1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, enhance user experience, enable functionality, and support analytics or advertising efforts. Some cookies are set directly by us (first-party), while others are set by third-party services we use (third-party).
2. Types of Cookies We Use
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for core website functions such as page navigation, form submission, and cookie consent logic. These cannot be disabled.
- Analytics & Performance Cookies: Used to collect anonymized data about how visitors use our site. This helps us analyze usage patterns and improve content and functionality. We use Google Analytics for this purpose, only after you provide explicit consent.
- Marketing & Tracking Cookies: Used to deliver personalized advertisements and track the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. Meta Pixel is an example. These are loaded only after you provide consent.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
Under Article 6(1) of the UK GDPR and EU GDPR, our legal bases are:
- Consent – for all non-essential cookies, including analytics and marketing.
- Legitimate Interest / Contractual Necessity – for strictly necessary cookies essential for site functionality.
4. How We Obtain and Use Consent
When you first visit our site, a cookie banner is shown. We do not activate non-essential cookies until you click "Accept." You can later withdraw or change your consent by clearing your browser cookies or using the "Cookie Preferences" option in the footer.
5. Third-Party Cookies & Data Transfers
We may allow third-party providers such as Google and Meta to place cookies for analytics and marketing purposes. These services may process your data outside the UK or European Economic Area (EEA), in countries that may not offer the same level of data protection.
In such cases, we implement appropriate legal safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission and/or UK Information Commissioner's Office to ensure your data remains protected in accordance with GDPR standards.
6. Cookie Duration
Some cookies are session-based and expire once you close your browser. Others remain on your device for a specified duration (e.g. 30 days, 6 months, or 1 year) depending on their purpose. You can view individual cookie lifespans using your browser's developer tools.
