1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your browser or device when you visit. They help the website work, remember your preferences, and understand how people use it.
- First-party cookies are set by our website.
- Third-party cookies are set by other services that we use on our website, such as Google.
- Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay on your device until they expire or you delete them.
We also use similar technologies, such as scripts, tags and pixels, that can collect information about your visit. In this policy, “cookies” includes these technologies.
2. Types of cookies we use
2.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are needed for the website to work and stay secure. Our website runs on WordPress, which sets cookies mainly for people who log in to manage the website, such as our team.

Some pages include embedded content from other services, such as a Google Map showing our location, or a YouTube video. These services may set their own cookies when the embedded content loads, for example to remember your preferences or protect against fraud.

We may use advertising and remarketing tags from platforms such as Google and Meta to measure how well our ads work and to show our ads to people who have visited our website. These cookies are set only when such tags are enabled on our website.
