Cookies and website storage

This website helps customers find listed trades and companies near them. We do not endorse, recommend, vet, rate or validate any listed business. Customers must conduct their own due diligence before appointing or paying a business.

Sessions and essential functions

Account sign-in, sessions and security features may use cookies or similar storage so the website can recognise the current session and protect forms. Disabling necessary cookies may prevent account features from working.

Other providers and linked websites

Payment providers, embedded content and linked business websites may have their own cookie practices. Review their information when you choose to use them. Your browser settings can be used to inspect, delete or restrict cookies.

Optional nearby business search

If you choose Use my location, your browser asks permission to obtain your location. Coordinates are rounded to two decimal places before the website receives them. The approximate location is stored in the optional lto_nearby cookie for one hour and used to order nearby listings. It is not included in anonymous page-view email notifications or sent to an external location lookup service. You can use Clear location to remove it, or enter a town or postcode without granting location access. Session storage remembers when you clear this preference in the current tab.

IP location and your preference

Approximate IP location is looked up locally on our hosting without a location cookie or external geolocation API. Choosing Clear location removes the optional location cookie and sets lto_location_off=1 for one hour to turn off automatic IP-based personalisation. This cookie contains only your preference, not your IP address or coordinates. You can still search by town or postcode.
