What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help deliver essential functionality, improve performance, and remember your preferences.

Some cookies can be used to identify your device or browser, and a cookie identifier can count as personal data under UK GDPR. We keep this to a minimum — we don’t use cookies for advertising, for tracking you across other sites, or to build a profile of you.

How We Use Cookies

We do not use cookies for advertising, behavioural tracking, or social profiling. Here’s every cookie (and similar storage) this site sets:

Name	Provider	Purpose	Duration	Category
`_ga`	Google Analytics	Distinguishes unique visitors for aggregated usage statistics	2 years (GA4 default)	Analytics — needs consent
`_ga_5E1NFBZH51`	Google Analytics	Persists session state for GA4 reporting	2 years (GA4 default)	Analytics — needs consent
`__cf_bm`	Cloudflare (Turnstile)	Bot management — tells human visitors apart from automated abuse on our forms	30 minutes	Strictly necessary
`cf_clearance`	Cloudflare (Turnstile)	Confirms a visitor has passed a security challenge	Up to 1 day	Strictly necessary
`cookieConsent`	Smaoin (browser localStorage, not a cookie)	Remembers your cookie choice so we don’t ask every visit	Until you change it (declined choices reset after 180 days)	Strictly necessary

Turnstile’s cookies are strictly necessary to keep our contact forms free of spam and don’t require your consent — they’re governed by Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy. Google Analytics only loads after you accept.

Managing Cookies

Changed your mind since you last chose? You can revisit your cookie choice at any time:

You can also disable or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Most browsers allow cookie control on a per-site basis. Disabling cookies may impact site features or performance.

Under UK GDPR, you can access or request removal of any personal data we may collect. However, we do not store identifiable data unless you submit it — for example, via a contact form. See our Privacy Policy for how to make that request.
