Cookie Policy

Last updated: April 2026 • ICO guidance compliant

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember your preferences and understand how you use it. Some cookies are essential for the site to work; others are optional.

How We Use Cookies

We categorise our cookies into three types. When you first visit our site, we ask for your consent before setting any non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored in a cookie itself (iit_consent) and respected on future visits.

1. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function. They cannot be disabled. We don't ask for your consent to set these.

Cookie name Purpose Duration
__Host-iit-af Anti-forgery token — protects forms against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) Session
iit_consent Stores your cookie consent preferences 1 year
.AspNetCore.Session Session management — maintains your session state while you browse Session

2. Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the site — which pages are most popular, how people navigate, and where we can improve. We use Google Analytics 4. No personally identifiable information is sent to Google.

These cookies are only set if you accept analytics cookies via our cookie banner.

Cookie name Purpose Duration
_ga Google Analytics — distinguishes unique users 2 years
_ga_* Google Analytics 4 — session persistence 2 years

IP anonymisation is enabled in our Google Analytics configuration. Google's privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy

3. Marketing Cookies

We do not currently use marketing or advertising cookies. This category is listed here for transparency and future use — we will not activate marketing cookies without updating this policy and obtaining fresh consent.

Managing Your Preferences

You can change your cookie preferences at any time:

  • Via our cookie banner: click "Manage Preferences" if the banner is still visible, or clear your cookies to see the banner again on next visit.
  • Via your browser: all modern browsers allow you to view and delete cookies. See your browser's help documentation for instructions.
  • Google Analytics opt-out: install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on

Please note: disabling strictly necessary cookies will break core functionality including form submissions and portal login.
