Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, tablet or mobile) when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the site owner about how the site is being used.

Some cookies are set by us (first-party cookies), and some are set by third-party services that appear on our pages (third-party cookies).

We use cookies to:

1. Make our website function properly and securely.
2. Remember choices you make (such as form data while you’re filling in an enquiry).
3. Understand how visitors use the site so we can improve content, navigation and performance.
4. Measure the effectiveness of our marketing and the pages people arrive on.

The cookies on our website fall into the following broad categories:

1. Strictly necessary cookies. Required for the website to function — for example, keeping the site secure, remembering whether you’ve accepted this cookie notice, and enabling our contact form. These cannot be switched off.
2. Performance & analytics cookies. Help us understand how visitors use the site (which pages are visited, how long is spent on each, where errors occur). We use this information to improve the experience. These are typically set by services such as Google Analytics.
3. Functional cookies. Allow the site to remember choices you make and provide enhanced features (e.g. video embeds from YouTube/Vimeo, embedded maps, or chat widgets).
4. Marketing cookies. Used by us or third parties (e.g. Meta/Facebook, Google Ads) to measure the performance of marketing campaigns and, where applicable, to show you relevant ads on other websites.

Some pages may load content or functionality from third parties (for example: Google Analytics, Google Fonts, YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook/Meta, Instagram, LinkedIn). These services may set their own cookies and process limited data about your visit in line with their own privacy and cookie policies.

You can control and/or delete cookies as you wish. You can delete all cookies that are already on your device and you can set most browsers to prevent them from being placed. If you do this, however, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit a site, and some services and functionality may not work.

Most modern browsers let you manage cookies via their settings. You can find guidance for the major browsers here:

1. Google Chrome
2. Mozilla Firefox
3. Apple Safari
4. Microsoft Edge

For more general information about cookies and how to manage them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org or the ICO’s guidance.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. The “last updated” date at the top of this page will always show when it was last revised.
