Last updated 2026. This page applies to Foodwise Wholesale Ltd and to the website at foodwisewholesale.co.uk.
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website. This page explains which cookies foodwisewholesale.co.uk uses and how to control them.
1. What this site uses
This website is deliberately light on tracking. In its published form it uses:
| Type | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Keeping you signed in to your trade account for the duration of your visit, and remembering that you have dismissed a notice. | Session, or until you sign out |
| Preferences | Remembering choices you make on the site, such as a selected range filter. | Up to 12 months |
| Analytics | Only if enabled — anonymous measurement of how the site is used, so we can improve it. | Up to 24 months |
Sign-in state is held in your browser's session storage rather than a persistent cookie, and is cleared when you close the tab or sign out.
2. Third-party content
Web fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which may record the request in its server logs. If you would prefer the site not to contact a third-party font service, the fonts can be self-hosted — ask us and we will arrange it.
3. Controlling cookies
You can delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent the trade account area from working. Guidance for each major browser is available from its publisher, and general guidance is published by the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
4. Changes
If we add analytics or marketing technology to this site, this page will be updated and a consent banner will be presented before any non-essential cookie is set.
