Cookies are small files stored by your browser. Similar technologies, such as local storage, can remember information on your device. This page describes the storage configured by West Midlands Coaches Limited on wmc-uk.com.

Advertising And Analytics
We do not currently install advertising or analytics scripts on this website. There are therefore no optional advertising or analytics categories to accept in the current banner. Any future optional technologies requiring consent must be blocked until you choose to enable them.
Google Maps
When you use address search or calculate a route, the website loads Google Maps services and sends your search terms, addresses or route locations to Google. Google may also receive your IP address and browser information. We use this integration to provide the address and route functionality you request. Google’s processing is governed by its Privacy Policy. Depending on your browser and existing Google sessions, Google may use its own storage; this is separate from WMC’s first-party entries listed above.
If you prefer not to use Google Maps through the form, contact us by telephone or email for a quote instead.
Manage Storage
You can reopen the notice using in the footer. You can also delete or block cookies and site storage through your browser. Blocking the admin session cookie prevents staff login; deleting the notice entry makes the banner reappear. Reopening the notice does not remove an existing Google session or Google’s storage; manage that through your browser and Google account settings.
