2. How we use them
Necessary
Required for the website to function and to remember your cookie choices. These do not need consent. Your consent settings themselves are stored in your browser’s local storage under the key cookie-consent-settings, with a timestamp of when you made your choice.
Analytics
Help us understand how visitors use the site — which pages are viewed, for how long and from which devices. We use Google Analytics 4, Plausible Analytics and PostHog (see the table for how each is loaded).
Advertising
Let us measure whether our advertising on Google and Microsoft (Bing) leads to enquiries, and attribute conversions to the right campaign. We use Google Ads conversion tracking and Microsoft Advertising (UET). When you submit a form with advertising consent granted, your email address, phone number and name are hashed (SHA-256) in your browser before being sent to Google and Microsoft for “enhanced conversion” matching; the readable values are never sent to them.
3. Cookies and similar technologies we use
Durations are set by each provider and can change; where a duration is not fixed by us we link to the provider’s own documentation.

Fonts are served from our own domain, and images are delivered through Cloudinary’s content delivery network; neither sets cookies for tracking.
4. Change your cookie settings
You can change your analytics and advertising choices at any time. Necessary storage cannot be switched off because the site would not work without it.
Withdrawing consent stops the relevant tools from running from that point on; it does not delete data already collected by the provider, which is governed by their policy.
5. Browser controls
You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Instructions are published by each browser: Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge. Blocking necessary storage may stop parts of the site from working.
