Cookies and analytics
This page lists everything this website stores on your device or reads from it, what each item is for, and how long it lasts. It also lets you switch off anything that is not strictly necessary. It sits alongside our privacy notice.
Your choices
Changes take effect immediately and are remembered for 180 days. Strictly necessary items cannot be switched off because the site would not work without them.
Strictly necessary
Needed for the site to work or to honour a choice you have made. Exempt from consent under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations.

| theme | Local storage (first party) | Remembers whether you chose light or dark mode with the light-bulb button. Not set until you use it. | Until you clear it |
| cf_clearance, __cf_bm | Cookie (Cloudflare, our security provider) | Set only if Cloudflare has to check that a request is not automated, so a genuine visitor is not challenged twice. Most visitors never receive one. | Up to 30 minutes (__cf_bm); up to a year (cf_clearance) |
Statistics
Aggregate figures only, used to improve the site. Permitted without consent under the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 because nothing is stored on your device and no one is identified; you can object using the switch above.
