Cookie Policy

We only use analytics cookies if you say yes. Here's exactly what that means.

Last updated: 28 September 2026

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website can save in your browser, so it can recognise your browser when you come back. Websites use them to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, count visitors or show targeted adverts.

Similar technologies do the same kind of job in other ways: storing data in your browser (“local storage”), invisible tracking images (“pixels”), or identifying your device from its settings (“fingerprinting”). This policy covers all of them.

Cookies on this website

We use Google Analytics to understand which pages people read and how they find us, but only if you accept. Until you do, nothing is loaded from Google and no analytics cookies are set. This is everything the website can store in your browser:

By type:

TypeWhat it's usually forUsed here?
Strictly necessaryMake a website work, e.g. remember a choice you madeYes — only to remember your cookie choice
PreferencesRemember choices such as language or regionNo
AnalyticsCount visits and see how people use a websiteOnly if you accept
AdvertisingShow you targeted ads and track you across websitesNo

Tracking pixels or fingerprintingFollow you with invisible images or your device's settingsNo

Our fonts and images are served from our own website, and we don't use advertising pixels, or embedded videos and social media posts.

Your choice, and changing your mind

On your first visit, a small banner asks whether we can use analytics cookies. Accept and Decline are equally easy, and the website works exactly the same either way.

You can change your choice at any time with the “Cookie settings” link at the foot of every page, or here: . If you withdraw consent, Google Analytics stops straight away and we delete its cookies from your browser.

We ask again after a year, so your choice never goes stale.

What Google Analytics collects

If you accept, Google Analytics records, on our behalf:

  • which pages you view, and for how long;
  • how you arrived, e.g. from a search engine, a link or an advert;
  • your approximate location (country and city), worked out from your internet connection;
  • your type of device, browser, operating system and screen size.

We see this only as totals and trends, and don't use it to identify you. Google Analytics doesn't store your IP address, and we tell Google not to use the data for advertising or personalisation. The data is kept for at most 14 months.

Google processes this data for us as our service provider, and may do so in the United States or other countries. See how Google uses data from sites that use its services. You can also block Google Analytics on every website with Google's opt-out browser add-on.

When you send us a message or sign up

Sending our contact form or signing up for our newsletter doesn't set any cookies. The details you type are sent to us, and handled as our Privacy Policy describes.

Links to other websites

Our website links to WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Instagram and YouTube. Nothing from those services loads on our website. But when you click a link and go to one of them, that service may set its own cookies, under its own policy:

Email and phone links open your own email or phone app, and don't involve cookies.

Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Some browsers can send a “Do Not Track” or “Global Privacy Control” signal asking websites not to track you or sell your information. If yours does, we treat it as declining analytics: we don't show the banner and Google Analytics doesn't load, unless you choose to accept from “Cookie settings”. We never sell your information.

Managing cookies in your browser

The simplest way to control our cookies is “Cookie settings” above. Your browser also lets you see, block and delete cookies on any website:

If this changes

If we ever add other cookies or similar technologies, before we do we will:

  • update this page, listing each cookie with who sets it, what it's for and how long it lasts;
  • ask for your consent before using any cookie that isn't strictly necessary, with a clear choice where rejecting is as easy as accepting;
  • let you change your mind at any time.

We'll also change the “last updated” date at the top of this page.
