COOKIE POLICY

Cookies are small files stored on your device by a website. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and tags. We use them to keep the site working and — only with your permission — to measure how it is used and to measure advertising.

In line with the EU GDPR, the ePrivacy Directive and PECR, everything except strictly necessary cookies is blocked until you opt in. We use Google Consent Mode v2 with all storage set to denied by default, so no analytics or advertising identifiers are written before you accept.

You can accept all, reject all non-essential cookies, or choose categories individually, and you can change your mind at any time.

Cookie settings

• Strictly necessary — required for the site to work, including remembering your cookie choice. These do not need consent and cannot be switched off.
• Analytics — Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager, used to understand which pages and services people find useful. Loaded only after consent.
• Marketing — Google Ads conversion tracking and the Meta Pixel, used to measure and improve advertising. Loaded only after consent.

Analytics and advertising cookies are set by Google (Google Ireland Limited) and Meta (Meta Platforms Ireland Limited). These providers may process data outside the UK and EEA under Standard Contractual Clauses. Their own privacy notices explain how they handle that data.

Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies typically last from a few days up to 24 months depending on the provider. Your consent record is refreshed at least every 12 months.

You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings, and most browsers offer a private browsing mode. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site working. Clearing your cookies also clears your stored consent choice, so the banner will reappear.

For how we handle personal data more generally, including your rights and how to complain, see our Privacy Policy.
