Cookie Policy

Last updated · July 2026Applies to nurseryinabox.com

Nursery in a Box uses cookies and similar technologies to make the website work, remember your cookie preferences, and — only where you consent — measure how the website is used with Google Analytics 4. Non-essential cookies are not placed on your device unless you choose to allow them. There are currently no marketing or advertising cookies in use. This sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers personal information more broadly.

The short version: essential cookies keep the site working and secure. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics 4) are used only if you allow them through the Cookie Preferences panel — and you can change your choice at any time. There are currently no advertising platforms in use on this website.

01What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website can place on your browser or device. They help a website recognise your device and remember information, such as choices you have made or how the website is being used.

Similar technologies may include local storage, session storage, pixels, scripts, tags or other tools that store information on your device or access information from it.

02How Nursery in a Box uses cookies

Nursery in a Box uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

  • to operate the website;
  • to remember your cookie choices;
  • to measure website performance and usage with Google Analytics 4, where you have given consent; and
  • to improve website content, page layout and navigation based on aggregated analytics (where consented).

Essential storage is used where it is needed for the website to work and to remember your cookie choices. Analytics cookies are used only if you give consent through the Cookie Preferences panel. Marketing cookies are not currently used.

03Cookie categories

Essential cookiesAlways on

Essential cookies and similar storage are required for the website to work properly and cannot be switched off through the Cookie Preferences panel. On this marketing website they are used to remember your cookie-consent choices (niab-consent-preferences in local storage).

Analytics cookiesWith consent

Analytics cookies help Nursery in a Box understand how visitors use the website, such as which pages are visited, how people move between pages and whether users encounter errors. These cookies are used only with your consent. The analytics provider is Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-5XTKMGPCT9). The GA4 script is not loaded until you accept analytics cookies.

Marketing cookiesWith consent

Marketing cookies may be used to measure advertising activity or understand whether a campaign is effective. These cookies are used only with your consent. There are currently no known advertising platforms or marketing cookies operating on this website. If that changes, this policy and the cookie table will be updated.

04Cookie table

The table below reflects the cookies and similar technologies identified on this website following technical review of the implemented site. A further live scan should be repeated after production launch if additional third-party services are added.

_ga_5XTKMGPCT9Google Analytics 4Stores session state for the GA4 propertyAnalyticsUp to 2 yearsFirst-party

Analytics cookies in this table are set only after you give analytics consent. Consent is required for analytics; essential storage does not require consent beyond what is needed to operate the site.

05Managing cookie preferences

When you first visit the website, you can accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can also reopen the Cookie Preferences panel at any time to change your choices or withdraw consent.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings as well. Browser controls may let you block or delete cookies, but doing this may affect how some parts of the website work.

06Third-party services

Some website features may be provided by third-party services. These services may place or access cookies and similar technologies only where appropriate and permitted, and where any required consent has been given.

Third-party services currently used on this marketing website:

  • Google Analytics 4 (Google LLC) — website analytics, loaded only with analytics consent (measurement ID G-5XTKMGPCT9).

There are currently no known advertising platforms or other significant third-party marketing services on this website. Nursery in a Box is responsible for explaining the third-party services it uses. Third-party providers may also be responsible for how they use information collected through their own services.

07How long cookies remain

Cookies and similar technologies can remain for different lengths of time.

  • Session cookies usually last only while your browser is open and are deleted after your browsing session ends.
  • Persistent cookies remain on your device for longer, unless they expire or you delete them sooner.

Retention periods for each cookie or technology are shown in the cookie table above.

08Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy if our use of cookies or similar technologies changes, or if legal requirements or regulatory guidance change. Any updated version will be posted on this page.
