How We Use Cookies
We do not use cookies to store any personally identifiable information about you.
Cookies are small packets of information stored by your web browser when you visit certain websites, including our website. Cookies are generally used by websites to improve your user experience by enabling that website to ‘remember’ you, either strictly for the duration of your visit (using a “Session” cookie which is erased when you close your browser) or for repeat visits (using a “Permanent” cookie).
By using this website, you consent to us deploying cookies as described below. If you do not wish to accept cookies from our site or would like to stop permanent cookies being stored on your computer in the future, you can change the settings in your web browser to decline and / or delete cookies. See the “Help” section on your browser menu for guidance on how to do this. Note that changing cookie settings may affect certain features within this website.
We deploy cookies to help us to identify how users navigate to and around our website and to enable some of the features within the site that may be beneficial to you. This helps us deliver an effective online service to you. These are known as “First Party” cookies.
Google Analytics:
Remarketing (showing our ads on third party websites). Fence Forge and third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to inform, optimise and serve ads based on someone's past visits to our website. Google Display Network Impression Reporting. Fence Forge and third-party vendors use cookies to report how our ad impressions, other uses of ad services and interactions with these ad impressions and ad services are related to visits to our site. Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting. Fence Forge use data from Google's Interest-based advertising or 3rd-party audience data (such as age, gender and interests) with Google Analytics to inform our marketing strategy.
Visitors can opt out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customise Google Display Network ads using Google's Ad Settings page.
Visitors can opt out of Google Analytics using this browser add-on.
Google Tag Manager
This allows us to manage website tags via an interface. Tags are small elements of code that are used, for example, to measure traffic and visitor behaviour, to understand the effect of online advertising and social channels, to set up remarketing and orientation towards target groups, and to test and optimize websites. Google Tag Manager only implements tags. This means that no cookies are used and, as a result, no personal data is recorded. We list it here for transparency about the tools we use. If deactivation has been performed at a domain, page, event or 3rd party script level, this remains in place for all tracking tags if these are implemented with Google Tag Manager.

All subject access requests should be made in writing.
There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.
We will respond to your subject access request within one month of receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.
