What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small pieces of information that websites can store on your device.
Similar technologies can include browser storage, scripts, tags and technologies that access information about a device.
How we use these technologies
We use necessary technologies for website security and essential functionality, including protecting the enquiry form against spam, bots and abuse. We also use optional analytics technologies to understand how visitors use the website and improve its content and performance.
We remember your cookie preference in first-party browser storage under the name bas-cookie-consent. It contains your analytics choice, the consent version and the time of your choice, not your name or contact details. We ask you to choose again after six months or if the consent model materially changes.
Cloudflare Turnstile
We use Cloudflare Turnstile on the enquiry form for security and bot protection. It processes security information to distinguish genuine visitors from automated traffic. It is not used for advertising or marketing and continues to work independently of your optional analytics preference.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website. With your permission, it can collect information such as:
- pages visited;
- interactions with the website;
- device/browser information;
- approximate location derived from technical information; and
- information about how you arrived at the website.
Google Analytics is only loaded after you accept optional analytics and only on our production website. It is not loaded on our staging website. We do not use it for advertising or remarketing.
Google Analytics can use first-party cookies such as _ga and _ga_ZW6PGV84S0 to distinguish visitors and maintain session information. We configure their expiry to six months. Optional analytics technologies are controlled by your cookie preference.
Your choices
You can accept or reject optional analytics technologies. Use the Cookie settings control below or in the footer at any time to review or change your preference, including withdrawing consent.
Necessary/security technologies cannot be disabled through our consent controls because they are required for security or essential functionality.
If you withdraw analytics consent, we disable further analytics measurement and remove the Google Analytics cookies accessible to this website. This does not delete information already sent to Google before you withdrew consent.
You can also use your browser controls to manage cookies and browser storage. Disabling necessary technologies may affect website functionality. If JavaScript is unavailable, optional analytics does not load.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when the technologies used by our website change.
