Cookie Policy
What we store on your device, why, and how you stay in control.
Cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) are small pieces of data a website saves on your device. We use them only for the purposes below. Apart from strictly necessary storage, nothing is set until you choose to allow it.
Categories we use
| Category | Purpose | Your choice |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Remembers your cookie choice (fdss_consent) and keeps staff sign-in secure (session cookie, staff only). The site cannot work properly without these. | Always on |
| Preferences | Remembers settings such as language or region where the site offers them. | Off until you allow |
| Analytics | Helps us understand which pages are useful and how the site performs, so we can improve it. | Off until you allow |
| Marketing | Measures campaigns and, where used, shows relevant content on other sites. | Off until you allow |
Your choices
- On your first visit you can accept all, reject non-essential or customise by category. Rejecting is as easy as accepting.
- You can change or withdraw consent at any time using Cookie Settings in the footer of every page or the button above.
- We ask again after a set period, or sooner if the cookies we use change.
- If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal of analytics and marketing cookies.
- You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; some parts of the site may then not work as intended.
What we record about your choice
To demonstrate that consent was given or withdrawn, we keep a record of your choice: the date and time, a random identifier, which categories you allowed, the version of this policy shown, the page you were on, your IP address, your browser, device type and language, and the page you came from. We keep this record only as proof of your choice, for a limited period, and then delete it.
