Cookie Policy
Last updated: April 2026
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work properly, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners about how their site is being used. Cookies do not give us access to your device or any personal information beyond what you choose to share with us.
2. Our Website
This website is hosted on Netlify and uses Stripe to process card payments securely. We may also use analytics tools to understand how visitors use the site. These services may set their own cookies as part of how they function.
3. Cookies We Use
| Type | Purpose | Consent |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Required for the website to function and for secure payment processing via Stripe. | No consent required |
| Analytics | Helps us understand how visitors use our website (e.g. pages visited, time on site) so we can improve it. | Consent required |
| Functional | Remembers your preferences to improve your experience on the site. | Consent required |
Please note that the specific cookies used may vary as our service providers update their platforms. We will update this policy as needed to reflect any material changes.
4. Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. Without them, services such as page navigation and payment processing would not work. Because they are essential, these cookies do not require your consent. You can set your browser to block these cookies, but this may affect how the website works.
5. Non-Essential Cookies
All other cookies — including analytics and functional cookies — are non-essential and require your consent before being placed on your device. You can change your preferences at any time by clearing your cookies and revisiting the site.
6. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically choose to block all cookies, block third party cookies only, or delete cookies that have already been placed. Please note that blocking cookies may affect the functionality of our website and others you visit.

7. Third Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are set by third party services rather than directly by us. We do not control these cookies and they are governed by the privacy policies of the relevant providers, including Stripe (stripe.com/gb/privacy) and, where analytics are enabled, Google (policies.google.com/privacy).
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example if we add new features to our website or if the law changes. The most recent version will always be available on our website.
