Cookie Policy

1.1 Cookies

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) by a website you visit. Cookies allow websites to remember information about your visit — such as your login status, preferences, or the contents of a shopping cart — so the site works properly when you return or navigate between pages.

1.2 Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, we use similar technologies including web beacons (also called pixel tags or clear GIFs), JavaScript tags, and local storage. These work similarly to cookies and are used to track interactions and deliver functionality. For simplicity, all of these are referred to as "cookies" throughout this policy.

1.3 First-Party vs Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by tayohost.com and are used to make our website work properly. Third-party cookies are set by external services that we use, such as Google Analytics or Meta (Facebook). Third-party cookies are governed by the privacy policies of those third parties, not by Tayo Host.

2.1 Strictly Essential Cookies

These cookies are required for the website and client portal to function. They cannot be disabled. Without them, services you have requested — such as logging into your client account or completing a purchase — cannot be provided. No consent is required for strictly essential cookies under applicable law.

2.2 Analytics Cookies

These cookies require your consent. They help us understand how visitors use our website so we can improve it. They collect information in an aggregated, anonymised form and do not identify you personally.

2.3 Marketing and Advertising Cookies

These cookies require your explicit consent. They are used to show you relevant advertising on other websites after you have visited tayohost.com, and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These cookies track your browsing behaviour across multiple websites.

2.4 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember your preferences to improve your experience. We currently use a limited number of functional cookies:

4.1 How We Obtain Consent

When you visit tayohost.com for the first time, a cookie consent banner is displayed. You can choose to accept all cookies, accept only essential cookies, or customise your preferences by category. We do not load analytics or marketing cookies until you have given your consent. Your consent is recorded and stored so we do not ask you again on every visit.

4.2 Changing Your Preferences

You can update your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the cookie settings link in the footer of our website. You can withdraw your consent to analytics or marketing cookies at any time, and the relevant cookies will be removed from your browser.

4.3 Browser Controls

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, and delete cookies. Note that blocking strictly essential cookies will prevent you from logging into your client account and completing purchases on our website. Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers:
