1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They enable websites to recognise your device, remember preferences, analyse usage patterns, and support security functions. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, local storage, and session storage. This policy refers to all such technologies collectively as cookies unless otherwise specified.

2. Who Sets Cookies

Cookies on lbeinc.guru may be set by LBE INC LTD (first-party cookies) or by third-party service providers whose tools are integrated into our website (third-party cookies). Third-party providers operate under their own privacy and cookie policies. We select providers with appropriate data protection standards but do not control their independent cookie practices beyond contractual requirements.

3. Categories of Cookies We Use

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for website operation, security, and basic functionality. They enable page navigation, form submission, load balancing, and fraud prevention. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent under PECR but are disclosed here for transparency. Disabling these cookies may prevent the website from functioning correctly.

3.2 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember choices you make such as language preferences, cookie consent selections, and previously entered form data to improve your experience on return visits to lbeinc.guru.

3.3 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies collect aggregated information about how visitors use our website, including pages visited, time spent, referral sources, and error encounters. This data helps LBE INC LTD improve website structure, content relevance, and user experience for prospective clients seeking personal care, laundry, and concierge services.

3.4 Marketing Cookies

Where deployed with consent, marketing cookies track browsing behaviour to deliver relevant advertising on third-party platforms and measure campaign effectiveness. LBE INC LTD limits marketing cookie use to proportionate activities aligned with our service offerings.

4. Specific Cookies Used

The following describes cookies commonly used on lbeinc.guru. Actual cookies may vary based on active integrations and are updated periodically.

4.1 First-Party Cookies

lbe_cookie_consent stores your cookie preference selections for twelve months. lbe_session maintains session state during form completion and navigation. lbe_csrf supports cross-site request forgery protection for form submissions.

4.2 Third-Party Analytics

Where analytics services are enabled with consent, cookies such as _ga and _gid may collect anonymised usage statistics. Retention periods are determined by the respective provider, typically ranging from twenty-four hours to twenty-four months.

4.3 Embedded Content

Embedded maps, videos, or social widgets may set cookies from their respective providers when you interact with embedded content on our contact or location pages.

5. Legal Basis for Cookie Use

Strictly necessary cookies are deployed based on legitimate interests in providing a functional and secure website. Non-essential cookies require your consent under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 as amended. Consent is obtained through our cookie banner or preference centre before non-essential cookies are activated. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior cookie placement.

6. Cookie Consent Management

When you first visit lbeinc.guru, a cookie consent banner presents options to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise preferences by category. Your selections are stored in the lbe_cookie_consent cookie and respected on subsequent visits. You may change preferences at any time by accessing the cookie settings link in our website footer or by clearing cookies through your browser and revisiting the site.

7. Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through settings menus. You can typically block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, delete existing cookies, or receive notifications before cookies are placed. Browser-specific guidance is available from browser developers. Note that blocking all cookies may impair website functionality and prevent access to certain features on lbeinc.guru.

8. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers transmit Do Not Track signals. There is no universally accepted standard for responding to DNT signals. LBE INC LTD currently does not alter cookie practices solely based on DNT signals but respects explicit cookie consent choices made through our preference mechanism.

9. Cookie Retention Periods

Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for defined periods ranging from twenty-four hours to twelve months depending on purpose. Consent records are retained for evidence of compliance. Analytics cookies follow provider default retention unless shortened through configuration. We review cookie retention schedules annually and adjust to reflect data minimisation principles.

10. Third-Party Cookie Policies

Third-party providers whose cookies may appear on lbeinc.guru maintain independent privacy and cookie policies. We encourage you to review policies of analytics providers, embedded content hosts, and advertising partners. LBE INC LTD selects providers with appropriate safeguards but is not responsible for independent third-party cookie practices beyond contractual oversight obligations.

11. International Data Transfers via Cookies

Some third-party cookie providers may process data outside the United Kingdom. Where this occurs, appropriate transfer safeguards are implemented as described in our Privacy Policy. Cookie-related data transfers are limited to what is necessary for the specified cookie purpose and subject to provider contractual commitments.
