2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files or pieces of information that websites may store on your device when you visit them. Cookies and similar technologies can be used to:

• operate websites;
• provide security;
• remember preferences;
• prevent misuse;
• measure website performance;
• understand how visitors use a website.

3. How we use cookies and similar technologies

We may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes.

Strictly necessary technologies

These technologies are required for essential website functions or security. They may be used to:

• protect the website and enquiry form against automated abuse;
• maintain website security;
• prevent fraud or spam;
• remember privacy or cookie preferences where necessary;
• deliver technical website functionality.

Where a technology is strictly necessary to provide a service requested by the visitor or to perform essential technical functions, consent may not be required.

Analytics technologies

With your consent, we may use analytics technologies to understand how visitors interact with our website. We use or may use Google Analytics 4 (GA4). Analytics information may include:

• pages viewed;
• approximate geographic location;
• device and browser type;
• how visitors arrived at the website;
• interactions with website features;
• navigation through the website;
• events such as enquiry-form interactions.

We use this information to understand website performance and improve our services and marketing. Analytics technologies are not treated as strictly necessary and are not activated until the appropriate consent has been obtained.

Security and anti-spam technologies

Our enquiry form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to help distinguish genuine visitors from automated or abusive traffic. Turnstile may process technical information necessary to perform its security checks.

We also use server-side security measures such as validation, rate limiting, honeypot fields and spam detection.

4. Services currently used on our website

The exact technologies used may change as our website or third-party services are updated. Our website currently uses or may use the following services.

Cloudflare Turnstile

Provider: Cloudflare. Purpose: website security, bot detection and spam prevention. Where Turnstile is used solely for necessary website security, it may fall within the strictly necessary category.

Google Analytics 4

Provider: Google. Purpose: website analytics and measurement. Category: analytics. Analytics technologies are only activated after the appropriate consent has been provided.

Vercel

Provider: Vercel. Purpose: website hosting, delivery, infrastructure and technical operation. Vercel may process limited technical information necessary to operate, secure and deliver the website.

5. Your cookie choices

When you first visit our website, you are presented with a cookie consent mechanism. Where applicable, you are able to:

• accept optional cookies;
• reject optional cookies;
• choose which categories of optional cookies you allow.

Rejecting optional cookies does not prevent you from accessing the essential parts of the website. Strictly necessary cookies or technologies may operate without consent where they are genuinely required to provide a requested service or maintain essential security.

6. Consent for analytics

We do not activate non-essential analytics technologies until the appropriate consent has been provided. Simply continuing to browse the website is not treated as consent to optional cookies. Where consent is required, it must be given through a clear positive action.

7. Changing or withdrawing your consent

You can change or withdraw your consent to optional cookies at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the footer of every page. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings, which generally allow you to:

• delete cookies;
• block cookies;
• allow cookies;
• block third-party cookies;
• clear cookies when your browser closes.

Blocking technologies that are genuinely necessary for website functionality or security may affect how the website operates.

8. Cookie duration

Cookies may be:

• session cookies, which generally expire when you close your browser; or
• persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until deleted.

The exact duration depends on the particular cookie or technology being used. Where applicable, our cookie settings mechanism provides further information about individual optional cookies and their duration.

9. Third-party providers

Some website technologies are provided by third parties. These providers may process information in accordance with their own privacy policies and terms. Relevant providers may include:

• Cloudflare;
• Google;
• Vercel.

You may wish to review the privacy information published by those providers for further information about how they process data.

10. Changes to the cookies we use

The cookies and similar technologies used by our website may change over time. We will review our use of cookies periodically and update this policy where appropriate, particularly if:

• new analytics or advertising technologies are introduced;
• new third-party services are added;
• existing services are removed;
• the purposes for which cookies are used change;
• legal or regulatory requirements change.

11. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The current version will be published on our website and the date at the top of this policy will show when it was last updated.
