Cookies Policy
Last updated: 5 October 2026
This page explains the cookies and similar technologies used on this website. It follows the Information Commissioner’s Office guidance on storage and access technologies published in April 2026, which covers not only cookies but also pixels, scripts, device fingerprinting and browser storage.
Analytics cookies and your choice
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, consent is not needed for cookies that are strictly necessary to deliver a service you have asked for. It is needed for anything else.
The only optional technology on this website is Google Analytics, which helps us understand how visitors use the site, such as which pages are viewed, how long people stay and how they found us. It only runs if you click Accept on the cookie banner. If you click Decline, or ignore the banner, no analytics cookies are set and nothing is sent to Google. If you accept, we also count when visitors tap our phone number, email address or WhatsApp link, or send the enquiry form. The content of your message is never sent to Google. We run no advertising networks, no tracking pixels and no social media widgets, and our fonts are served from our own server rather than a third party.
You can change your mind at any time with the Cookie settings button at the bottom of the screen. Your choice is remembered for 180 days, after which we ask again.
What is actually set
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
_lscache_vary | This website | Tells our caching system which version of a page to serve. Contains no personal information. | Session |
wordpress_test_cookie | This website | Checks whether your browser accepts cookies. Only set on the sign-in page. | Session |
wordpress_logged_in_*, wordpress_sec_*, wp-settings-* | This website | Keep the site owner signed in to the administration area and remember interface settings. Never set for visitors — only for staff who sign in. | Session to 1 year |
seopress-user-consent-accept, seopress-user-consent-close | This website | Remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics cookies, so the banner does not appear on every page. | 180 days |
_ga | Google Analytics | Third party, only set if you accept. Distinguishes one visitor from another so we can count visits. It holds a random number, not your name or contact details. | 2 years |
_ga_W44NCL7QLN | Google Analytics | Third party, only set if you accept. Keeps track of your current visit. | 2 years |
Links to Google Maps
Our Contact and Areas We Cover pages link to Google Maps instead of embedding a map, so nothing from Google loads and no Google cookies are set while you use this website. If you choose to follow the link, Google Maps opens in a new tab and Google’s privacy policy applies there.
Our enquiry form
The enquiry form does not set a cookie. It does record your IP address and basic interaction signals at the moment you submit, purely to tell a genuine enquiry from an automated one. That is explained in our Privacy Policy.
How to control cookies
Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies, usually under Settings, then Privacy or Security. Blocking cookies for this site will not stop you reading it, though blocking them everywhere may affect other websites you use.
Instructions: Chrome · Safari · Firefox · Edge
If this changes
If we add any other non-essential technology, we will update this page first and, where the law requires it, ask for your consent before anything is set. The date at the top shows when this page was last revised.
