Cookie Policy

This page explains what cookies are, which ones this website uses, and how you can manage them. We have kept it short and plain.

Last reviewed: January 2025

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work properly and to help website owners understand how people use their sites.

Cookies do not run programs or carry viruses. They simply store small pieces of information — for example, whether you have visited a site before or which language you prefer.

Cookies we use

We use two categories of cookie on this website: strictly necessary cookies and, if you consent, analytics cookies.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are needed for the website to function. They do not collect information about you for marketing purposes and cannot be switched off without affecting site functionality.

Name	Purpose	Duration
sw_cookie_consent	Stores your cookie preference (accepted or declined) so the consent banner does not appear on every page visit.	12 months (localStorage)

Analytics cookies

If you accept cookies, we use an analytics tool to understand how visitors use the website — which pages are visited, how long people stay, and how they arrive at the site. This helps us improve the site over time.

Analytics data is aggregated. It does not identify you personally and is not shared with advertising platforms.

Name	Purpose	Duration
_ga	Google Analytics — distinguishes unique visitors. Used to compile aggregated statistics about site usage.	2 years
_ga_*	Google Analytics — stores and counts page visits for session-level statistics.	2 years
_gid	Google Analytics — distinguishes users for a single browsing session.	24 hours

Analytics cookies are only set if you accept cookies when the consent banner appears. If you decline, only the strictly necessary consent-preference cookie is stored.

Third-party content

The home page includes an embedded Google Maps frame to help you find our office. When that frame loads, Google may set its own cookies on your device. We do not control those cookies. You can read Google's privacy practices on their own website.

We do not embed social media buttons or third-party advertising on this website.

Managing your preferences

You can change your cookie preference at any time through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

See what cookies are stored and delete individual ones
Block cookies from specific websites
Block all cookies
Delete all cookies when you close the browser

Note that blocking all cookies will prevent many websites from working as expected. If you clear all cookies, the consent preference stored by this site will be removed and the banner will appear again on your next visit.

Browser settings guidance

For guidance on managing cookies in your browser, search for "cookie settings" in the help section of your browser. The process differs between Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and other browsers, and browser interfaces change over time — so current guidance from the browser's own help pages is more reliable than instructions we could publish here.

Updates to this policy

If we add new cookies or change how we use existing ones, we will update this page. The review date at the top of the page reflects when the content was last checked.
