COOKIE POLICY

What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or device when you visit our website. They help our site function properly, remember your preferences, and allow us to understand how visitors use our services.

How we use cookies
This website uses CookieYes as our cookie consent management tool. On your first visit, you will be shown a banner allowing you to accept or reject non-essential cookies before they are set. This complies with UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), which require your explicit, informed consent before non-essential cookies are placed on your device.

You can change or withdraw your cookie consent at any time via the “Cookie Preferences” link, typically found in the website footer, which reopens the CookieYes preference centre.

Strictly necessary / essential cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function correctly — for example, remembering your cookie consent choices, enabling secure areas of the site, or supporting core navigation. They do not require consent, as they are essential to delivering the service you’ve requested, but we disclose them here for transparency.

Functional cookies
These cookies remember your choices and preferences to provide a more personalised experience — for example, information entered into enquiry or contact forms, or preferences set when using our live chat facility. These cookies require your consent and will not be set unless you opt in via the CookieYes banner.

Analytics / performance cookies
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website, including which pages are visited and how users navigate the site, so we can improve it over time. This information is collected in an anonymous or pseudonymous form and does not directly identify you. You can read Google’s privacy policy for more information: https://policies.google.com/privacy. These cookies require your consent and will not be set unless you opt in via the CookieYes banner.

Managing your cookie consent
Because we use CookieYes, non-essential cookies (functional and analytics) are automatically blocked until you provide consent. You can:

• Accept or reject cookies by category on your first visit
• Change your preferences at any time via the “Cookie Preferences” link in the site footer
• Withdraw consent at any time, which stops non-essential cookies from being set on future visits

A record of your consent choice is stored so that we can demonstrate compliance if required.

Managing cookies in your browser
You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of parts of this website. Guidance on managing cookies in popular browsers is available at: https://www.aboutcookies.org.
