What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. They help the site function, remember preferences, and improve performance.
How we use cookies
- Strictly Necessary — required for core features (security, page navigation, consent settings).
- Performance/Analytics — anonymous usage stats to improve pages and navigation.
- Functionality — remember choices (e.g., area filters, view preferences).
- Marketing (limited) — only if enabled; may measure page reach of campaigns.
Your choices & consent
- On first visit, you’ll see a cookie banner to accept, reject non-essential, or customise.
- You can change preferences anytime via the Cookie Settings link in the footer.
- You can also clear cookies in your browser settings.
Third-party cookies
Some analytics or embedded services may set their own cookies. We aim to keep third-party use minimal and privacy-respecting.
Retention
Cookie lifespans vary. Essential cookies may persist to remember your consent; analytics/marketing cookies typically have shorter lifetimes (e.g., days to months).
