Cookie Policy

Last updated: May 2026

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are used to make websites work correctly, remember your preferences, and provide information to site owners about how their site is used.

Some cookies are essential for the website to function. Others are used for analytics or advertising and require your consent under UK law (PECR 2003, as amended).

2. How We Use Cookies

Strictly necessary

Required for the website to work. These do not collect information that could identify or track you and do not require your consent.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our website — which pages are visited, how people arrive, and how they interact with content. These cookies are only set with your consent.

Marketing and advertising

We may use Meta Pixel (Facebook / Instagram) to measure advertising performance and show relevant ads to people who have visited our site. These cookies are only set with your consent.

Note on Cloudflare Analytics: we use Cloudflare Analytics to monitor site performance. Cloudflare Analytics does not place any cookies on your device — it uses a cookieless, server-side measurement method and does not require your consent.
