Cookie Policy

Last updated: 15 October 2026

Wealden Computing Services Limited, trading as Wealden (“Wealden”, “we”, “our” or “us”), respects the privacy of visitors to www.wealden.net (the “Site”). This Cookie Policy (the “Policy”) explains how we use cookies and similar technologies on the Site and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more generally.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or device when you visit a website and are used to store or track information about your use of the site. Similar technologies, such as pixels and local storage, work in a similar way, and in this Policy we refer to all of them as “cookies”.

Cookies can be session‑based or persistent. Session‑based cookies exist only during your web session and expire when you close your internet browser. Persistent cookies stay on your device until you delete them manually or your browser deletes them at the end of the duration set for that cookie.

How we use cookies

We only use cookies that are strictly necessary for the Site to work securely. We do not need your consent to use these cookies, which is why the Site does not show a cookie banner.

We do not use analytics, advertising or targeting cookies, and we do not allow third parties to place advertising cookies through the Site. We do not use cookies to identify you personally or to build a profile of you.

Google reCAPTCHA

Our Contact us, Request a demo, Connect with sales and sign-in forms are protected by Google reCAPTCHA, which helps us check that a form is being completed by a person rather than an automated program. To do this, reCAPTCHA collects information about your device and how you interact with the form, including your IP address, and sends it to Google, where it may be processed outside the United Kingdom. Google’s use of this information is governed by the Google Privacy Policy (policies.google.com/privacy) and Terms of Service (policies.google.com/terms).

Links to other websites

The Site contains links to other websites, such as our LinkedIn page and our location on Google Maps. If you follow these links, the other website may set its own cookies, which are governed by that website’s own cookie and privacy policies, not this one.

Do Not Track

Some browsers send do not track (“DNT”) signals. Because the Site does not use tracking, analytics or advertising cookies, there is nothing for these signals to switch off.

IP Addresses

An IP address is a unique identifier that certain electronic devices use to identify and communicate with each other on the Internet. When you visit our Site, our web servers record the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet. We use this information to deliver the Site to you and to keep it secure.

Your Choices

You can stop cookies being downloaded to your computer by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. Most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to be notified when you receive a new cookie, and how to disable existing cookies.  You can find out how to do this for your particular browser by clicking “help” on your browser’s menu or by visiting www.allaboutcookies.org. If you block strictly necessary cookies, some parts of the Site, such as our contact forms, may not work properly.

Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time, for example if we change the cookies we use. The date at the top of this Policy shows when it was last updated.

How you can contact us

If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us at support@wealden.net or write to Wealden Computing Services Limited, Nova North, 11 Bressenden Place, London SW1E 5BY. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at www.ico.org.uk.
