Cookies allow websites to remember your preferences, login status, and other information that makes your browsing experience more convenient and personalised. They can be set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by third-party services that the website uses (third-party cookies).

These cookies are essential for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

Cookie Consent Banner

When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to:

Google Consent Mode v2

Our website implements Google Consent Mode v2, which allows us to adjust how Google Analytics and Google Ads behave based on your consent preferences. When you decline certain categories of cookies, we signal to Google services to operate in a limited mode that respects your privacy choices whilst still providing basic functionality.

This ensures that your consent preferences are respected across all Google services integrated into our website, including analytics and advertising features.

Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. Currently, there is no standard way for websites to respond to Do Not Track signals, and we do not respond to such signals at this time.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the updated policy on our website and updating the "last updated" date.

We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies and related technologies.
