Updated 6 September 2026

Introduction

Our website, https://taxbordr.com (hereinafter: "the website"), uses cookies and related technologies (collectively referred to as "cookies"). Cookies are small data files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and inform owners.

Cookies may also be placed by third parties we have engaged to provide certain services and features on our website. This document informs you about the cookies on our website, including the types of cookies we use, their purposes, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file sent with a website's pages and stored by your web browser on your computer's or another device's hard drive. The information stored in cookies may be returned to the website's servers or the servers of relevant third parties during subsequent visits.

Cookies are used for various purposes, such as enabling essential website functionality, analysing visitor behaviour, and delivering targeted advertising. Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies), while others remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually (persistent cookies).

What are scripts?

A script is a code that makes our website function properly and interactively. Scripts can be executed either on our web server or on your device.

Scripts are used for various purposes, such as enabling interactive features on a website, collecting analytics data, and delivering dynamic content. Some scripts are essential for a website's proper functioning, while others enhance the user experience or gather insights about visitor behaviour.

What is a web beacon?

A web beacon (a pixel tag or transparent GIF) is a small, invisible graphic image placed on a website or in an email. It monitors user behaviour online, such as whether they have accessed a page or clicked a specific link.

Web beacons use cookies to collect data about user interactions with a website. They are commonly used for analytics, advertising, and email tracking purposes. When a user visits a page containing a web beacon, the user's browser requests to download the image, allowing the website owner to record the visit and gather other data based on the user's cookies.

Cookies

Technical or functional cookies

Technical or functional cookies are essential for the proper functioning of our website. They enable core features and services you have specifically requested, such as logging in, filling in forms, and securely processing payments. We may place these cookies without your consent, as they are strictly necessary for the operation of our website. Turning off these cookies may cause parts of our website not to work correctly.

Examples of technical or functional cookies used on our website include:

User authentication and access control cookies

Shopping cart and checkout functionality cookies

Load balancing and website performance cookies

Localisation and language preference cookies

Statistics cookies

Statistics cookies (analytics cookies) help us understand how visitors interact with our website by using interaction data and cookie or session identifiers, which can constitute pseudonymous personal data. We use this information to analyse and improve our website's performance and user experience.

The following optional measurement services may serve measurement cookies when you allow the relevant optional category:

Google Analytics 4: tracks and reports website traffic and user behaviour data when analytics is accepted. Advertising storage and personalisation signals stay denied unless marketing is also accepted. The main cookies used are _ga and _ga_* identifiers.

Microsoft Clarity: measures consented visitor interactions, including heat-map and session playback signals, so we can improve page usability. The main cookies used are _clck and _clsk.

We ask for your consent before placing optional analytics cookies. The banner lets you allow analytics separately from advertising conversion measurement.

Marketing/tracking cookies

Marketing and tracking cookies create user profiles, deliver targeted advertising, and track user behaviour across multiple websites. These cookies gather information about browsing habits to make advertising more relevant to users' interests.

The following optional advertising services may serve marketing and tracking cookies when you allow marketing cookies:

Google Ads conversion linker: links ad interactions to conversions. The main cookie used is _gcl_au.

Meta Pixel: measures advertising conversions after consent. The main cookie used is _fbp.

Analytics and marketing cookies stay off unless you allow the relevant category in the cookie settings panel. You can allow analytics without allowing marketing, and you can change either choice anytime using the cookie settings panel on our website or the opt-out mechanisms provided by each third-party service.

Our website links to social media profiles through ordinary outbound links. We do not embed LinkedIn Share buttons, Facebook Like buttons, or similar social widgets on the site. If you open a social media link, that platform's privacy policy applies.

Booking page exception. The booking calendar on our booking page runs on our own infrastructure, not a third-party embed. It is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, which may run a check to confirm you are a real visitor.

When you pay, you are taken to Stripe's secure checkout, where Stripe sets its own cookies under Stripe's own privacy and cookie policies. Please note that turning off certain cookies may impact your experience on our website and limit access to some features and services.

You can manage your consent settings for these categories:

Necessary (always active): These cookies keep site security, booking, payment, and consent records working and cannot be disabled in the site banner.

Analytics: These optional cookies measure website usage through Microsoft Clarity and Google Analytics 4. Advertising storage and personalisation signals stay off unless you also accept Marketing.
