Cookie policy
We only use analytics and advertising cookies if you agree to them. When you first visit, a banner lets you accept them all, reject them all, or choose each type. Nothing is sent to Google until you do. You can change your mind at any time with Cookie settings, which is also at the bottom of every page. We ask again after 12 months.
- Analytics (only with your consent): Google Analytics sets the
_gaand_ga_<ID>cookies, which last up to 2 years. They show us which pages are visited and how people find the site, so we can improve it. Google processes this data on our behalf. - Advertising (only with your consent): Google Ads sets cookies such as
_gcl_auand_gcl_aw, which last up to 90 days. They tell us which of our Google adverts lead to enquiries and orders, and Google may use them to choose the adverts you see. With this consent we also:- keep a note in your browser, for 90 days, of the advert or campaign that brought you to our site (the Google click ID and campaign tags in the link you followed), the page you arrived on and the website you came from. If you then send us an enquiry, order or booking, these details are sent with it, so we can see which advert or campaign it came from.
- when you send us an enquiry, order or booking, give Google your email address and phone number in hashed (scrambled) form, so it can match your enquiry to an advert you clicked. This is known as enhanced conversions.
- Essential: your browser stores your cookie choice, so we don’t ask you again on every page. Our enquiry and order forms use Cloudflare Turnstile to block spam.
If you reject a type of cookie, or later withdraw your consent, we delete that type’s cookies from your browser, along with any advert details we noted.
