store limited information about your choices, such as whether you have dismissed a particular banner, how you prefer certain content to be displayed, or the consent options you previously selected. This reduces the need for you to repeat the same selections on future visits.

3. Analytics and user experience enhancement

Analytical cookies provide us with aggregated statistics that help us understand how visitors interact with our content, for example which project highlights attract the most attention or how users progress to the Consultation and Contact Us pages. We use these insights to refine navigation, improve accessibility, streamline content, and ensure that the site performs effectively across different devices.

4. Communications and marketing

Where appropriate and permitted, we may use cookies in connection with our corporate communications, marketing activity, or press materials, for instance to measure responses to a particular campaign or to limit the number of times certain content is displayed. Any such use will be carried out in compliance with applicable privacy and electronic communications laws, and based on your consent where required.

Third-Party Cookies

In addition to cookies set directly by PIPS INTERIORS LTD (first-party cookies), our website may allow certain trusted third parties to set cookies when you visit. These third-party cookies may be used for purposes such as analytics, embedded content, or, where relevant, communications and marketing.

Examples of third-party activities may include:

  • web analytics services that help us understand how visitors interact with the site in aggregate;
  • embedded media or social sharing features that enable you to view or share content hosted on other platforms;
  • tools supporting performance, security, or availability of the site.

Where we integrate third-party services that use cookies, those providers are responsible for the cookies they set and their own processing of personal data. We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie information made available by those third parties for more detail on how they use your data and how you can exercise your rights. Links to such information may be provided within our consent interface where relevant.

If you choose to disable third-party cookies through our on-site tools or via your browser settings, some features provided by those third parties may no longer function as intended.

Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, legal or regulatory requirements, or the way in which our website operates. When we make material changes, we will take appropriate steps to inform you, which may include:

  • publishing a prominent notice on our website;
  • updating the version or "last updated" date of this policy; and/or
  • presenting an updated cookie consent banner or interface where required by applicable law.

We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies and similar technologies. Your continued use of the website after any changes have been implemented will signify that you acknowledge the updated policy.

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy or our use of cookies more generally, please contact us via the details provided on our Contact Us page.
