Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 8 May 2025 | Effective: 8 May 2025
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They help the site work correctly, remember your preferences, and — where you have agreed — provide usage data that helps us understand how the site is used.
Cookies do not contain personal information on their own. Where analytics cookies are in use, data is collected in aggregate and anonymised form. You can manage or withdraw your consent at any time using the controls below.
2. Cookie Types We Use
These are required for the website to function. They enable navigation, basic security features, and the cookie preference system itself. They cannot be disabled.
Duration: session or up to 12 months | Third-party: no
These collect anonymised data about how visitors use the site — which pages are visited, how long sessions last, and how users arrive. We use this to improve the site's structure and content. No personally identifiable information is recorded.
Duration: up to 26 months | Third-party: Google Analytics (if enabled)
Marketing cookies may be set if third-party advertising tools are enabled. They track activity across sites to inform advertising relevance. We do not currently operate advertising campaigns, but this category is available should that change.
Duration: up to 90 days | Third-party: varies by provider
These remember choices you have made on the site — such as display settings or region — so you do not need to re-select them on each visit.
Duration: up to 12 months | Third-party: no
3. Your Cookie Preferences
Use the toggles below to manage your preferences. Essential cookies cannot be disabled. Your choices are saved to your device and applied on future visits to this site.
4. Cookie Duration
| Type | Duration | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Session | Until browser closes | Used for basic navigation state |
| Persistent (short) | Up to 90 days | Marketing and short-term preference storage |
| Persistent (long) | Up to 26 months | Analytics (e.g. Google Analytics returning user tracking) |
| Consent record | Up to 12 months | Stores your cookie preference choice (localStorage) |
5. Third-Party Cookies
Where optional cookie categories are enabled, third-party providers may set cookies on our behalf. These providers have their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review.
