Our website uses cookies to enhance your browsing experience, analyse site traffic, and provide relevant content and advertising. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us understand how you interact with our site and remember your preferences. By using our website, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy. You can manage your preferences at any time via the Cookie Settings.
What cookies are
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device — computer, phone, or tablet — when you visit a website. It typically contains the name of the site it came from, how long it will remain on your device, and a unique identifier. Cookies help us enhance your experience, remember your preferences, analyse traffic, and deliver relevant content.
How do we use them?
To enable essential site functionality, remember your settings, understand how you interact with the site, improve performance, analyse traffic patterns, deliver relevant content and advertising, and measure the effectiveness of our marketing.
What about your consent?
By continuing to use the site, you consent to our use of cookies as described here. When you first visit, a banner lets you accept or customise your preferences, and you can change them at any time via the Cookie Settings link. Cookies that are not strictly necessary are only placed with your consent.
Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
These are essential for the site to function and cannot be disabled. They enable navigation, provide access to secure areas, remember your consent preferences, and maintain security. They are necessary for the legitimate operation of the website and run either as session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or as persistent cookies for a defined period.
Performance and analytics cookies
These help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. They track which pages are visited most, how visitors navigate, where errors occur, and where traffic comes from. The data is anonymous and aggregated — it cannot identify you personally. We use services such as Google Analytics and Meta Pixel. Legal basis: your consent. Duration: typically up to two years. Some of these are third-party cookies set by external analytics providers.
Functional cookies
These enable enhanced functionality and personalisation. They remember preferences like language, region, and text size, recognise you on return visits, provide personalised content, and remember login details where applicable. Legal basis: your consent. Duration: typically up to one year.
Advertising and marketing cookies
Used by us and third-party partners to deliver ads relevant to your interests. They track browsing behaviour across sites, build an interest profile, deliver targeted ads, measure campaign effectiveness, and limit ad repetition. Partners include Google Ads and Meta Pixel. Legal basis: your consent. Duration: typically one to two years. These are third-party cookies, and the partners may also use the data for their own purposes — their privacy policies apply alongside ours.
You decide what we remember.
First-party, third-party, session, persistent
What's the difference?
First-party cookies are set by us and can only be read by our site. Third-party cookies are set by external services such as analytics or advertising platforms, and can track activity across multiple websites. Session cookies are temporary and deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period, or until you delete them. We use a mix of all four, and you have control over which categories you accept.
Managing your preferences
Through the site
Use the Cookie Settings link on the site to customise which categories you accept or reject. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled — the site will not function without them.
Through your browser
Most browsers let you manage cookies in their settings — block all cookies, block only third-party cookies, delete cookies after each session, or receive notifications before cookies are placed. Instructions are available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera.
Opting out of third-party advertising
You can opt out of interest-based advertising through Your Online Choices in the EU, the Network Advertising Initiative in the US, or the Digital Advertising Alliance. For Google Analytics specifically, install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
A note on functionality
Disabling cookies will affect the site. Some features will not work as intended, and parts of the experience will degrade. That trade-off is yours to make.
Other things worth knowing
Do Not Track
Some browsers send a Do Not Track signal to websites. There is no universal standard for how sites should respond, and at present we do not respond to DNT signals. The controls described above are the reliable way to manage what we store.
Cookies and personal data
Most cookies do not identify you directly. Some — particularly analytics and advertising cookies — may collect data that counts as personal data under GDPR. How we handle personal data is covered in our Privacy Policy.
Changes to this policy
We update this policy when technology, legislation, or our practices change. The "Last Updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. For significant changes that affect your rights, we will post a prominent notice on the site or email you directly if we have your address.
