1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local and session storage, work in a comparable way. In this policy, “cookies” covers all of them.
Fonts, images and video on this website are served from its own server, so loading the site does not by itself send your data to third parties.
2. Categories used
- Essential — needed for the website to work, such as remembering your cookie choice. These do not require consent and cannot be switched off.
- Analytics — help me understand how visitors use the website, using aggregated statistics. Used only with your consent.
- Advertising — used by Google Ads to measure whether advertisements lead to enquiries, and to show relevant ads. Used only with your consent.

Google tags may still send limited, cookieless signals (for example, that a page was loaded), which do not contain cookie identifiers and are used by Google only in aggregated form to model overall campaign performance.
5. Managing your choice

You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking essential storage means the cookie banner will appear on each visit.
