Cookie Policy

Last Updated: 28 June 2025

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make sites work properly and to give site owners useful information about how their pages are used.

Cookies cannot run programmes or deliver viruses. They simply allow a website to recognise your browser and remember certain information — for example, whether you have already accepted a notice like this one.

Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies Always active

These are needed for the website to function at a basic level. They manage session security and remember your cookie consent choice. They cannot be switched off.

Examples: cookieConsent (localStorage), session identifiers.

Analytics Cookies Optional

These help us understand how visitors use the site — which pages are viewed most often and where people spend time. The data is aggregated and anonymised; no individual is identified.

Examples: Google Analytics (if enabled).

Marketing Cookies Optional

These may be used to show relevant information to people who have visited this site, via advertising platforms. We currently make limited use of marketing cookies.

Examples: Facebook Pixel, Google Ads (if enabled).

Preference Cookies Optional

These remember choices you make — such as your preferred language or region — so the site behaves as you expect on future visits.

Examples: Language preference, display settings.

Third-Party Cookies

Some optional cookies are placed by third-party services we may use, including:

  • Google Analytics — anonymous site usage statistics
  • Google Ads — advertising performance (if campaigns are active)
  • Meta (Facebook) Pixel — advertising measurement (if campaigns are active)

These services have their own privacy policies. You can find more information on their respective websites.

How Long Cookies Last

  • Session cookies: Deleted automatically when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies: Remain on your device for a set period. Our cookie consent record (localStorage) has no expiry — it persists until you clear it or change your preferences here.
  • Third-party analytics cookies: Typically 13–26 months, depending on the provider.

Managing Cookies in Your Browser

You can also control cookies directly through your browser settings. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect how this site works.
