Cookie policy
Nothing that tracks you across the web, and nothing you cannot refuse except what keeps your refusal.
What a cookie is
A small file a site leaves in your browser so something can be remembered between pages — a consent choice, or a signed-in session.
Which ones this site involves
Your language is not one of them: it comes from the address of the page you are on, so the site sets no cookie of its own for it.
- Strictly necessary — Cookiebot stores the choice you make in the banner. This one cannot be refused, because it is what records a refusal.
- Strictly necessary — Clerk, which runs the sign-in for our staff area, sets session cookies. Its script loads on every page of this site, so these can appear on a visit that never touches the staff area.
- Statistics — Google Analytics sets identifiers that count visits and measure how pages are read. Only with your consent, and Google Consent Mode holds them denied until you give it.
- Third-party embed — the Google map on the home and contact pages sets its own cookies once loaded. It loads only when you allow it, or ask for it directly.
- Ad targeting and profiling — none. We run no advertising cookies and build no profile of you.
How to refuse or change your mind
Use the “Cookie settings” control in the footer: it opens the banner again, and you can withdraw statistics consent there at any time. Declining the marketing category is what keeps the Google map from loading. Whatever you decide, you can delete every cookie in your browser settings, and blocking them will not stop the site working.
If the consent banner is not present on a page, it is because analytics is not configured on this deployment — in which case no statistics cookie is set at all, and the map waits to be asked before it loads anything.
