Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited. Google Analytics places cookies on your device to help us understand how visitors use our website. The information generated by these cookies (including your IP address, anonymised) is transmitted to and stored on Google servers.
We have enabled IP anonymisation in our Google Analytics setup, which means your IP address is truncated before storage. Google's use of this data is governed by Google's privacy policy, available at policies.google.com/privacy.
Our website also embeds a Google Maps iframe on our homepage to display our location. When the map loads, Google may set cookies. These are governed by Google's privacy policy.
We do not use any other third-party cookies for advertising or social media tracking.
