Cookie Policy
Every cookie this site can set, what it's for, and how long it lasts. Nothing for measurement or advertising runs until you say yes — and “no” means the code is never fetched, not merely switched off.
Version 1.0 · Last updated 9 September 2026
1. Change your choice
Whatever you picked, you can pick again. Nothing is remembered longer than twelve months — after that we ask you afresh.
2. What a cookie is
A cookie is a small file a website asks your browser to keep, so that something can be remembered between one page and the next. Some are essential — without them a shopping basket would empty every time you clicked. Others exist to count visitors, or to let an advertiser recognise you on another site later.
The rules in the UK (PECR, alongside UK GDPR) say the essential ones are fine, and everything else needs your permission first. That is why you saw a banner before anything measured or advertised.
This page also covers local storage, which does the same job by a different mechanism. We've listed those too rather than hide behind the word “cookie”.
3. What we set anyway
These are strictly necessary: the site cannot do its job without them, and they carry no advertising and no tracking. They stay on your device and are never sent to anyone else.
| Name | Type | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
lp-consent |
Local storage | Remembers the cookie choice you made on this page, so we don't ask again on every visit — and so we can prove what you chose. | 12 months |
lp-palette |
Local storage | Remembers which colour scheme you picked with the switcher, so the site looks the same when you come back. | Until you clear it |
Our host, Vercel, may also set a short-lived cookie to keep the site secure and route your request to the nearest server. It doesn't identify you and isn't used for advertising.
4. What we set only if you agree
None of the following exist on your device unless you switched the relevant group on. If you declined, the scripts that would set them were never loaded.
Measurement
| Name | Set by | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Google Analytics | Tells one browser apart from another so visits can be counted without counting you twice | Up to 2 years |
_ga_<ID> | Google Analytics | Keeps track of a single visit — which pages, in what order, for how long | Up to 2 years |
Advertising
We advertise on Google, on Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and on TikTok. These let those platforms recognise this browser, so we can tell which ads actually brought someone here, and stop paying to show the same ad to someone who has already visited.
| Name | Set by | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
_gcl_au | Google Ads | Links a click on one of our ads to what you did afterwards, so we know which ads work | 90 days |
_fbp | Meta Pixel | Identifies this browser to Meta so our ads can be measured and shown to people like you | 90 days |
fr | Meta, on facebook.com | Delivers and measures ads across Meta's own platforms | 90 days |
_ttp, _tt_enable_cookie | TikTok Pixel | Measures whether a TikTok ad led to a visit, and builds audiences for future ads | Up to 13 months |
Names and lifetimes are those the platforms publish, and they change them from time to time without telling us. If you find one on this site that isn't listed here, tell us and we'll either explain it or remove it.
6. How consent works here
- Off by default. Measurement and advertising start denied. The tags aren't loaded, so nothing can quietly fire while you decide.
- Refusing is as easy as accepting. “Reject all” sits next to “Accept all” in the same size button. It is not hidden behind a second screen.
- Google Consent Mode v2. If you accept advertising, your consent travels with the Google tag. If you don't, Google receives no advertising identifiers from you at all.
- Global Privacy Control. If your browser sends a GPC signal, we treat it as a refusal and don't show the banner. You can still turn things on deliberately.
- Withdrawing is one click, from the button in section 1 or the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of every page. Withdrawing stops any further collection; it can't undo what was collected while consent was in place.
7. Controlling cookies yourself
Your browser can block or delete cookies regardless of what any website asks for. Blocking everything will break things on many sites — including, sometimes, the mechanism that remembers you said no.
8. Opting out at Google, Meta and TikTok
Refusing here stops us sending anything to them from this site. To control what those platforms do with you generally, go to the source:
- Google — My Ad Centre
- Meta — ad preferences
- TikTok — privacy settings and policy
- Your Online Choices — one page, a lot of networks
9. Changes
If we add a tool that sets a cookie, this table gets a new row and the version at the top changes before the tool goes live — not after. If the change is significant we'll ask for your consent again rather than assume the old answer still covers it.
