1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit, such as your language preference or cookie consent choice.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They include the cookie that stores your consent preferences (cookieConsent, stored in localStorage).
Analytics
If you consent, we use Google Analytics to collect anonymised data about how visitors use our site (pages visited, time on site, traffic source). This helps us improve the website.
Marketing
If you consent, we use Google Ads conversion tracking and remarketing cookies. These allow us to measure the effectiveness of our advertising and, where applicable, show relevant ads to visitors who have previously visited our site.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Google Analytics sets cookies including _ga (2 years), _gid (24 hours) and _gat (1 minute) to collect anonymised usage data. Google Ads sets _gcl_au and _gcl_aw to measure ad conversions. These cookies are only placed if you consent to analytics or marketing cookies respectively. We implement Google Consent Mode v2, which means that by default all ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization and analytics_storage signals are set to "denied" until you give explicit consent.
Our Contact page embeds a Google Maps iframe. When you view this page, Google may set its own cookies. Please refer to Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com for details.
4. Managing Your Preferences
When you first visit our site, a cookie consent banner is displayed. You can accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences using the "Cookie Settings" option. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the cookie settings link in the footer or by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site.
