1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember certain information about your visit — such as your preferences or whether you have previously accepted the site's cookie notice.
Cookies are widely used by websites to help them function more smoothly and to provide information to the site's operators. Some cookies are strictly necessary for a website to work; others are optional and exist to improve your experience or to help us understand how visitors use the site.
Cookies do not grant access to your device or any information stored on it beyond what you have chosen to share with the website.
2. The Cookies We Use
We use four categories of cookies. The table below describes each category and its purpose.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on this site are placed by third-party services rather than by Brynell directly. These include:
- Google Analytics — provides aggregated traffic and usage statistics. Governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
- Google Maps — used to display our location on the contact section. Governed by Google's Terms of Service.
- Font providers — Google Fonts may log requests to serve typefaces. No personal data is retained beyond the request.
Brynell does not control third-party cookies. If you wish to opt out of third-party tracking, you may do so through those providers' own opt-out mechanisms or via your browser settings.
4. Cookie Duration

| Preference storage | Your cookie choices stored in localStorage | Until manually cleared |
