What cookies and local storage are
Cookies are small values a website asks a browser to store and return with later requests. Local storage saves a value in the browser without sending it with each page request. We use both only as described below.
Storage used by this site
| Name | Type and category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
PHPSESSID | Cookie · Necessary | Maintains the secure server session used for CSRF protection and form feedback. | Session; normally removed when the browser session ends. |
dl_consent_v1 | Local storage · Necessary | Records the consent-policy version, timestamp and your analytics and marketing choices so the banner does not ask on every page. | Until you clear site data or the consent version changes. |
Consent categories
Necessary storage supports security, the enquiry form and remembering privacy choices. It cannot be disabled through the settings panel.
Analytics permission allows storage used to measure how the website is used. Marketing permission allows storage used to measure or personalise marketing. These two categories are off unless you allow them.
Manage your choices
On your first visit, you can accept all, reject all or open settings. The three first-layer buttons have the same prominence. In settings, analytics and marketing can be controlled independently.
You can also clear this site’s data in your browser. Doing so removes the saved choice and the banner will appear again.
How consent is applied
Optional storage is denied by default. When you save a choice, the site updates the relevant consent state to granted or denied and stores the choice with a version and timestamp. Rejecting optional categories does not stop the necessary session or consent record.
