1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They let a site remember your actions and preferences over time — such as your language choice — and help the site function, stay secure, and measure how it is used. We also use similar technologies (such as local storage) for the same purposes; where we say "cookies" in this policy, we mean all of them.
2. Categories we use
We keep our use of cookies deliberately minimal. We use three categories:
Always on
Strictly necessary
Required for the website to function — for example, to keep the site secure, to route requests, and to remember choices you make within a single session. These cannot be switched off, as the site cannot work properly without them, and they do not require consent.
Always on
Preferences (including the language switcher)
Remember choices you make to give you a better experience — most notably the cookie that stores the language you select in the language switcher, so the site loads in your chosen language on your next visit.
Optional
Analytics
Help us understand how visitors use the site — which pages are viewed and how people navigate — so we can improve it. Analytics data is used in aggregate. Where required by law, these are set only with your consent and can be declined without affecting core functionality.
3. Consent
Strictly necessary and essential preference cookies are set because they are required to deliver the service you have requested. Where local law requires consent for non-essential cookies — such as analytics — we ask for that consent before setting them, and you can withdraw it at any time. Managing your cookie choices does not affect your ability to use the core parts of the site.
How we treat data from cookies is covered in our
Privacy Policy, which explains the lawful basis for processing, your rights, and how to contact us.
4. How to control cookies
You have several ways to control cookies:
- Browser settings — most browsers let you view, block, or delete cookies. Check your browser's help pages for instructions.
- Decline analytics — where a consent prompt is shown, you can decline non-essential cookies while keeping the site fully usable.
- Reset preferences — clearing your browser's cookies and storage will remove saved preferences, including your language choice, which will revert to the default until you set it again.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site from working as intended.
