Cookie Policy

Effective date: 1 January 2024

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognise your device, remember preferences and gather usage information. We also use similar technologies such as local storage and pixel tags — throughout this policy these are all referred to as "cookies".

2. How we use cookies

We use cookies to make our website function correctly, to remember your preferences, to understand how visitors interact with the site, and to measure the effectiveness of our marketing.

3. Categories of cookies

• Strictly necessary — required for core site functions such as page navigation and form submission. The site cannot function properly without these and they cannot be switched off in our systems.
• Preferences — remember choices you make (such as language or region) to provide a more personal experience.
• Analytics — help us understand how visitors use our website by collecting aggregated, anonymised information (for example page views, session duration, referral source). We may use services such as Google Analytics for this purpose.
• Third-party embeds — set by external services embedded on our pages, including Google Maps (map display) and YouTube (video playback). These providers may set their own cookies subject to their own privacy notices.

4. Third parties

We do not control the cookies set by third-party services. Please refer to the relevant provider's policy for details:

• Google (Analytics, Maps, YouTube) — policies.google.com/technologies/cookies
• Meta / Facebook — facebook.com/privacy/policies/cookies

5. Managing cookies

Most browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies from any website. Instructions for common browsers:

• Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
• Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
• Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
• Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions

Blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of the website to stop working. Blocking analytics or third-party cookies will not affect core functionality.

6. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There is currently no industry-wide standard for how sites should respond to DNT signals, and this website does not alter its behaviour in response to DNT.

7. Changes

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Material changes will be indicated by updating the effective date at the top of this page.
