Cookie policy

1. What cookies are, and the law that covers them

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device. Some are essential for a service to work. Others are used to remember your choices or to measure and track how you use a site. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work in the same way and are covered by this policy too.

In the UK, cookies are governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), alongside the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 for any personal data a cookie involves. Under PECR, we must tell you about the cookies we use and, for anything beyond what is strictly necessary, ask for your consent before we set them. The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) regulates and provides guidance on this atico.org.uk.

2. What this website uses

Cookie-free analytics, no consent needed. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics and Ahrefs Web Analytics to see how many people visit, where they come from and which pages are popular. Both are built to be cookie-free: they do not use cookies, do not store personal identifiers on your device, and cannot follow you across other websites or identify you individually. Because they set nothing on your device, they are not "cookies" for the purposes of this policy.

Google Analytics, only if you accept. When you first visit, a banner asks whether you will allow analytics cookies. Until you click Accept, nothing from Google is loaded and no Google Analytics cookie is set. Accept and Reject are equally easy to use. We do not use advertising or marketing cookies, and we never treat scrolling or continued browsing as consent.

Our fonts and images are served from the site itself, not from third parties. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, also delivers the site and handles some security checks; at the time of writing none of that sets cookies on this website.

The cookies Google Analytics sets if you accept

• _ga: tells Google Analytics apart one browser from another so it can count visitors. Lasts up to 2 years.
• _ga_ followed by an identifier: remembers the state of your current visit (a session). Lasts up to 2 years.

Google Analytics receives information about your visit, such as the pages you view, how you arrived, your approximate location and your device and browser, and Google processes it for us. We keep it for no longer than 14 months. Google may process data outside the UK; see our privacy policy for the safeguards we rely on.

Your choice is remembered in your browser's local storage (a small entry on your device that records only whether you accepted or rejected), so we do not ask you again on every page. This entry is strictly necessary to respect your choice and is not used for tracking.

3. Services that can set their own cookies

The security check on our enquiry form

The contact page uses Cloudflare Turnstile, a security check that helps us keep automated spam out. It loads a small script from Cloudflare, and in our testing it does not set any cookies or local storage on this website. The check runs in a frame that belongs to Cloudflare, so anything stored there is governed by Cloudflare's privacy policy.

4. Essential cookies and your consent

PECR exempts cookies that are "strictly necessary" for a service you have specifically asked for from the requirement to get your consent. This website sets no cookie like that. Google Analytics is not strictly necessary, so we ask for your consent before it is set, as the law requires. If you do not accept, the website works exactly the same.

5. Controlling and withdrawing consent

You can change your choice at any time: click Cookie settings in the footer of any page, then Accept or Reject. Rejecting after accepting stops Google Analytics and removes its cookies from this site. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; aboutcookies.org explains how in common browsers. Google also offers a browser add-on that stops Google Analytics on all websites.

6. Questions, complaints and changes
