Cookie Policy
This cookie policy explains how S-Worx MEP uses cookies and similar technologies, what they are for, and how you can control them.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work in the same way. Some are needed for the website to work; others are optional and are only used if you allow them.
Your consent
Under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR, we only use optional cookies with your consent. Necessary cookies are used without consent because the website cannot work without them.
Nothing optional runs until you make a choice, and rejecting is as easy as accepting.
