A cookie is a small file a website leaves in your browser. This page says which ones we use.
We use cookies to make the site work and to count which pages get read. We do not use them to advertise to you, and we do not sell what they record.
What we set
Sign-in cookies. If you sign in, a cookie remembers you between pages — without it you would be signed out on every click. It goes when you sign out, and expires on its own if you do not. Its name is authjs.session-token and it lasts up to 30 days.
Security cookies. Short-lived, and they protect the sign-in process from being misused. Their names are authjs.csrf-token and authjs.callback-url; both are set when the sign-in page is opened and go when you close your browser.
Analytics cookies. We use Google Analytics to see how many people visit and which pages get read. Google sets cookies named _ga and _ga_ followed by a code; they last up to two years. They are on for every visitor. You can turn them off below, and they are then removed from this browser.
That is the whole list.
Your choice
What your browser remembers that is not a cookie
If you arrive from an advertisement or a link that carries campaign tags, your browser keeps those tags for the visit so that an enquiry you send can say where it came from. They go when you close the tab. Once you have sent an enquiry, your browser also keeps a marker so that the site does not ask you again; it holds no personal detail and stays until you clear the site’s data.
What we do not set
- No advertising or retargeting cookies
- No social media tracking pixels
- No cookies that follow you to other websites
Turning them off
Every browser can block or delete cookies, usually under Settings → Privacy. Block ours and you can still read every page here; you will not be able to sign in.
If this changes
If we ever add another cookie that is not strictly necessary, we will ask your permission before setting it, and this page will say so first.
