Cookie policy
Which cookies and similar storage the Megahedge website uses, what they do, and how to control them.
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Similar tools, such as local storage, do the same job. This policy explains which ones the Megahedge website uses and why. It sits alongside our privacy policy.
The short version
- We use cookies to make booking work, keep the site secure and remember a few choices you make.
- We use analytics to count visits and understand which pages and steps help people, and those tools never receive your address, flat number, project name, name, mobile number, photos or report contents.
- We do not use advertising cookies and we do not sell data to advertisers.
Strictly necessary
These keep the site working and cannot be switched off. They hold your place in the booking flow, protect forms against abuse, keep report links working for the people you share them with, and remember your cookie choice. Without them, booking and payment would not work.
Preferences
These remember choices such as the city you picked, your report language and whether you closed a notice. They make the site easier to use but are not needed for it to work.
Analytics
Analytics tell us things like how many people start a booking, finish the Damp Check, open the sample report or use a calculator. We send only event names and coarse details: city, home size and buying stage. Addresses, flat numbers, project names, names, mobile numbers, photos and report contents never go to analytics tools. We set analytics cookies only if you allow them.
| Type | What it is for | Can you turn it off? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Booking, payment, security, report access, remembering your cookie choice | No, the site needs them |
| Preferences | City, language and dismissed notices | Yes |
| Analytics | Counting visits and steps, with coarse details only | Yes |
Payment and messaging providers
When you pay, the payment provider's page may set its own cookies to process the payment and prevent fraud. When you tap a WhatsApp button, you leave our site and WhatsApp's own policies apply. We do not control those cookies.
The Damp Check
The Damp Check may keep your answers in your browser's storage so you can finish later on the same phone. Photos you add stay on your device unless you choose to send them. Clearing your browser data removes them.
How to control cookies
- Change your analytics and preference choice at any time by clearing this site's cookies, which brings the choice back on your next visit.
- Use your browser's settings to block or delete cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will stop booking from working.
- Use private browsing if you do not want choices remembered between visits.
Cookies and your rights
Where a cookie or analytics tool processes personal data, the rights in our privacy policy apply, including access, correction, erasure and grievance redressal under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Withdrawing consent to analytics stops further collection from your browser.
How long they last
Session cookies end when you close the browser. Other cookies last for a set period, no longer than 12 months, after which we ask again where consent is needed.
Changes and questions
If we start using a new kind of cookie, we will update this page and the date above, and ask for your consent where it is needed. Questions go to privacy@megahedge.si.
