Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the website function, remember your preferences and, where you consent, help us understand how visitors use the site.

Internal note—remove before publishing: This table must be completed once the development team confirms exactly which cookies and trackers the live site sets. Nothing here should be treated as final. Run a live cookie scan before publishing—for example, through your consent-management tool—and replace this table with the real list, including exact cookie names, providers and expiry periods.
