Cookie policy

What cookies this site uses, why, and how to change your preferences at any time.

Draft for design review

Structure and headings only. Final legal wording is confirmed at development against current ICO and GMC guidance.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. Some are essential for the site to work; others help us understand how the site is used.

2. Your choices

When you first visit, a banner asks for your consent. Non-essential cookies are off by default and are only set if you accept them. You can change your choice at any time using the “Cookie settings” link in the footer.

3. Strictly necessary cookies

Required for security, form submission and remembering your cookie choice. These cannot be switched off.

4. Analytics cookies

With your consent, we use privacy-focused analytics to see which pages are useful. Data is aggregated and IP addresses are anonymised.

5. Embedded content

Maps and videos from third parties load only after you consent, because those providers may set their own cookies.

6. Managing cookies in your browser

You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings. Doing so may affect how parts of the site work.

7. Changes to this policy

We will update this page whenever the cookies we use change.
