What gets stored, and when.

Nothing is stored for measurement unless you allow it. If you never touch the banner, no analytics cookie is ever set — and outside the EU and UK, where the rules are opt-out, you can turn it off from any page.

Before you choose

Google Analytics loads in a restricted mode that sets no cookies and cannot identify you. It reports that a page was viewed and nothing that ties it to a person or a device across visits. This is Google's Consent Mode, and it is what lets us count visits at all without tracking anybody who hasn't agreed to it.

If you allow it

Google Analytics sets its own cookies to recognise a returning browser and to tell whether an advert brought you here. That is the whole purpose — we advertise, and we need to know which adverts are worth paying for.

_ga — distinguishes one browser from another. Expires after two years.
_ga_<id> — keeps the state of a visit for that same purpose. Expires after two years.

We don't use them for advertising profiles beyond measuring whether our own ads worked, and we never combine them with what you write in the enquiry or booking forms.

If you decline

No analytics cookies are set at all, and the restricted mode above is all that runs. Nothing on this site stops working — there is no feature here that depends on being tracked.

The two things that aren't cookies

Your Day / Night choice and your answer to the cookie banner are both kept in your own browser's storage rather than in a cookie. Neither is ever sent to us, and clearing your browser data removes both.

Changing your mind

Cookie settings sits in the footer of every page. It reopens the same choice, and switching to no thanks stops any further collection immediately. Your browser can also block or delete these cookies without asking us.
