Cookie policy
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. This policy explains which ones we use and why.
Last updated 1 September 2026
1. Strictly necessary cookies
These keep the site secure and working — for example remembering your form progress and protecting against cross-site request forgery. They do not require consent because the site cannot function without them. They expire when you close your browser or shortly afterwards.
2. Analytics cookies
With your consent, we use aggregated analytics to understand how many people visit, which pages they read and where they arrived from. These cookies do not identify you personally and typically expire within 24 months. If you decline, we do not set them.
3. Marketing cookies
With your consent, we use the Meta Pixel provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited to measure how our advertising performs. It sets cookies such as _fbp (which distinguishes visitors, typically kept for 90 days) and _fbc (which records the advert you arrived from, typically kept for 90 days). These cookies are only set after you accept advertising cookies, and they are never set for visitors in regions that require consent who have not accepted. See section 4 of our privacy policy for what is shared with Meta and why.
4. Managing cookies
You can change your advertising-cookie choice at any time using the cookie settings link in the footer of every page — your updated choice applies immediately. You can also accept, refuse or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site, including our enquiry form, from working. Guidance for each major browser is available in its help pages, and general information can be found at ico.org.uk.
