What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. They help a site work properly, remember your choices and, if you allow it, understand how the site is used. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work in much the same way. In this policy, “cookies” covers them all.
First-party cookies are set by our website. Third-party cookies are set by other services, such as analytics providers.
The kinds of cookies we use
| Category | What it does | Your choice |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Makes the website work and remembers your cookie choice. The site can't work properly without these. | Always on |
| Analytics | Helps us understand, in aggregate, which pages are visited and how the site performs, so we can improve it. | Off unless you allow |
| Marketing | Would measure our campaigns on other platforms. We don't use any today. | Off unless you allow |
Cookies currently in use
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Category | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| alforaa_consent | Alforaa (first party) | Remembers which cookie categories you allowed | Strictly necessary | 180 days |
| _ga, _ga_MLJZWSMNVS | Google Analytics | Tells us, in aggregate, which pages are visited and how the site performs | Analytics (only if you allow) | Up to 2 years |
Google Analytics only runs if you allow the Analytics category. If you reject it, or change your mind later, it stops. If we add other services in future, we'll list their cookies here first.
