The short version

What this page covers

This cookie policy explains how this website uses cookies and similar technologies, which ones are needed for the site to work, which are optional, and how you can change or withdraw your choices. It also sets out how long cookies stay on your device and who to contact if something is unclear.

  • Essential cookies keep forms and security working.
  • Analytics cookies, where used, show which pages get read.
  • No advertising or profiling cookies are used here.
  • You can accept, decline or clear cookies at any time.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help a site function, remember preferences, or measure how pages are used. Some are essential; others are optional.

A cookie is not a program and it cannot run on your device. It is a short record a site asks your browser to keep, and your browser hands it back on the next visit so the site recognises the same session. Similar technologies — for example local storage used to remember a choice — work in the same spirit, and this policy covers them too.

Why a site sets them

Two reasons matter here: keeping the site stable while you use it, and understanding which pages visitors actually read so we can keep the useful ones in good shape.

What they are not

They are not malware, not software you install, and not a way to read other files on your computer. They only carry back what the site itself stored.

Cookies we use

Two groups only. One keeps the site working while you move through it; the other, where it is switched on, tells us which pages are worth improving. Nothing here is used to build a profile of you.

No advertising cookies

Essential cookies

These keep the site working. They handle form submissions, remember that a request has already been sent, and support the basic security checks that keep a contact form from being abused. They are set when the site is loaded and are needed for the pages to behave as described.

Because they carry out a task you asked for, they cannot be switched off through the cookie notice. You can still block them in your browser, but parts of the site — mainly the contact form — may stop working as expected.

Analytics cookies

Where used, these show which pages get visited and how visitors move between them. The picture is aggregate — we look at pages, not people. They are optional and can be declined in the cookie notice.

Preference cookies

If you make a choice in the cookie notice, that choice is stored so you are not asked again on every page. It holds your decision and nothing else.

Advertising cookies

Not used. This site does not set cookies for advertising, retargeting or profiling, and it does not share cookie data with ad networks.

Your control

Optional cookies stay off until you accept them, and you can change or withdraw that choice at any time through the cookie notice or your browser settings.

Your choices

You can accept or decline non-essential cookies through the cookie notice on the site. You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect how the site functions.

Option one

Use the cookie notice

The notice appears on your first visit. Accept or decline the optional cookies there, and your answer is stored so the site stops asking. Change your mind later by clearing that choice in your browser.

Option two

Change browser settings

Every major browser lets you view stored cookies, block them by site, or delete them. Look for the privacy or site-data section in your browser's settings; the wording differs from browser to browser.

Option three

Browse in private mode

Private or incognito windows drop most cookies when you close them. That suits a one-off visit, though it also means preferences and form progress are not kept.

Third-party cookies

Where third-party services are used, they may set their own cookies. These are governed by the respective provider's policies. We limit such services to those needed for the site to operate — for example a font or script host that delivers part of a page.

Those providers decide what their own cookies do and how long they last, and they publish their own cookie and privacy notices. If you would rather avoid them entirely, your browser's block-third-party-cookies setting is the direct route.

What stays the same

We do not use third-party services to track you across other websites, and we do not sell or trade cookie data. The list of services is kept as short as the site allows.

Retention

Cookie lifetimes vary. Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period or until you delete them.

A stored cookie choice usually lasts long enough that the notice does not reappear on every visit; an analytics cookie is typically set to expire after a short, defined window. Clearing cookies in your browser removes both, and the next visit starts fresh.

Managing cookies

Most browsers let you view, block and delete cookies through their settings. Instructions are available from your browser's help pages.
