Cookie
Policy.

This Cookie Policy explains how UL Mobiles Ltd trading as Bulk Mobile Wholesalers, referred to in this policy as BMW, we, us or our, uses cookies and similar technologies on bulkmobilewholesalers.com. It applies to every visitor using the website from the UK, European Economic Area or another location.

The policy explains what these technologies are, which categories BMW uses, why they may be needed, how long they last, when consent is required and how a visitor can accept, reject or change optional settings. It should be read with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data more broadly.

UL Mobiles Ltd is responsible for deciding which first-party cookies and similar technologies are used on this website and for providing the choices described in this policy. A third-party provider may be separately responsible for technology it controls on its own service.

A cookie is a small text file placed on a computer, phone, tablet or other device when a website is visited. It can help the website recognise the device, keep a session working, remember a choice, protect a form or understand how the website is being used.

Some cookies disappear when the browser closes. These are session cookies. Others remain for a stated period or until they are deleted. These are persistent cookies. Similar technologies, including local storage, pixels, tags and software development tools, may store information on or access information from a device and are covered by the same storage and access rules where applicable.

A cookie does not always identify a person by name. However, an identifier, IP address or activity record may be personal data when it relates to an identifiable individual. In that case, data protection law applies as well as the rules governing access to the device.

In the UK, our use of cookies and similar storage or access technologies is governed principally by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003, known as PECR, as amended. Where a technology processes personal data, the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018 also apply. Relevant amendments made by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 are included in this framework.

For visitors in the European Economic Area, the national law implementing the EU ePrivacy Directive may apply alongside the EU GDPR where its territorial-scope requirements are met. Because ePrivacy rules are implemented through each Member State, the exact local provision may differ, but the core approach remains clear information and prior consent for non-essential storage or access unless a lawful exception applies.

UK PECR now contains limited exceptions for certain statistical and appearance or functionality technologies when all statutory safeguards are met, including clear information and a simple means of objecting. BMW currently takes the more cautious approach described here and asks for consent before enabling optional analytics or functionality cookies.

1. 05.1

   Strictly necessary. These technologies support essential website operation, security, fraud prevention and the storage of a visitor's cookie choice. They cannot be switched off through the consent panel because the requested website service would not operate reliably without them. They do not require consent where the PECR or applicable ePrivacy exception applies.

2. 05.2

   Performance and analytics. These technologies can measure visits, page use, referral sources, time on the website and technical errors so BMW can improve the experience. BMW does not currently have a named analytics platform active. If Google Analytics or a similar tool is introduced, it will remain off until the visitor consents.

3. 05.3

   Functionality. These technologies can remember optional choices such as language, region, previously viewed content or other personalisation between visits. BMW does not currently set a named optional functionality cookie. Any such technology added later will require consent under BMW's present approach.

4. 05.4

   Marketing and targeting. These technologies can follow activity across websites, build advertising audiences or measure advertising campaigns. BMW does not currently use marketing or targeting cookies, and browsing activity on this site is not currently used to create advertising profiles.

5. 05.5

   Third-party. A third party may place or read a cookie when its service is embedded or activated. BMW does not currently embed maps, hosted videos, social feeds or live-chat tracking that sets optional third-party cookies on page load. Following an external link takes the visitor to another service governed by that provider's own policy.

The current website uses a first-party consent cookie to remember whether optional categories were accepted or rejected. Website security infrastructure may also issue a short security cookie when it needs to distinguish legitimate activity from automated or harmful traffic or when a visitor completes a security challenge.

No Google Analytics identifier, advertising pixel, optional personalisation cookie or marketing cookie was identified in the current website source at the policy review date. The consent panel still presents each optional category so that the visitor's instruction is recorded before any future integration is enabled.

Current enquiry forms keep progress only while the page is open and do not use a named persistent form-progress cookie. If secure account, ordering or session functionality is connected later, any new cookie will be reviewed, classified and added to the register before or when it becomes active.

1. 07.1

   Device storage or access. Strictly necessary and communications technologies are used under the applicable PECR or ePrivacy exception. Optional functionality, analytics and marketing technologies are used only after valid consent under BMW's present consent model.

2. 07.2

   Personal data in necessary cookies. Where necessary security or preference information is personal data, BMW generally relies on legitimate interests in operating and protecting the website, remembering a requested privacy choice and preventing fraud. We assess necessity and balance those interests against individual rights.

3. 07.3

   Personal data in optional cookies. Where an optional cookie processes personal data, consent is the lawful basis unless another basis is clearly identified in an updated policy and is lawful for the specific activity.

4. 07.4

   Withdrawal. Consent is voluntary and can be withdrawn as easily as it was given. Withdrawal does not make earlier processing unlawful, but BMW will stop future optional storage or access covered by that choice.

On a first visit, the website presents a cookie choice panel before any optional cookie is activated. A visitor can accept all categories, reject optional cookies or open the preference panel and decide by category. Strictly necessary technology remains active because it supports security and records the requested choice.

BMW remembers the choice for up to twelve months. We may ask again sooner if the visitor deletes the consent cookie, uses another browser or device, makes a fresh selection, or if the website's cookie use changes materially. After the stored choice expires, the panel appears again.

Accepting a category does not itself mean BMW has activated a service in that category. At the current review date, the analytics, functionality and marketing categories have no active optional provider. The saved choice controls whether a future consent-based integration may start.

1. 09.1

   BMW preference panel. Select Cookie Settings in the website footer at any time. Change one or more optional categories and save the new selection, or reject every optional category.

2. 09.2

   Browser controls. Most browsers allow cookies to be viewed, blocked or deleted for one website or all websites. The exact steps depend on the browser and device.

3. 09.3

   Third-party controls. Where an optional provider is introduced, its own opt-out tool may offer an additional control. For example, Google provides an Analytics opt-out browser add-on, but Google Analytics is not currently active on this website.

4. 09.4

   Effect of blocking. Blocking necessary cookies may prevent the website from remembering a privacy choice, maintaining security or delivering future session-based features. Rejecting optional cookies will not prevent access to the main public website.

Cookie settings are usually found under Privacy, Security, Site Data or Cookies in the browser menu. Visitors can commonly delete existing cookies, block all cookies, block third-party cookies, create exceptions for selected sites or ask the browser to clear site data when it closes.

A browser's Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal may express a privacy preference, but browser support and the legal effect of a signal vary by jurisdiction and technology. BMW does not currently run advertising tracking. The most reliable control for this website is Cookie Settings in the footer combined with the visitor's browser controls.

The table below identifies the first-party cookie used by the current website and the security cookies that may be issued conditionally by the hosting and security provider. Conditional means the cookie is not placed on every visit and appears only when the relevant security feature is triggered.

Security cookie availability and exact lifetime may depend on the protection rule triggered for a request. A cookie shown as conditional is not necessarily present on the visitor’s device.

BMW may in future introduce a proportionate analytics tool to understand aggregate website use. If Google Analytics is selected, common identifiers may include _ga and a property-specific _ga identifier, normally used to distinguish visits and maintain session information for measurement. These identifiers are not currently set by BMW and will not be activated without the visitor's relevant choice.

BMW does not currently use advertising cookies such as Google Ads, Meta Pixel or other cross-site targeting identifiers. We also do not currently embed optional map, video, social-feed or live-chat tools that start tracking when this website loads. The policy and consent panel will be updated before a materially different technology is introduced.

The website contains links to external services, including WhatsApp, social channels, regulators and professional resources. A normal link does not allow that external service to place a cookie through BMW's page merely because the link is visible. If the visitor follows it, the destination service may process information and set its own cookies under its own terms and policy.

Where BMW later embeds a third-party feature directly, we will assess the provider, the technology it uses, the purpose, the data flow, the required consent and any international transfer. Optional embedded content will remain blocked until the required choice has been made.

Security technology may process an IP address, request information, browser characteristics and a security identifier to identify malicious traffic, protect forms and keep the website available. These controls are limited to security and operational purposes and are not used by BMW for advertising.

BMW records the optional category choice and the time it was updated inside the consent cookie. This helps demonstrate that a choice was made and prevents the panel from appearing on every page. The record does not contain a visitor's name, company, email address or WhatsApp number.

Some website, security, analytics or functionality providers may process information on servers outside the United Kingdom or European Economic Area. A cookie identifier or related technical record can be personal data even when it does not contain a person's name.

Where BMW initiates a restricted transfer, we use the safeguard required by the applicable framework. This may include UK adequacy regulations, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or UK Addendum, EU adequacy decisions, EU Standard Contractual Clauses and a proportionate transfer-risk assessment. A provider's own transfer terms do not remove BMW's responsibility to assess the processing it chooses to use.

A session cookie normally ends when the browser session ends. A persistent cookie remains until its stated expiry date unless the visitor deletes it sooner. Security cookies may expire quickly, while a consent record lasts longer so the website can respect the choice across visits.

BMW keeps cookie duration proportionate to purpose and reviews optional technologies before implementation and periodically thereafter. We will remove, shorten or reclassify a cookie where the purpose, provider or technical behaviour no longer justifies its current treatment.

We may update this policy when website functionality, providers, cookie names, retention settings, legal requirements or regulatory guidance changes. The last-updated date at the top of the page identifies the current published version.

If a change materially affects optional choices, we may reset the consent record, show the panel again or provide another prominent notice before the changed technology is used.

For a question about a cookie, a consent choice, website tracking or related personal data, contact UL Mobiles Ltd trading as Bulk Mobile Wholesalers. Please state the browser and device used, the cookie name if known and what you would like us to investigate. Do not send unnecessary identity documents.

Further information about personal-data use, individual rights and complaints is available in our Privacy Policy. In the UK, a visitor may also contact the Information Commissioner's Office if they remain concerned about how their information or cookie choices have been handled.
