Cookie Policy (UK)

We use Google Analytics 4, configured through Google Site Kit, to understand visits and improve this website.

Google Analytics is provided by Google. Our Statistics cookie preference controls analytics cookie storage through Google Consent Mode. When analytics storage is denied, Google tags may still send limited cookieless signals for measurement and modelling. Declining analytics cookies therefore does not necessarily stop every request to Google.

These are Google’s published default lifetimes; browser limits can shorten them. Cookie expiry is separate from the retention of information already collected.

You can change or withdraw your choices using Manage consent on this website. This affects future cookie use. Read our Privacy Notice, the Google Privacy Policy and Google’s cookie information for more details.
