Cookie policy.
This page explains what the site stores in your browser and how you can control it.
Updated 31 August 2026
The short answer
This site currently runs no audience tracking and no advertising tracking. The only thing we store in your browser is your own cookie choice, so the banner does not have to ask again on every visit.
The consent machinery is built and ready for measurement to be switched on later. When that happens, nothing will load until you have given consent.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file a site stores in your browser. Some are necessary for the site to work; others collect information about how it is used. Local storage and session storage do a similar job, and this policy covers them in the same way.
What we store today
A single entry in your browser’s local storage:
- li-consent — your cookie choice and when you made it. Kept for 12 months or until you clear your browser data. Strictly necessary, because without it we cannot honour your choice.
Categories
If we enable measurement, cookies will fall into these categories and you can accept them separately:
- Strictly necessary — site function, security and remembering your cookie choice. These cannot be switched off.
- Analytics — how the site is used, so we can improve it. For example Google Analytics.
- Marketing — advertising targeting and measurement. For example Google Ads.
Consent Mode v2
We use Google Consent Mode v2. In practice that means every consent-gated signal is denied by default before any script on the page has had a chance to load: ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization and analytics_storage.
When you make your choice in the banner, that state is updated to match. If you decline, Google’s tools set no cookies and read none, and any collection is limited to cookieless, non-identifying signals.
Changing your choice
There is a Cookie settings button in the footer that reopens the banner. Your choice takes effect immediately.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some parts of the site may then behave unexpectedly.
