Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit a website.

Cookies help websites work properly, remember your preferences, improve your browsing experience, and provide information to website owners about how visitors use the site.

Cookies may be set directly by our website, known as first-party cookies, or by third-party services we use, known as third-party cookies.

The ICO describes cookies as small text files placed on a device by websites, commonly used to make websites work, improve efficiency and provide information to website owners.

3. How we use cookies

We may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

to make the website work properly;
to keep the website secure;
to remember cookie preferences;
to allow contact forms to work correctly;
to display embedded content, such as Google Maps;
to understand how visitors use the website;

to measure the effectiveness of marketing and paid advertising campaigns, where relevant.

We only use non-essential cookies where we have your consent, unless the law allows otherwise.

4. Types of cookies we may use

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function. They may support basic features such as page loading, security, spam protection, form submission and cookie consent preferences.

These cookies cannot usually be switched off through our website because the site may not work properly without them.

Examples may include:

WordPress session or security cookies;
cookie banner preference cookies;
form submission security cookies;
website firewall or anti-spam cookies.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies help improve the user experience. For example, they may remember choices you make on the website or help embedded features work correctly.

These may include cookies connected with embedded tools, display preferences or third-party functionality.

Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website. For example, they may tell us which pages are visited most often, how users move around the site, how long people spend on a page, and whether visitors encounter errors.

This information helps us improve the website and make our services easier to find.

We may use tools such as:

Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager  

Analytics cookies are not essential for the website to work, so they should only be used where you have given consent. The ICO’s guidance explains that valid consent must be freely given, specific, informed and involve a clear positive action.

Marketing and advertising cookies

Marketing cookies may be used to measure or improve paid advertising campaigns. For example, they may help us understand whether someone contacted us after clicking a Google Ad or another online advert.

We may use tools such as:

Google Ads conversion tracking
Meta Pixel 
Google Tag Manager

Marketing and advertising cookies are not essential and should only be used where you have given consent.

Third-party embedded content cookies

Some pages on our website may include embedded third-party content, such as Google Maps.

When embedded content loads, the third-party provider may collect information about your device, browser, IP address and interaction with the embedded content. Google’s Maps Platform terms require users of Google Maps services to comply with applicable privacy laws and have an appropriate privacy policy where relevant.

Where possible, we recommend that embedded Google Maps content is blocked until the visitor has accepted the relevant cookie category. This helps avoid loading third-party scripts or cookies before consent has been given.
