What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, phone) when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember information about your visit, for example whether you are logged in. Cookies are used by almost every website to make them work properly, to remember preferences, and to understand how visitors use a site (analytics) or to show adverts. We do not use advertising cookies.
Under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), we must tell you what cookies we use and, for any non-essential cookies, get your consent before setting them.
Cookies we use on this website
We use strictly necessary cookies, cookies that are essential for the website to function. These do not require your consent under PECR. With your consent, we also use Google Analytics (see Analytics below), and Google Maps may set cookies when our office maps load (see Maps below). We do not use advertising cookies.
Strictly necessary cookies
For ordinary visitors browsing the site, no cookies are set. Pages, fees and information load without cookies.
Spam protection on our forms
Our callback forms use Cloudflare Turnstile to check that a real person is sending the form. It runs only on pages with a form, and only to protect the form from spam and abuse.
Maps
Our office maps are provided by Google Maps. Maps only load if you select Accept all in our cookie banner, or choose Show map on a map. Google may then set its own cookies. See Google's privacy policy.
Your cookie choice
We remember your choice in your browser's local storage so we do not ask again on every page. This is not a cookie and is not shared with anyone. You can change your choice at any time using Cookie settings at the bottom of every page. If you withdraw consent, Google Analytics stops, its cookies are removed, and maps stop loading. To remove any Google Maps cookies already set, use your browser settings below.
Hosting and security
Our website is hosted on Vercel. The hosting platform may use strictly necessary technical measures to protect the website against malicious traffic, bots and attacks. These do not require consent under PECR.
Analytics
If you select Accept all, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our website, for example which pages are visited and how people find us. This helps us improve the site. Google Analytics does not load, and sets no cookies, unless you accept.
- _ga: distinguishes visitors. Expires after 2 years.
- _ga_<ID>: keeps track of your visit. Expires after 2 years.
We have turned off Google signals and advertising features, so this data is not used to show you adverts. Google processes the data on our behalf. See Google's privacy policy and how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
If you change your choice to Reject optional using Cookie settings, Google Analytics stops and we remove its cookies from your browser.
Advertising and marketing cookies
We do not use advertising or marketing cookies, such as Facebook Pixel or Google Ads remarketing, and we do not share visitor data with third parties for marketing.
How to manage cookies in your browser
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Each browser is slightly different. The links below take you to the relevant instructions:
Blocking or deleting our strictly necessary cookies will not prevent you from using the public-facing parts of this website.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, particularly if we change the cookies we use. Any changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We recommend reviewing this policy occasionally so you stay informed about how we use cookies.
