What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your phone, tablet or computer. They help the website work properly and remember things such as your settings. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work in the same way, and this policy covers them too.
How we use cookies
We keep cookies to a minimum. We only use the ones this website needs to work, stay secure and remember your cookie choices. We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not use cookies to track you across other websites.
We do not use analytics cookies, such as Google Analytics. If we add them in the future, we will update this page and tell you how to opt out.
The cookies we use
These cookies are strictly necessary. The website cannot work properly without them, so they don't need your consent.
| Cookie | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
cookieadmin_consent | Set by our cookie banner. Remembers whether you have accepted or declined cookies, so we don't ask you on every page. | 12 months |
_GRECAPTCHA (set by Google) | Used by Google reCAPTCHA to tell real visitors apart from spam bots, so our contact form stays protected. | 6 months |
__cf_bm (set by Cloudflare) | Helps Cloudflare, which protects our website, tell real visitors apart from harmful automated traffic. | Up to 30 minutes |
_cfuvid (set by Cloudflare) | Helps Cloudflare tell visitors apart when several people share the same internet connection, so it can limit abuse fairly. | Until you close your browser |
wordpress_test_cookie | Checks that your browser accepts cookies. Only used if you visit our staff login page. | Until you close your browser |
wordpress_logged_in_…wordpress_sec_… | Keep our own staff logged in while they update the website. Visitors never get these. | Until the browser closes, or 14 days if "Remember me" is ticked |
Services from other companies
Some features of this website come from other companies:
- Cloudflare protects and speeds up our website, and sets the two security cookies listed above. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.
- Google Fonts provides the lettering on our pages. It doesn't set cookies, but your browser connects to Google, which receives your IP address. See Google's privacy policy.
- Google reCAPTCHA protects our contact form from spam. It runs in the background on our pages and sends information about your device and visit to Google. See Google's privacy policy and terms of service.
- Google Maps: our "Get directions" link opens Google Maps in a new tab. Google's own cookies apply once you are on their site.
How to manage cookies
You can change your cookie choices at any time using the cookie settings link at the bottom of the website.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Look for "Cookies" or "Privacy" in your browser's settings or help pages. If you block strictly necessary cookies, some parts of this website, such as the contact form, may not work.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy if the cookies we use change. The latest version will always be on this page.
