Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make sites work more efficiently, remember preferences and understand how visitors use a site. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and tags.

2. How we use cookies

We aim to keep cookie use minimal. Currently, this website primarily uses essential cookies and local storage needed for core functionality and remembering that you have dismissed our cookie notice.

3. Types of cookies we may use

Depending on how the site is configured, cookies may fall into the following categories:

• Strictly necessary — required for the website to function (for example, security, load balancing or remembering cookie preferences)
• Performance / analytics — help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it (only if enabled)
• Functionality — remember choices you make to provide a more personalised experience
• Marketing — used to measure or deliver marketing content (only if enabled in future and, where required, with consent)

4. Cookies and storage we use today

At present, our site may use:

• Essential session or platform cookies provided by our hosting / website provider for security and performance
• Local storage key (bwj-cookie-notice) to remember that you have closed the cookie notice

5. Third-party cookies

If you leave our website via links to Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp, email or other third-party services, those platforms may set their own cookies under their own policies. We do not control those cookies.

If we add analytics or marketing tools in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy and, where required by UK law, request your consent before non-essential cookies are set.

6. How long cookies last

Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies or local storage entries remain until they expire or you delete them. Our cookie-notice preference is stored until you clear site data for this domain.

7. Managing cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies. If you block all cookies, some parts of this website may not work correctly.

You can also clear local storage for this site in your browser settings if you want the cookie notice to appear again.

8. Your consent

Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR, strictly necessary cookies do not require consent. We will seek consent before placing non-essential cookies if we introduce them.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do. Please review it periodically.
