Analytics, in plain English. We use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages actually help people. It is for statistical purposes only: we don't use it for advertising, and it doesn't track you across other sites. If you'd rather not be counted, you can opt out with Google's opt-out browser add-on, or by blocking cookies in your browser settings.

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4), which sets first-party analytics cookies (_ga, _ga_STXKVDG9CK) on your device to distinguish visitors and measure site usage. These cookies do not identify you personally. The Cloudflare Web Analytics service is also loaded; it is anonymous and cookieless and does not set cookies or store your IP address. Strictly necessary session cookies are used only where the site functionally requires them (for example, to preserve your form input across a refresh).

We do not use advertising, retargeting, or third-party tracking cookies.

We protect your data through encrypted transmission (SSL/TLS), secure storage, and access limited to authorised staff only. We regularly review our security measures to ensure they remain appropriate.
