Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, tags, software development kits, and scripts that help a website remember information or understand how people use it. In this policy we use “cookies” to refer to all of these technologies.

Every visitor, in every country, is treated the same way: only strictly necessary cookies are used until you tell us otherwise. Analytics, preference, and marketing cookies are switched off by default and are only enabled after you give explicit, informed, freely given consent through our cookie banner.

Rejecting non-essential cookies is exactly as easy as accepting them, no consent is pre-ticked, and continuing to browse is never treated as consent. This meets the requirements of the EU ePrivacy Directive and GDPR, the UK GDPR and PECR, Brazil's LGPD, Canada's PIPEDA, and comparable laws elsewhere, and it satisfies US state opt-out laws by default.

The table below sets out each category, why it exists, and how long the data is kept.

Some pages may include third-party content such as embedded video, social posts, widgets, or media from other services. Those providers can set their own cookies once their content loads and process data under their own privacy policies. We do not control those cookies. Where such content is not essential to the page, we only load it after you have consented to the matching category.

You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using the “Cookie preferences” link in the site footer, or the button on this page. Withdrawing consent is as simple as giving it, and takes effect immediately for future page loads.

You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and most browsers let you block cookies entirely or clear those already stored. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of the site to stop working. Your consent record is stored on your own device, so clearing your browser data will make the banner appear again.

Because we set no non-essential cookies without opt-in consent, visitors sending a Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal are already covered: nothing beyond strictly necessary cookies runs unless that visitor actively chooses to enable it.

If we add new cookies or change how existing ones are used, we will update this page and, where the change is material, ask for your consent again. The effective date at the top of the page shows when this policy was last revised.
