Cookies Policy
Last updated 4 August 2026
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and SDKs. They help websites function, remember preferences and understand how they are used. This Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies to operate the site, keep you signed in, remember your settings and — only with your consent — to measure and improve performance. You can accept or reject non-essential cookies at any time.
3. Categories of cookies we use
Strictly necessary
Required for the site to function (security, session management, load balancing, saving your consent choice). These do not require consent and cannot be switched off in our systems.
Functional / preferences
Remember choices such as language, region and interface preferences to provide enhanced features.
Analytics / performance
Help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. Set only with your consent. We use Google Analytics 4, which sets the _ga and _ga_*cookies listed above to distinguish visitors and sessions. The Google Analytics script is not loaded at all unless you allow analytics cookies, and we do not enable Google's advertising or personalisation features.
We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which measures traffic without cookies and without any identifier for you. Because it sets nothing on your device, it is not a cookie and is not controlled by the choices below — it is injected by our CDN before the page reaches you. It records aggregate page views, referrer, approximate country, device type and page-timing measurements. See our Privacy Policy for the lawful basis and how to object.
Marketing
Used to measure campaigns and, where applicable, deliver relevant messaging. Set only with your consent.
4. Cookies we set (examples)
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
| go_session | Maintains your signed-in session | Session | Strictly necessary |
| go_consent | Stores your cookie consent choices | 12 months | Strictly necessary |
| go_prefs | Remembers interface preferences | 6 months | Functional |
| _ga / _ga_* | Aggregated usage analytics | Up to 13 months | Analytics |
The exact cookies present may vary as we improve the Services; the consent tool always reflects the current list.
5. Managing your preferences
When you first visit, a consent banner lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can change your choice at any time via the Cookie settings link in the footer. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some features may then not work as intended.
6. Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by third parties that process data under their own policies. We only enable non-essential third-party cookies after you consent.
The third-party analytics provider we use is Google Analytics 4, operated by Google Ireland Limited (and Google LLC in the United States). Google processes this data as described in Google's Privacy Policy. Because this can involve a transfer outside the European Economic Area, see the International transfers section of our Privacy Policy.
Cloudflare Web Analytics (Cloudflare, Inc.) also processes traffic measurements for us, but sets no cookies — so it does not appear in the table above and is not switched by the controls on this page.
7. Do Not Track
Because there is no common industry standard for “Do Not Track” signals, our site does not currently respond to them. You can still control cookies using the tools described above.
8. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Cookies Policy as our use of cookies evolves. The “Last updated” date reflects the latest version.
