Cookie Policy
Last updated: 2026. Declining costs you nothing — every page here remains fully available.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser so it can recognise your browser on a later visit. Related technologies such as local storage do the same job. This policy covers both.
What we use
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| tessera.cookie.choice | Strictly necessary | Stores whether you accepted or declined, so the notice is not shown again. Held in your browser's local storage, not sent to us. | Until you clear it |
| Session cookie | Strictly necessary | Keeps the website working correctly during a visit. | End of session |
| Analytics | Optional — consent required | Aggregated, anonymised measurement of which reference pages are read and how people move between them. | Up to 14 months |
What we do not use
- No advertising or retargeting cookies.
- No cross-site tracking pixels or social media trackers.
- No behavioural profiling of any kind.
- No analytics or optional cookie is loaded before you accept.
Your choice
When you first arrive, a small notice appears in the corner of the window with two options of equal weight: accept or reject. It is deliberately not a full-screen interstitial — it should never block your view of the page you came for. Whichever you choose, everything on this website stays available.
To change your mind later, clear this website's cookies and site data in your browser. The notice will appear again on your next visit.
Managing cookies in your browser
Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies from its settings, usually under Privacy. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how parts of this website behave, though there is little here that depends on them.
Third-party destinations
When you follow a link to a brand or a support organisation, that destination sets its own cookies under its own policy. We have no control over those and no visibility of them. Some brand links carry a referrer parameter so that a commission can be attributed — see our Disclosure.
