Summary. We use strictly necessary cookies to operate the site. Analytics and marketing cookies are optional and only activated when you consent through our banner or cookie settings, unless an exemption applies.
What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make sites work more efficiently, remember preferences, and understand how visitors use a service. Similar technologies include pixels, local storage, session storage, and scripts that store or access information on your device.
This policy uses the word “cookies” to describe cookies and similar technologies collectively, except where we need to distinguish a specific mechanism.
Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our preference centre. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting privacy preferences, logging in where applicable, or filling in forms. They may also support security features such as load balancing or abuse prevention.
Analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the site, for example which pages are visited most often, how long sessions last, and whether errors occur. Information may be aggregated or pseudonymised. We use analytics cookies only where you have consented to them, or where a narrow exemption applies under applicable rules.
Marketing cookies
These cookies may be used to build a profile of your interests and show relevant content or advertising on this site or elsewhere. We do not use marketing cookies unless you have provided consent through our controls or another lawful basis applies.
How we obtain and record consent
When you first visit our site, we show a cookie banner that lets you accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or open detailed settings. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent under applicable UK rules because they are essential to provide the online service you request.
Your choices are stored locally where possible so we do not have to ask you on every visit. You can reopen cookie settings at any time using the “Cookie settings” control in the site footer.
If you change your mind, you can withdraw consent for optional cookies by adjusting your preferences or using browser controls as described below. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before you withdrew.
Storage duration
Cookie lifetimes vary. Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until you delete them. Analytics and marketing tools may have default retention periods set by their providers; we configure these where possible to align with our data minimisation principles.
Third-party providers
Depending on how you interact with the site, third parties such as hosting providers, analytics platforms, or advertising networks may set or read cookies on our behalf. These providers are required to use data in accordance with our instructions and applicable contracts. Their own privacy notices may provide additional detail about how they process data.
We review third-party tools periodically to ensure they remain appropriate for our purposes and comply with UK data protection requirements.
Browser and device controls
Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies through settings. You can usually find these options under privacy or security menus. Blocking all cookies may affect how the site functions, and some features may not work as intended.
Browser vendors publish guidance on managing cookies, and you can also use industry opt-out tools where available for certain types of advertising cookies.
Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may revise this Cookie Policy when our practices, tools, or legal requirements change. Material updates will be reflected in the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If we need to obtain fresh consent for a new type of cookie, we will present an updated choice where required.
