What cookies are
Cookies are small text files your browser stores when you visit a website. They let a site remember your settings, keep your session open and, in some cases, measure how you found the page. Similar tools, such as local storage and advertising pixels, work in much the same way and are covered by this policy.
The cookies we use
We keep our use of cookies narrow.
- Essential: needed for the site to load and for forms to submit. These cannot be switched off.
- Analytics: anonymous statistics on which pages people read and how they move through the site.
- Advertising: set when you arrive from an ad, so we can tell which campaign brought you here.
Third party cookies
Some cookies come from services we rely on, such as Google Analytics and advertising platforms. Those companies set their own cookies and handle the resulting data under their own privacy policies. We do not control what they do with it, and we suggest reading their documentation if you want the fine detail.
Managing cookies
You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Every major browser has a help page explaining where those controls live. Blocking essential cookies may stop parts of the site from working, and blocking analytics cookies means we lose the data we use to improve pages.
Updates to this policy
If we add a new tool that uses cookies, we will update this page and refresh the date shown at the top. Continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the change.
