Cookie Policy
This page explains what cookies are, which cookies our website uses, and how you can manage them. We aim to be straightforward about what data is collected and why.
Last updated: 1 January 2025
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites function, to help site owners understand how visitors use their sites, and in some cases to support advertising. Cookies do not typically contain information that identifies you personally, though they may be associated with your device or browser.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies in three broad ways: to support the basic operation of the website, to understand how visitors navigate and interact with our pages, and — with your consent — to support advertising tools that help us reach people who may be interested in our services.
3. Cookies We Use
The table below describes the cookies and tracking technologies used on this website.
| Cookie / Service | Type | Purpose | Duration |

| hako_cookie_consent | Essential | Stores your cookie consent choice so the banner does not reappear on each visit. | 1 year |
| Google Analytics (_ga, _gid) | Analytics | Anonymised data on pages visited, session length, and traffic sources. Helps us understand which content is useful and improve the website. Set by Google Analytics. | Up to 2 years |

4. Your Choices
When you first visit our website, you will be shown a consent banner. From there, you may:
- Accept all cookies — enables essential, analytics, functional, and advertising cookies
- Accept essential only — enables only cookies necessary for the website to function
You can also manage cookies at any time through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect how parts of the website function — for example, the embedded map may not load correctly.
5. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Instructions for managing cookies vary by browser. Most browsers offer a settings or preferences menu where cookies can be cleared or blocked. For guidance specific to your browser, please refer to the help documentation for:
- Google Chrome — Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies
- Mozilla Firefox — Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Safari — Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge — Settings > Cookies and Site Permissions
6. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on this website are set by third-party services, including Google and Meta. These parties have their own privacy and cookie policies which govern how they use data collected through their tools. We encourage you to review those policies independently if you have concerns about third-party data practices.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as our website or the technologies we use change. Any updates will be posted here with a revised date. If the changes are significant, we may refresh the consent banner so you have an opportunity to review and re-confirm your preferences.
