1. Essential cookies only
This website currently does not use analytics, advertising or marketing cookies. Because the storage described below is necessary for security or to remember a user-requested preference, the site does not ask you to accept non-essential tracking.
2. Cookies used by this website
| Name | Who receives it | Purpose | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|---|
scas_cookie_notice
|
South Coast Auto Solutions website only | Remembers that you have seen the essential-cookie notice so it does not need to appear on every visit. | 180 days |
__Host-scas_admin
|
South Coast Auto Solutions website only | Secure authentication session for the private administration area. It is set only after an authorised administrator signs in. It is HttpOnly, SameSite=Strict and Secure in production. | Up to 8 hours |
When the site is run locally for development, the private admin cookie is named
scas_admin
because HTTPS is not used on the local preview.
3. No analytics or advertising trackers
No Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, advertising network, finance-application tracker or similar behavioural tracking technology is loaded by this build.
4. External links
The site contains links to services such as GOV.UK, Google Maps/Reviews and Facebook. Those services are not embedded as trackers on page load. If you choose to follow an external link, the destination service will apply its own privacy and cookie practices.
5. If we add non-essential technology later
If we introduce technology that requires consent, it will remain disabled until an appropriate choice has been provided and this policy will be updated before that technology is enabled.
6. Controlling cookies
You can also use your browser settings to delete or block cookies. Blocking the private administration session cookie would prevent an authorised administrator from staying signed in, but it does not affect ordinary public browsing.
