Cookie Policy
Last updated: 8 November 2026
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website places on your device. Some are essential for a site to work or stay secure; others track how you use a site or show you advertising.
2. How this site uses them
This site keeps cookies to a minimum. It does not use analytics, advertising, social media or tracking cookies, and it does not store any information in your browser for its own purposes.
The only cookies that may be set are strictly necessary security cookies from Cloudflare, which hosts and protects the site. They help tell real visitors apart from automated traffic and protect the site from attacks. They do not identify you personally and are not used for tracking or advertising.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| __cf_bm | Cloudflare | Distinguishes people from bots to protect the site | Strictly necessary | 30 minutes |
| cf_clearance | Cloudflare | Records that a security check has been passed, where one is shown | Strictly necessary | Up to 1 year |
3. Your consent
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), strictly necessary cookies do not need your consent, which is why the site does not show a cookie banner. If I ever add cookies that are not strictly necessary, such as analytics, I will update this policy and ask for your consent before they are set.
4. Managing cookies
You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site from working properly.
5. More information
