Cookie Policy

Last updated: 14 June 2026

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies ShipSmith Group uses on the shipsmithgroup.com website, why we use them, and how you can manage your choices.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help sites function, remember preferences and understand how the site is used. We also use similar technologies, such as browser local storage, for the same purposes.

2. How we use cookies

We use three categories of cookie. Strictly-necessary cookies are required for the website to work - for example, remembering your cookie choice - and are always on. Functional cookies remember preferences to improve your experience. Analytics cookies help us understand aggregate usage so we can improve the site, and are used only with your consent.

We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies, and we do not build advertising profiles.

3. Cookies and storage we use

A strictly-necessary consent record (stored in your browser) remembers your cookie preference so we do not ask again, and persists until you clear it. Analytics measurement runs only if you consent, and provides aggregate, privacy-respecting usage data. The public website does not require you to sign in and sets no advertising cookies.

4. Managing your choices

When you first visit, we ask for your consent to non-essential cookies. You can change your choice at any time by clearing cookies and local storage in your browser settings, or through any cookie-preference control we provide. Blocking strictly-necessary items may affect how the website works.

5. Third-party cookies

Where we use third-party providers - for example, analytics - those providers may set their own cookies subject to their policies. We enable such providers only in line with your consent.

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time and will revise the “Last updated” date above.
