2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites work, remember preferences, understand how visitors use pages, and improve site performance and security. 

We may also use similar technologies (such as pixels/tags/local storage) that perform similar functions to cookies.

3. Why We Use Cookies

Cookies may be used to:

• enable core website functionality and security;
• remember preferences (where applicable);
• understand how visitors interact with our Site so we can improve it;
• measure the effectiveness of communications and traffic sources (where analytics tools are used). 

4. Cookie Categories We Use

We categorise cookies in line with common UK guidance categories (similar to those used by large websites). 

Category 1 — Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the Site to function and cannot be switched off in our systems in most cases. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as navigating pages and accessing secure areas.

If you disable these cookies, some parts of the Site may not work properly. 

Category 2 — Performance / Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Site (for example, which pages are visited most often, or if users encounter error messages). This information is used to improve how the Site works.

Under UK rules, analytics cookies are generally not “strictly necessary” and typically require your consent before being set. 

Category 3 — Functionality Cookies

These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make (such as language, region, or other preferences) to provide enhanced, more personal features.

5. Consent and Cookie Controls

Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies (such as analytics and functionality cookies). Consent must be given by a clear positive action, and you should be able to accept or reject non-essential cookies. 

You can control cookies in several ways:

• Cookie banner / preferences tool (if enabled on the Site): adjust your choices at any time.
• Browser settings: you can block or delete cookies through your browser. Note that blocking cookies may affect Site functionality. 

6. How Long Cookies Last

• Session cookies: expire when you close your browser.
• Persistent cookies: remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.

The exact lifespan depends on the cookie’s purpose and settings.

7. Third-Party Cookies

Some pages may include features provided by third parties (for example, embedded media or analytics services). These third parties may set their own cookies or similar technologies. We do not control third-party cookies and recommend reviewing the relevant third party’s privacy/cookie information.

8. Updates to This Notice

We may update this “Use of Cookies” notice from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page and the “Last updated” date will be updated.
