Cookies Policy

We want to be clear about how we use cookies on this website, what information they collect, and how you can control them.

What are cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites work properly and can also be used to remember your preferences or understand how visitors use a site.

Types of cookies

  • Session cookies – temporary cookies deleted when you close your browser
  • Persistent cookies – remain on your device between visits
  • First-party cookies – set by our website
  • Third-party cookies – set by another organisation whose service we use on our website, such as LinkedIn or Meta (Facebook)

Cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies – needed for the website and our cookie consent tool to work properly, for example remembering your cookie preferences. These cannot be switched off.

Performance and analytics cookies – help us understand how visitors use our site so we can improve it, using Google Analytics. This information is aggregated, and we cannot identify you from it.

Functionality cookies – remember your choices and preferences to give you a more personalised experience on our website.

Targeting and advertising cookies – set by third parties, including LinkedIn and Meta (Facebook), to measure the effectiveness of our advertising and, where applicable, show you relevant adverts. These may track your activity across other websites.

Do we need your consent

Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent, as they are needed for the site and our cookie tool to work.

Our performance and functionality cookies are used only for analytics and improving your experience of the site. Under current guidance from the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), we may set these without asking for consent first, provided we are transparent about their use and give you an easy way to opt out.

Targeting and advertising cookies, including those set by LinkedIn and Meta, are only set with your consent. You can choose whether to accept these when you first visit our website using our cookie consent banner, and you can change your preferences at any time (see below).

How to control cookies

You can manage your cookie preferences at any time using the cookie settings link at the bottom of our website, where you can accept or reject non-essential cookies, including targeting and advertising cookies.

You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you refuse cookies or alert you when a cookie is being set. Please note that blocking cookies may affect how parts of our website work.
