DRAFT — to be reviewed before publication.
Not the chocolate-chip kind, sadly. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. Similar technologies include local storage and pixels — we call them all "cookies" here.
1. How we use cookies
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), we only set cookies that aren't strictly necessary if you agree via our cookie banner. You can change your choice any time using the "Cookie settings" link in the footer.
2. The cookies we use

3. How long they last
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies last from 24 hours up to 13 months (the consent cookie lasts 6 months so we can ask you again).
