Cookie Policy
Last Updated: July 2025
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies dxtrackings.co.uk uses, and how you can manage or disable them. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
By continuing to use this website after seeing our cookie consent notice, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy.
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, or tablet when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember information about your visit — such as which pages you viewed and how long you spent on the site. Cookies are used by almost every website on the internet to make them work efficiently and to provide useful information to the site owner.
Why Cookies Matter for This Site
This website uses cookies for three main reasons: to keep the tracking tool functioning correctly, to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it, and to display advertisements through Google AdSense. Google AdSense requires that sites using it disclose cookie use clearly and obtain consent from visitors where required — which is what this policy does.

Essential cookies are strictly necessary for this website to function. They enable core features such as the DX tracking tool and basic page navigation.
