1. Introduction

When you visit lever-es.com, we — Lever Engineering Supplies Ltd — may place or access small data files called "cookies" (or similar tracking technologies, e.g. web storage, local storage, pixels) on your device. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, to enable certain features, and to analyze user activity. We respect your privacy and are committed to providing transparency about how and why cookies are used.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, what type of cookies we use, and how you can manage or withdraw consent.

2. Why we use cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for several purposes, including but not limited to:

  • Allowing essential functions so the site works properly (e.g. maintaining session state, load balancing, forms, login, etc.)

  • Remembering your preferences (e.g. language, user settings, form entries)

  • Gathering analytics about how visitors interact with our site (pages viewed, time spent, error logs) to help us improve performance, usability, and content

  • In case of third-party services (e.g. analytics tools, advertising, marketing integrations), to collect aggregated data for marketing or performance purposes

3. Cookie categories and consent

We categorise cookies broadly as follows (in line with guidance for UK / EU websites). 

Category Description / Purpose Consent Required?
Essential / Strictly necessary Cookies required for core site functionality (e.g. sessions, security, form handling) ❌ No (these are necessary for site operation) 
Functional (Preferences) Cookies that store user choices/preferences (e.g. form entries, settings) ✅ Yes 
Performance / Analytics Cookies that collect data about how you use the site (e.g. page views, load times) ✅ Yes
Marketing / Third-Party / Advertising Cookies set by external services / third parties (e.g. analytics platforms, ad networks) for tracking, marketing, remarketing, user profiling ✅ Yes 


On your first visit, you should be presented with a cookie banner/pop-up to accept or reject non-essential cookies (functional, analytics, marketing). You should also be able to change your preferences at any time. 

4. What cookies we use (example template)

Cookie name Provider / Domain Purpose Category Expiry / Duration
_site_pref lever-es.com Stores user preferences (e.g. language, layout) Functional 1 year

(Remove or adapt rows based on your actual cookies.)

5. Third-party cookies & external services

If you use any external third-party services (analytics, marketing, ad networks, social plugins, video embeds, etc.), those services may also set cookies. We commit to disclosing which third parties set cookies and why, in the table above — to the best of our knowledge.

When third parties are involved, their cookies are only used if you have explicitly given consent (unless they are strictly necessary).

6. User control and consent withdrawal

  • On first visit (or when cookie preferences change), we display a cookie banner that allows you to Accept all, Reject non-essential, or Select Preferences (granular control).

  • You can revisit your cookie preferences at any time via a “Cookie Settings” link in the site footer (or equivalent UI), to change or withdraw consent.

  • You can also configure your browser to block or remove cookies. However — note — blocking cookies may impact site functionality or your browsing experience.

7. Legal & compliance context

As a UK / EU-facing website, we comply with the rules under the UK GDPR (or EU GDPR, where relevant) and the corresponding electronic communications regulations (such as Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations — PECR / ePrivacy). These require us to: 

  • Provide clear and comprehensive information about cookies and similar technologies; 

  • Obtain user consent before setting non-essential cookies; 

  • Make consent freely given, specific, informed, unambiguous — and allow users to withdraw consent at any time. 

8. Updates to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time (e.g. when cookie usage changes or we add/remove services). We will update the “Last updated” date above accordingly.

We recommend you check this page periodically to stay informed.
