Cookie policy

Last updated: 13.07.26

This Cookie Policy explains how Pioneer Foods UK Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on fruit-bowl.com (the “website”). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

We use cookies in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit. Cookies let a website recognise your device, remember your preferences and understand how the site is being used. Similar technologies such as pixels, tags and local storage work in comparable ways, and where we refer to “cookies” in this policy we mean all of these technologies.

How we ask for your consent

When you first visit our website, a consent banner appears allowing you to accept or reject cookies by category. Cookies that are not strictly necessary are only set once you give your consent. Cookies classified as strictly necessary (functional) do not require consent because the website cannot work properly without them.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the white pop-up in the bottom-right of the window which reopens your cookie preferences.

The categories of cookies we use

Functional (strictly necessary). These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences or completing a form. Without them, parts of the website will not work.

Preferences. These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your region or preferred settings) to give you enhanced, more personalised features.

Statistics. These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website by collecting and reporting information anonymously — for example which pages are visited most often. We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) for this purpose.

Marketing. These cookies may be set through our site by us or our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and measure the effectiveness of advertising. We only set these cookies where you have given consent.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third parties that provide services on our website. These include:

  • Google Analytics 4 – website analytics and usage statistics. You can opt out across all sites using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. See also Google’s Privacy Policy.
  • Embedded media and social content (for example YouTube videos, or Instagram/Facebook/TikTok feeds) – where we embed content from third-party platforms, those providers may set their own cookies when the content loads. We use privacy-enhanced modes where available.

We do not control third-party cookies, and we recommend reviewing the relevant provider’s own privacy and cookie policies for more detail.
