Cookie Policy

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files stored on a device when a visitor uses a website. Similar technologies may include local storage, pixels, tags, software-development kits and other tools that store or access information on a device.

Cookies can support essential website functions, remember preferences, measure performance and, where configured and permitted, support advertising or marketing activity.

2. Who We Are

3. Categories of Cookies

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These are required for core website functions such as security, page delivery, form operation, session management and remembering privacy choices. They do not normally require consent where they are genuinely necessary to provide a service requested by the visitor.

Preference Cookies

These remember choices such as language, region, display settings or other personalisation preferences. Where they are not strictly necessary, they should only be used after consent.

Analytics Cookies

These help us understand how visitors use the website, such as which pages are viewed, how visitors arrive and whether technical problems occur. Non-essential analytics cookies should only operate after the required consent has been obtained.

Marketing Cookies

These may be used to measure campaigns, build audiences or show more relevant advertising. They should not be activated unless the visitor has provided the required consent.

4. Cookies and Technologies Used on This Website

The live cookie inventory depends on the tools that are installed and active on the website. The table below describes the expected categories and common purposes.

5. Third-Party Services

Depending on the final website configuration, third-party services may set or read cookies or similar technologies. These may include:

• Website hosting, security and content-delivery providers.
• Analytics and website-performance services.
• Embedded video, map, calendar or scheduling providers.
• CRM, form, live-chat, voice-assistant or customer-communication tools.
• Social-media platforms and social links.
• Advertising and campaign-measurement services.

Third-party providers process information under their own privacy and cookie terms. Non-essential third-party tools should be blocked until the required consent has been recorded.

6. How Cookie Consent Works

When a visitor first arrives, the website should display a cookie banner or consent interface that clearly explains the available choices.

• Strictly necessary cookies may be active by default where legally permitted.
• Optional analytics, preference and marketing cookies should remain disabled until consent is given.
• Visitors should be able to accept or reject optional cookies without misleading design or unnecessary difficulty.
• Consent should be recorded and capable of being withdrawn as easily as it was given.
• Changing or withdrawing consent should not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

7. Managing Cookie Settings

Visitors can review or change their preferences through the Cookie Settings page or the cookie-preference control displayed on the website.

If the live consent-management platform provides a floating privacy icon or “Manage Preferences” link, that control should remain available throughout the website.

8. Browser and Device Controls

Most browsers allow users to view, block or delete cookies through browser settings. Blocking all cookies may affect website functionality, including forms, login areas, language settings or security features.

Browser controls operate separately from the website’s own consent system. Visitors may need to update both where they want to change all relevant settings.

9. Cookie Duration and Consent Records

Some cookies are deleted when the browser closes, while others remain for a defined period. Duration should be limited to what is necessary for the stated purpose.

Records of consent or refusal may be stored for a reasonable period to demonstrate compliance and avoid repeatedly requesting the same choice. Preferences should be requested again when legally required, when material changes are made or when the previous consent is no longer valid.

10. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when the website, consent platform, analytics configuration, embedded services or applicable legal requirements change. The latest version will be published on this page with the revised date shown above.
