Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit — such as your language preference or whether you have accepted certain consent notices — which can make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you.

Cookies are not programs; they cannot install software or access files on your device. They simply store a small amount of text that the website can read when you return.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to:

• Ensure the website functions correctly for all visitors
• Understand how people navigate and use our content, in aggregate
• Remember your cookie preferences across visits
• Support any advertising or outreach efforts where you have given consent

We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal information or to track you across unrelated third-party websites.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These are necessary for the website to function. They cannot be disabled because they enable core features such as page navigation and security. They do not store any personally identifiable information.

• Session management — maintains your session state as you move between pages
• Cookie consent storage — remembers the preferences you set in this policy page
• Security tokens — protects against cross-site request issues

Analytics Cookies

These optional cookies help us understand which pages are visited most, how visitors move through the site, and where improvements might be helpful. The data is aggregated and does not identify individual users.

• Google Analytics — tracks page views, session duration, and referral sources
• Data is pseudonymised and retained for up to 14 months

Marketing Cookies

These optional cookies are used to understand the effectiveness of our outreach and any advertising we may run. They may be placed by third-party platforms whose services we use.

• Google Ads conversion tracking — measures whether a visit resulted in a contact form submission
• Meta Pixel — supports advertising performance measurement on Meta platforms
• Microsoft Clarity / Bing Ads — supports performance measurement on Microsoft platforms

Preference Cookies

These optional cookies remember choices you make — such as your region or preferred language — to personalise your experience on return visits.

• Language or regional settings
• Display preferences you may have selected

4. Cookie Duration

Cookies fall into two categories by duration:

• Session cookies — exist only while your browser is open and are deleted when you close it
• Persistent cookies — remain on your device for a set period. Our persistent cookies typically expire between 30 days and 24 months, depending on their purpose

5. Third-Party Cookies

Where we use third-party tools such as Google Analytics or advertising platforms, those third parties may place their own cookies on your device when you visit our site. We do not control these cookies directly. We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie policies of relevant third parties:

• Google Privacy Policy
• Meta Privacy Policy
• Microsoft Privacy Statement

6. Your Cookie Preferences

You can choose which optional cookie categories to allow. Essential cookies are always active as they are needed for the site to work. Changes take effect immediately and are saved for your next visit.
