Cookie Policy

Last updated: 29 July 2026

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies may include local storage, pixels, tags or scripts. They can be used to make a website work, improve security, remember preferences, measure use or support advertising.

2. Cookies currently used

This website is currently intended to use only cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for its basic operation, security, network management and administration. These may include:

• WordPress administration cookies: used when an authorised administrator signs in to manage the website.
• Security and hosting cookies or server records: used by WordPress, GoDaddy or associated security and performance services to protect the website, manage traffic and prevent misuse.
• Cookie-consent preference cookies: if Complianz is active, it may store your cookie choices so the website remembers them.

Essential cookies are required for the website or a requested service to operate and cannot normally be switched off through a consent banner. You can still configure your browser to block them, but parts of the website may not work correctly.

3. Optional cookies

We do not currently intend to use advertising, behavioural tracking or optional analytics cookies. If tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, embedded marketing services or similar technologies are added later, they must not be activated for visitors until the appropriate consent mechanism and policy information are in place.

4. Complianz

The Complianz plugin may be used to identify services and manage cookie preferences. Where a cookie banner is displayed, you should be able to accept, reject or manage optional cookies. Essential cookies may remain active because they are necessary for website operation or security.

5. Third-party content

If third-party content is added in the future, such as embedded maps, videos, social-media feeds or external forms, those providers may set their own cookies or collect device information. This policy and the website's consent settings should be updated before such content is enabled where consent is required.

6. Managing cookies

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete them, block all or selected cookies, and receive a warning before cookies are placed. Blocking essential cookies may affect website functionality.

If a cookie banner is displayed, you can also use its settings or preference button to review or change your choices.

7. Cookie duration and details

The exact names and duration of technical cookies can vary according to WordPress, the hosting environment, security services and the Complianz configuration. The Complianz cookie scan should be run after launch and whenever plugins or third-party services are added so the live cookie list remains accurate.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when the website, plugins or third-party services change. The latest version will be published on this page.

Important: This policy reflects the site's current simple setup. Run the Complianz scan after installation and update the policy if analytics, advertising, embedded media, online forms or other non-essential technologies are introduced.
