Google Analytics 4 measures page visits and website usage. Optional analytics storage follows your choice in Cookie settings.

Cookie Policy
Cookies are small files stored on your device by a website. This policy explains how they are used on the APL Shippers website.
Essential cookies and storage
These are needed for the website to do what you asked it to do, and under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations they do not require your consent:
Your cookie choice — when you accept or reject advertising cookies, that decision is stored in your browser so we do not ask you again on every page.
Browser storage for the quote form — your browser may temporarily hold the details you have typed so they are not lost as you move between steps of the form.
Security and abuse prevention — our hosting provider may set a short-lived token to distinguish people from automated scripts submitting the quote form.
Advertising cookies — only with your permission
We advertise on Google. To understand which adverts lead to genuine quote requests, this website loads the Google tag (gtag.js), supplied by Google Ireland Limited.
It is configured with Google Consent Mode v2 set to denied by default. In plain terms: until you press “Accept” in the cookie banner, Google does not write advertising cookies to your device. Because this site uses advanced consent mode, the Google tag may still send cookieless consent and measurement pings containing consent status, page and referrer information, and basic browser or network details. If you accept, Google may set cookies such as _gcl_au to link a quote request back to the advert you clicked.
These cookies are used to:
measure how many quote requests came from our Google adverts;
avoid paying for adverts that do not work;
show our adverts to people who have visited the site before.
Pressing “Reject” is a genuine rejection: no advertising cookies are set, and you can use every part of this website exactly as before, including the quote form.
Changing your mind
Your choice is stored in your own browser. To change it, clear this site’s cookies and site data in your browser settings — the banner will appear again on your next visit.
If this changes
If further analytics, advertising or other non-essential cookies are introduced in future, this page will be updated and they will be placed behind the same consent choice, so no non-essential cookies or browser storage are used before you agree. Cookieless signals sent under advanced consent mode are described above.
Managing cookies
You can delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking all cookies may prevent parts of this or other websites from working correctly.
