Cookie Policy
What cookies and similar technologies this website uses, why, and how you stay in control of them.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as local storage and session storage, keep small pieces of information on your device in the same way. We use them to keep the site secure and working, and — only with your permission — to remember your preferences and load content from other services.
Your choices
When you first visit, a banner asks for your consent. You can:
- Accept All — allow every category below.
- Reject Non-Essential — allow only the strictly necessary cookies the site needs to work.
- Customize — switch each optional category on or off.
Your choice is saved for 6 months. You can change or withdraw it at any time:
Cookie categories
- Strictly necessary — required for security, forms, payments and remembering your consent. These cannot be switched off.
- Preferences — remember details you entered so you do not have to type them again.
- Analytics — help us understand how the site is used. We do not currently run any analytics tools; if we add one, it will only load after you allow this category.
- Third-party & marketing — embedded content from other providers, such as Google Maps. Until you allow this, maps show a placeholder you can choose to load.
