Cookie policy
What we store on your device, why, and how to change it.
Last updated 23 August 2026
The short version
This site runs no advertising and no cross-site tracking. What we store falls into three groups: a small number of items strictly necessary to make the site work, an optional preference, and — if enabled for your session — a live chat widget and aggregate analytics.
Strictly necessary
These cannot be switched off, and no consent is required for them under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations because the site cannot deliver the service you asked for without them.
- Session and security
- Keeps a signed-in operations user authenticated and protects forms against cross-site request forgery. Expires when you close the browser, or after the session times out.
- Rate limiting
- Counts recent tracking lookups from your connection so the reference lookup cannot be brute-forced. Held in memory against your IP address, not written to your device.
Preferences
- fastwave:theme
- Stores your choice of the light or dark theme in local storage, so the site does not flash the wrong one on every navigation. Set only when you use the theme control; if you never touch it, we follow your operating system's setting and store nothing. It never leaves your device.
Analytics and live chat
Where a live chat provider is configured, it sets its own cookies to keep your conversation attached to you across pages, and it is the controller of that conversation under its own privacy policy. Where analytics are configured, they measure page views and referrers in aggregate; we do not use them to build a profile of you, and we do not join them to your shipment records.
Neither is essential. Declining them costs you the chat window and costs us some traffic figures; nothing else on the site changes.
