Cookie Policy
This page explains which cookies this website uses, why, and how you can manage your preferences.
Last updated: 1 January 2025
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They serve a range of purposes — from ensuring a website functions correctly to helping us understand how visitors navigate our pages. This policy explains how we use them and what choices you have.
3. Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function. They do not require your consent, as they cannot be switched off without affecting your ability to use the site. These cookies do not collect information about you that could be used for marketing purposes.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
ayothayaxad_cookie_consent |
Records your cookie consent preference so you are not asked again on each visit | 12 months | |
PHPSESSID |
Standard PHP session identifier used to maintain page state during your visit | Session |
These cookies are set by our own web server and are not shared with third parties.
4. Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use this website — which pages are visited, how long visitors spend on the site, and where they arrive from. This information helps us improve the quality and usefulness of our content. Analytics cookies are only placed if you have consented.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga |
Google Analytics — distinguishes unique visitors using a randomly assigned identifier | 2 years | |
_ga_* |
Google Analytics — stores and counts page views for a specific measurement ID | 2 years | |

Google Analytics data is processed and stored by Google on our behalf. We have configured our analytics implementation to anonymise IP addresses before any data is sent to Google. Google's use of data collected through our website is governed by their own privacy and data processing terms.
If you decline analytics cookies, we will not load Google Analytics on your device during your visit.
5. Managing Your Preferences
When you first visit this website, a notice will appear explaining our cookie use and inviting you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You may change your mind at any time by:
- Adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies (see your browser's help documentation for instructions)
- Clearing your browser's cookie storage, which will reset the consent record and prompt the notice to appear again on your next visit
Please note that blocking essential cookies may affect the operation of certain website features. Blocking analytics cookies will not affect your ability to access any part of the site.
Most browsers also support "Do Not Track" signals. Where this signal is detected, we treat it as a preference not to be tracked by analytics tools.
6. Third-Party Embedded Content
Our website includes an embedded Google Maps frame on the contact section of the homepage. Google Maps may set its own cookies when the embedded map is loaded. These are set by Google and are governed by Google's own privacy policy. We have no control over these cookies.
If you wish to view the map without Google's cookies being placed, you may instead search for our address directly on the Google Maps website or in your preferred mapping application.
Beyond the embedded map, we do not embed social media content or other third-party tracking elements.
7. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we change the cookies in use, or in response to changes in applicable law. The revision date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last amended. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
For a full description of how we handle personal information more broadly, including information collected through cookies, please see our Privacy Policy.
