Cookie Policy

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a site to remember information between pages and between visits, such as which items you have interacted with or whether you have dismissed a notice.

Similar technologies including local storage and pixels work in comparable ways. Where this policy refers to cookies, it covers those too.

2. Our approach

This website is built as a set of static pages and uses very few cookies. We do not use advertising cookies, we do not build advertising profiles, and we do not permit third parties to track you across other websites through this one.

3. Categories of cookie we use

Strictly necessary cookies. These are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They handle things such as remembering your cookie preferences and maintaining basic security. No consent is required for these because the site cannot operate without them.

Analytics cookies. Where enabled, these help us understand in aggregate how visitors use the site: which pages are read, how people arrive, and where they leave. The data is aggregated and is not used to identify you individually. These are only set where you have consented, if consent is required in your jurisdiction.

Functional cookies. These remember preferences you have expressed, such as a dismissed banner, so the site behaves consistently across visits.

We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies on this website.

4. Third-party cookies

Some pages may include content or functionality provided by third parties, such as an embedded review widget or a live chat tool. Where present, those services may set their own cookies, governed by their own policies rather than this one.

We limit third-party embeds to those we consider necessary, precisely because each one adds both a privacy cost and a performance cost.

5. How long cookies last

Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or you remove them.

The cookies used on this site are short-lived by design. Preference cookies typically last up to twelve months so you are not asked the same question on every visit; analytics cookies, where used, follow the retention set by the analytics provider.

6. Managing cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Every major browser lets you view existing cookies, delete them individually or entirely, and block them from being set:

• Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies
• Firefox: Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Settings, then Privacy
• Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions

Blocking all cookies may affect how parts of this or other websites behave. Blocking only third-party cookies rarely causes problems and meaningfully reduces cross-site tracking.

Most browsers also offer a private or incognito mode, which discards cookies at the end of the session.

7. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Browser-based signals such as Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control are not implemented consistently across the web. Where we are legally required to honour such a signal, we do so.

8. Changes to this policy

If the cookies used on this site change, this policy will be updated and the date at the top of the page revised.
