Cookie Policy

Last updated: 28 April 2026 (version 2026-04-28)

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to site owners about how the site is being used. We also use similar technologies such as browser local storage for the same purposes.

Types of Cookies We Use

• Strictly Necessary: Required for the site to function, including authentication, security, and load balancing. These are always on and cannot be disabled. Examples: session cookies set by our authentication provider (AWS Cognito via Amplify).
• Analytics: Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-22M1TSFHJJ). Helps us understand how the site is used so we can improve it. IP anonymisation is enabled. Loaded only if you consent. Cookies may include _ga, _ga_*, _gid, and _gat.
• Marketing: Reserved for future use to measure campaign effectiveness. No marketing cookies are currently set, even if you consent to this category.
• Payment (Stripe): When you view our pricing or make a payment, Stripe may set cookies for fraud prevention and session integrity. These are treated as strictly necessary for completing a purchase.

Your Choices

On your first visit you are asked to choose which categories to allow. You can change your mind at any time using the button below or the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer.

Revoking Consent

Clicking "Withdraw Consent" above removes your stored preference, disables future Google Analytics loading, and clears analytics cookies we have set in your browser where technically possible. You will be asked to choose again on your next visit. You can also refuse or delete cookies through your browser settings; see aboutcookies.org for guidance.

Do Not Track

We do not currently respond to "Do Not Track" browser signals because there is no agreed industry standard. Your explicit cookie preference recorded via the banner always takes precedence.

Changes to This Policy

If we change which cookies we use, we will update the policy version above and ask you to review your choices again the next time you visit.
