You are not required to consent to non-essential cookies in order to browse the basic content of our website.
Where consent is required, simply continuing to browse the website does not constitute consent.

12. WITHDRAWING OR CHANGING YOUR CONSENT
You can change or withdraw your consent to non-essential cookies at any time.
We aim to make withdrawal of consent as easy as giving consent.
You can do this through the Cookie Settings or equivalent cookie-preference mechanism available on our website.
If the website provides a persistent cookie-settings button or link, you can use it to reopen your preferences.
Changing your preferences does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before you withdrew your consent.

Our current third-party services may include:
Google Analytics
Google Ads

These providers may change their technologies, cookie names, purposes or retention periods from time to time.
Third-party providers operate according to their own privacy and cookie policies.
Where a third-party technology is subject to consent requirements, we aim to prevent it from being activated until the relevant consent has been obtained.
14. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS
Some of the providers we use operate internationally.
As a result, information collected through cookies or similar technologies may be processed outside the European Economic Area (EEA), including in the United States.
Where the GDPR applies, we seek to ensure that international transfers are carried out using an appropriate legal mechanism, such as:
an adequacy decision;
Standard Contractual Clauses;
another legally recognised transfer mechanism; or
another lawful transfer mechanism available under applicable law.

15. HOW LONG COOKIES REMAIN ON YOUR DEVICE
Different cookies have different lifespans.
Some cookies are session cookies, meaning they are deleted when you close your browser.
Others are persistent cookies, meaning they remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.
The duration of a particular cookie depends on the service that places it and may change over time.
Because third-party providers can update their technologies, the exact cookie names and retention periods may change without notice.
Where appropriate, our cookie-consent system may provide more detailed information about individual cookies, including their provider, purpose and duration.
16. MANAGING COOKIES THROUGH YOUR BROWSER
You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings.

block third-party cookies;
allow cookies only from certain websites; or
delete cookies automatically when you close your browser.
Please note that blocking necessary cookies may affect the functionality of our website or prevent certain services from working correctly.

Depending on the circumstances, these may include:
the right to access your personal information;
