Cookie policy.
This page lists the cookies used on this website, what each category does, and how you can control them. Nothing beyond strictly necessary cookies is set until you consent.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website you visit. It allows the site to remember information between pages and between visits — for example, whether you have already accepted the cookie banner, or which pages you found useful.
First-party and third-party
First-party cookies are set by us. Third-party cookies are set by services we use, such as analytics or advertising providers.
Session and persistent
Session cookies expire when you close the browser. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period.
Not all cookies are tracking
Some are essential for the site to function at all, such as remembering a form submission or your consent choice.
The categories we use
Strictly necessary
Required for the site to operate securely and to remember your cookie choice. These cannot be switched off, because the site would not work reliably without them.
Analytics
Aggregate measurement of how pages are used — which pages are visited, how visitors arrive and where they leave. Loaded only after you consent.
Marketing
Used to measure whether advertising has been effective, and to avoid showing the same message repeatedly. Loaded only after you consent.
Preferences
Remember choices such as your consent state or a selected region, so you are not asked repeatedly.
How consent works here
On your first visit you are asked which categories you accept. Strictly necessary cookies are set regardless, because they are required for the site to function. Analytics and marketing cookies are set only if you agree.
- Your choice is recorded so you are not asked on every page
- You can change your choice at any time using the cookie banner or the link in the footer
- Withdrawing consent stops new cookies being set; it does not automatically delete existing ones
- We do not use consent as a condition of using the site
- Rejecting analytics does not restrict any content or service on this site
Controlling cookies in your browser
Every major browser lets you view, block and delete cookies. The exact route differs, so use your browser's help pages. Blocking all cookies will affect parts of this site and many others.
Blocking necessary cookies
The site may not remember your consent choice or complete certain interactions correctly.
Deleting existing cookies
Clears stored preferences. You will be asked for consent again on your next visit.
Private browsing
Most private windows discard cookies when closed, which prevents persistent tracking.
Third-party cookies
Governed by the provider's own policy; you can often opt out through that provider directly.
Changes to this policy
If we add a cookie or change a provider, we update this page and, where the change is material, ask for consent again. The date at the foot of the page shows when it was last reviewed.
The things people ask before they commit.
If yours is not here, ask it directly — the answer comes from the person who would do the work.
One working day, no sales sequence afterwards.
Ask your questionDo you set cookies before I consent?
Only strictly necessary ones, which the site requires to function and to record your choice.
Can I use the site without analytics cookies?
Yes. Rejecting analytics has no effect on the content or services available.
Can I withdraw consent later?
Yes, at any time through the cookie banner. Withdrawal stops new cookies being set.
Does blocking cookies delete the ones already set?
No. You need to clear them in your browser settings as well.
Where can I learn more about cookies?
The Information Commissioner's Office publishes guidance, and most browsers explain their own cookie settings.
