Last updated: 7 November 2026
- Introduction
Bidding Specialists Ltd (“Bidding Specialists”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to operate and secure our website and digital Platform, improve functionality, analyse usage and support marketing activities.
This Cookie Policy explains how these technologies are used and how you can manage your preferences.
It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
- What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function, remember preferences and collect information about how online services are used.
Similar technologies include tracking pixels, scripts, tags and browser storage.
Cookies may be set by Bidding Specialists or third-party providers and may expire at the end of a browser session or remain on your device for a specified period.
- Categories of Cookies
We use four categories of cookies and similar technologies:
3.1 Strictly Necessary
Essential for website and Platform operation, including secure authentication, account sessions, access permissions, security and recording cookie preferences.
These technologies do not require consent where an applicable legal exception applies.
3.2 Functional
Support additional features, such as live chat, interface preferences and communication tools.
Consent will be obtained where required. Certain preference-related technologies may qualify for a legal exception, subject to its conditions.
3.3 Analytics
Help us understand website traffic, Platform usage, performance and user interactions to improve our services.
Analytics technologies generally require consent unless their specific use meets a statutory exception for statistical purposes, including the applicable information, aggregation and objection requirements.
3.4 Marketing
Support advertising, campaign measurement, conversion tracking and relevant promotional communications.
Marketing cookies and tracking technologies requiring consent will not be activated before consent is obtained.

Depending on the services and features enabled, we may use the following providers:
| Provider | Purpose | Category |

Some providers may use technologies other than cookies or operate without storing information on your device.
Cookie durations depend on their purpose and configuration. Some expire when a session ends, while others remain for a defined period.
Details of the individual technologies in use, including their names, providers, purposes and expiry periods, will be available through our cookie management system.
- Cookie Consent and Preferences
Our website will provide a cookie consent management system allowing visitors to:
- Accept all optional cookies.
- Reject all optional cookies.
- Customise their preferences by category.
We will not activate technologies requiring consent until that consent has been provided. Technologies covered by a statutory exception may operate without consent where all relevant conditions are met.
Where an exception requires a simple and free means of objecting, that option will be provided.
Your choices will be recorded and applied in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
You may change your preferences or withdraw consent at any time through the Cookie Settings option on our website.
You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Withdrawing consent prevents further consent-based use but may not automatically remove previously stored cookies.
Disabling certain technologies may affect the functionality of some website or Platform features.
- Personal Information and International Processing
Some cookies and similar technologies may collect personal information, including IP addresses, online identifiers and usage information.
Where personal information is processed, we comply with applicable UK data protection requirements.
Certain third-party providers may process information outside the United Kingdom, subject to applicable international transfer safeguards.
