YOUR CHOICES • YOUR PRIVACY

COOKIES, CLEARLY EXPLAINED

A plain-English guide to the small data files this website may use, why they matter and how you stay in control.

Last updated August 2026

THREE SIMPLE CATEGORIES

NOT EVERY COOKIE DOES THE SAME JOB

We separate essential website functions from optional features so the difference is easy to understand.

ESSENTIAL

Needed for core website operation, security and features you actively request. These cannot usually be switched off through our site.

ALWAYS ACTIVE

PREFERENCES

May remember choices such as consent settings so you do not have to repeat them on every visit.

CHOICE-BASED

ANALYTICS

May be used, where enabled and consented to, to understand aggregated website usage and improve the visitor experience.

CONSENT REQUIRED

YOU ARE IN THE DRIVING SEAT

CONTROL COOKIES IN YOUR BROWSER

Most browsers let you view, delete or block cookies. Blocking every cookie can affect website functions, while deleting them may reset saved preferences.

If a consent banner is available, use it to change optional-cookie choices at any time.

FIND THE SETTING

The exact wording varies, but it is normally under Privacy, Security or Site Settings.

Browser menu → Settings → Privacy & security → Cookies / Site data

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

Embedded maps, videos, messaging tools or analytics providers may set their own cookies if those features are enabled. Their privacy information governs those cookies.

HOW LONG THEY LAST

Session cookies normally expire when the browser closes. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until you remove them.

POLICY UPDATES

We may update this notice when the website, providers or legal requirements change. The date at the top shows the latest revision.
