What we process

Your consent choices. When you accept or refuse cookies, the consent platform stores your choice so the site can respect it. Consent platform provider: to be confirmed
Analytics data, only if you agree to analytics cookies. Google Analytics records details such as the pages viewed, the type of device and browser, the country or region of the visit and the page you came from.
Advertising data, only if you agree to advertising cookies. Google and its advertising partners use cookies and similar identifiers to show ads, limit how often the same ad appears, measure ads and detect fraud. Ads on this site are set up not to be personalised.
Measurements while consent is refused. Before you choose, and if you refuse, Google tags can still send limited measurements that do not set or read cookies. Each one carries the time, browser details, the page you came from and a random number for that page load.
Contact messages. If you use the contact form, we receive your message, the topic, your email address and your name if you give it.
Server and security records. Our web server and our security provider log basic details of each request, such as the IP address, browser details, the page requested and the time.

We do not ask for your age, payment details or any account details, because there are no accounts. The only name we ever receive is one you choose to type into the contact form.

When what we process changes, for example when a provider is added, this notice is updated before the change takes effect. The cookie policy changes at the same time.
