1. What this policy explains
1.1. This cookie policy explains how we use cookies, pixels, tags and similar technologies on our website.
1.2. These technologies may store information on your device or access information already stored on your device.
1.3. Under UK PECR rules, we must tell users what storage and access technologies we use, what they do, who receives the information and how long the information is stored or accessed. For non-exempt cookies and similar technologies, we must obtain prior UK GDPR-standard consent.
2. What cookies and similar technologies are
2.1. Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website.
2.2. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, session storage, device identifiers and other tools that store information on your device or access information from it.
2.3. PECR applies to cookies and similar technologies, including tracking pixels, scripts, tags, local storage, link decoration, navigational tracking and device fingerprinting.
3. How we use cookies
3.1. We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
3.1.1. to make the website work properly;
3.1.2. to keep the website secure;
3.1.3. to remember your cookie choices;
3.1.4. to understand how people use the website;
3.1.5. to measure the performance of our advertising campaigns;
3.1.6. to show or support relevant online advertising, where enabled.
3.2. We do not use analytics, advertising, retargeting or campaign-tracking cookies unless you have given consent, except where a lawful PECR exception applies.
3.3. The DUAA introduced additional low-risk exceptions for some storage and access technologies, including a statistical purposes exception. However, that exception is narrow. It applies only where the sole purpose is aggregate statistical information about how the website or service is used, with a view to improving it, and users are given clear information and a simple free way to object. It does not apply to online advertising.
4. Types of cookies we use
| Cookie type | Purpose | Consent required? |
| Strictly necessary cookies | Make the website function, maintain security, remember cookie preferences, support forms or page navigation | No |
| Analytics cookies | Help us understand website visits, page views, user journeys and website performance | Yes, unless configured to meet the narrow statistical purposes exception |
| Advertising cookies and pixels | Measure advertising campaigns, support retargeting, limit ad repetition, attribute enquiries or sales to campaigns, build or use advertising audiences | Yes |
| Third-party cookies, pixels and tags | Allow third-party services such as analytics or advertising platforms to operate | Yes where used for analytics beyond the exception, advertising, profiling, tracking or campaign measurement |
4.1. Online advertising cookies and similar technologies require consent. The ICO confirms that advertising-related purposes are not exempt from PECR consent requirements, including ad measurement and campaign performance.
5. Strictly necessary cookies
5.1. Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website to work or to provide a service you have requested.
5.2. These may include cookies used to:
5.2.1. remember your cookie choices;
5.2.2. keep the website secure;
5.2.3. manage form submissions;
5.2.4. maintain basic website functionality;
5.2.5. prevent fraud or technical faults.
5.3. We do not ask for consent for strictly necessary cookies because the law allows them where they are essential to provide the website or service you requested. The ICO explains that the strictly necessary exception applies where storage or access is essential to provide the service requested by the user, and advertising cookies are not strictly necessary from the user’s perspective.
6. Analytics cookies
6.1. We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use our website.
6.2. Analytics may help us understand:
6.2.1. how many people visit the website;
6.2.2. which pages are visited;
6.2.3. how long visitors spend on pages;
6.2.4. which devices, browsers or operating systems are used;
6.2.5. how visitors move through the website;
6.2.6. whether website content, structure or performance can be improved.
6.3. Our default position is that analytics cookies are only set after you consent.
6.4. Where analytics are configured only for aggregate statistical purposes and only to improve the website, we may rely on the DUAA/PECR statistical purposes exception instead of consent. Where we rely on that exception, we will give clear information and provide a simple free way to object. The exception cannot be used for identifying, tracking or monitoring people or groups of people, and it does not apply to online advertising.
7. Advertising and campaign cookies
7.1. We may use advertising cookies, pixels and tags to support our online advertising campaigns.
7.2. These technologies may be used to:
7.2.1. measure whether an advert led to a website visit, enquiry, booking, purchase or other conversion;
7.2.2. understand advertising campaign performance;
7.2.3. avoid showing the same advert too many times;
7.2.4. create or use advertising audiences;
7.2.5. retarget visitors who have previously visited our website;
7.2.6. match website activity with advertising platforms such as Google Ads / Meta / LinkedIn / TikTok / other;
7.2.7. improve the relevance of adverts shown on third-party platforms.
7.3. Advertising cookies, pixels and tags are only used if you give consent.
7.4. If you do not give consent, we will not set advertising cookies or pixels. You may still see our adverts elsewhere, but those adverts will not be based on advertising cookies or pixels set by our website.
7.5. The ICO states that storage and access technologies used for online advertising require consent, including technical ad delivery, tracking, profiling and advertising measurement.
8. Third-party cookies and platforms
8.1. Some cookies and similar technologies may be provided by third parties.
8.2. These may include:
8.2.1. website analytics providers;
8.2.2. advertising platforms;
8.2.3. social media platforms;
8.2.4. tag management providers;
8.2.5. embedded content providers.
8.3. Where third parties use cookies, pixels or tags through our website, information may be shared with those third parties.
8.4. Where consent is required, we will not enable those technologies until consent has been given.
8.5. Where we use third-party technologies, we are responsible for telling users clearly about them. The ICO states that service providers have primary responsibility for PECR compliance and must have appropriate arrangements with third parties used to provide the service.

12.4. For advertising cookies, pixels, tracking and profiling, our lawful basis is consent.
12.5. Where analytics are configured to rely on the statistical purposes exception, our lawful basis for any personal data processing may be legitimate interests, provided the processing is necessary, proportionate and compatible with UK GDPR requirements.
