What we collect
Analytics (only with your consent)
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it.
Before you consent, we do not set any cookies and do not store or collect any information that can identify you. In this state Google Analytics operates in a cookieless mode: it sends anonymous, aggregated signals that let Google estimate overall visitor numbers, but no identifiers, no cookies, and no personal data are used.
After you click Accept, Google Analytics is enabled with cookies and may collect:
- Pages you visit and how you navigate between them
- Approximate location (derived from your IP address, which Google truncates)
- Device, browser, and operating system information
- Referring website or campaign
We have configured Google Consent Mode v2 so that storage and advertising signals default to denied until you opt in. We do not use this data for advertising or personalization.
Google Analytics is provided by Google LLC. For details on how Google processes this data, see Google’s Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Contact
If you email us, we process the information you provide (such as your name, email address, and message) solely to respond to your enquiry.

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, and to data portability.
