Last updated: April 2026. This policy explains what tracking technologies we use, why, and exactly how you can control or opt out of them.
1. Who we are

This policy is governed by UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 as amended by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 (in force February 2026).
2. What tracking technologies we use
We use one analytics tool on this website. It is not used for advertising, remarketing, or behavioural profiling. We do not use any marketing or third-party advertising cookies.
Google Analytics 4 (GA4)
GA4 is provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. It helps us understand how visitors navigate the website so we can improve it. GA4 places text files (cookies) on your device to count visits and measure engagement. GA4 is only activated after you give consent using the banner on your first visit or the controls in Section 3 below.
We have configured GA4 with: IP anonymisation enabled; Google Signals disabled; advertising features disabled; data sharing with Google disabled. Data may be processed on Google servers in the United States. Transfers rely on the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (the UK-US Data Bridge). See Google's Privacy Policy.

3. Your choices and opt-out
You can withdraw or change your analytics consent at any time using the controls below. Your selection is saved in your browser and takes effect immediately.
Google Analytics 4
If you previously accepted GA4 cookies, you can withdraw that consent below. GA4 data collection will stop immediately and cookies will not be set on future visits. If you have not yet made a choice, the banner on this page will also allow you to decide.
You can also install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for a permanent, browser-level block across all websites using GA4.

You can restrict or delete cookies directly through your browser settings. Note that blocking all cookies may affect how some websites function. Below are links to the official guidance for major browsers.
5. Strictly necessary technologies
This website does not use any marketing, advertising, or cross-site tracking cookies. Beyond analytics, the only data stored on your device is the consent preference you set above (km_analytics_consent), which is strictly necessary to remember your choice and does not require consent.
6. Updates to this policy
We may update this policy when we make changes to the technologies we use. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
