1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, mobile phone) when you visit certain websites. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.
Cookies help us recognise your device and remember information about your visit, like your preferences, settings, and how you use our website. This policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several purposes, primarily:
- To ensure our website functions correctly (Essential Cookies).
- To analyse how our visitors use the website and monitor website performance (Analytics Cookies).
Below is a more detailed explanation of the types of cookies we may use:
Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website, you cannot refuse them without impacting how our site functions. They typically include:
- Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that expire once you close your browser.
- Security Cookies: Help identify and prevent security risks.
- Cookie Consent Cookie: Remembers your cookie preferences (e.g., the `cookie_consent` cookie itself).
Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect information about how you use our website, like which pages you visited and which links you clicked on. None of this information can be used to identify you. It is all aggregated and, therefore, anonymized. Their sole purpose is to improve website functions. This includes cookies from third-party analytics services as long as the cookies are for the exclusive use of the owner of the website visited.
We currently use:
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand website traffic and usage patterns. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymous information. You can learn more about Google's practices at Google Privacy Policy and opt-out by using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. (Note: We only enable Google Analytics if you accept cookies via our banner).
3. Managing Cookies
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies (other than essential cookies).
3.1 Our Cookie Banner
When you first visit our site, you will see a cookie banner allowing you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. Your preference is stored in the `cookie_consent` cookie.
3.2 Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow some control of most cookies through the browser settings. You can set your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, some parts of our website may not function properly.

To find information relating to other browsers, visit the browser developer's website.
To opt out of being tracked by Google Analytics across all websites, visit http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Besides the Google Analytics cookies mentioned above (which are only activated with consent), we do not currently intentionally set other third-party cookies directly through our website code. However, embedded content from third parties (e.g., embedded videos or social media widgets, if used in the future) might set their own cookies.
We recommend reviewing the cookie policies of any third-party services linked from or embedded in our site.
5. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes, for example, to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
