Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used (for example which pages are visited and how people find us) so that we can improve it. Under the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 this kind of analytics does not need your consent in advance, but you can object at any time. Google signals and advertising personalisation are switched off: the data is not used for advertising, remarketing or ad targeting.

To opt out, use the "Opt out of analytics" button at the bottom of this page. Analytics will then stop running in that browser. You can also use Google's own opt-out browser add-on.

Advertising and tracking

We do not use advertising, remarketing or third-party tracking cookies.

More information

Cookie use is governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), as amended by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025, and the UK GDPR. The ICO has guidance at https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/direct-marketing-and-privacy-and-electronic-communications/guide-to-pecr/cookies-and-similar-technologies/.
