What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit our website. They help us provide you with a better browsing experience by remembering your preferences, understanding how you use our site, and enabling certain functionalities. Cookies are widely used across the internet and are essential for many website features.
Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several important purposes: to ensure our website functions properly, to understand how visitors interact with our site, to remember your preferences and settings, to improve our services based on usage patterns, and to provide relevant advertising and marketing content. Cookies help us deliver a personalised and efficient user experience whilst maintaining the security and functionality of our website.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use different categories of cookies, each serving specific purposes:
Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for our website to function properly and cannot be disabled. They enable basic features like page navigation, access to secure areas, and form submissions. Necessary cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and are automatically activated when you visit our site.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. We use Google Analytics to gather insights about page views, user journeys, and website performance. This information helps us improve our site structure and content to better serve our visitors.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation. They remember your preferences, language settings, and other choices you make whilst browsing our site. These cookies help provide a more personalised experience and may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use.
Marketing and Advertising Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites and deliver relevant advertising content. We use Google Ads and other advertising platforms to show you relevant advertisements based on your interests and browsing behaviour. These cookies help us measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and provide more targeted marketing content.
Cookie Details
Below is a detailed list of the cookies we use on our website:
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. We use the following third-party services that may set cookies:
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to analyse website traffic and user behaviour. Google Analytics sets cookies to collect information about how you use our website, including pages visited, time spent on the site, and traffic sources. This information is used to compile reports and help us improve our website. Google Analytics data is anonymised and aggregated.
Google Ads
We use Google Ads for advertising and remarketing purposes. Google Ads cookies track conversions, measure ad performance, and enable us to show relevant advertisements to users who have previously visited our website. These cookies help us understand which advertising campaigns are most effective.
Google Fonts
Our website uses Google Fonts to display text with custom typography. When you visit our site, Google may set cookies to optimise font loading and ensure consistent display across different devices and browsers.
Google Consent Mode v2
We implement Google Consent Mode v2 to ensure that your cookie preferences are respected across all Google services. This technology allows us to adjust how Google Analytics and Google Ads behave based on your consent choices. When you opt out of analytics or marketing cookies, Google Consent Mode ensures that these services operate in a privacy-focused manner whilst still providing basic functionality.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for managing cookies on our website:
Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit our website, you'll see a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences. You can access these settings at any time by clicking the cookie preferences link in our website footer.
Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:
- Block all cookies
- Block third-party cookies
- Delete cookies when you close your browser
- Set your browser to ask for permission before accepting cookies

Opting Out of Third-Party Cookies
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. For Google Ads, you can adjust your ad settings through your Google Account or visit the Google Ads Settings page to control personalised advertising.
Impact of Disabling Cookies
If you choose to disable cookies, some features of our website may not function properly. Necessary cookies are required for basic website functionality, whilst disabling analytics cookies will prevent us from understanding how our website is used. Disabling marketing cookies will stop personalised advertising but may result in less relevant ads being displayed to you.

When we make significant changes, we will notify you through our website and update the "last updated" date at the top of this policy.
