1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function properly, remember your preferences, and give us insight into how visitors use the site. Some cookies are set by us directly; others are set by third-party services we use, such as Google.

2. How we use cookies

We use cookies to:

Keep the website running smoothly (essential cookies)
Remember your cookie consent choices (via CookieHub)
Understand how visitors find and use our site (Google Analytics)
Measure and improve the performance of our Google Ads campaigns (Google Ads)

3. Cookie consent

We use CookieHub as our consent management platform. When you first visit our site, a cookie banner lets you choose which categories of cookies to accept. Non-essential cookies (analytics and advertising) are only set once you’ve given consent, in line with the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time via the “Cookie Preferences” link in our website footer, which reopens the CookieHub banner.

Google Analytics and Google Ads are provided by Google. Data collected through these cookies is processed by Google in line with their own privacy policy. Where advertising cookies are active, this may include personalised advertising and remarketing (showing you our ads on other sites after you’ve visited ours).

You can:

Opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on
Manage the ads you see across Google’s services via Google Ads Settings (myadcenter.google.com)
Read Google’s own policy at policies.google.com/privacy
