Cookie policy
The short version
This site uses no advertising cookies, no third-party trackers and no social-media pixels. It sets at most three first-party cookies, listed in full below.
Separately from cookies, we keep a server-side log of visits (IP address, pages opened, approximate location) for 90 days on a legitimate-interests basis. That log uses no cookies and reads nothing from your device, so it is not covered by the choice below — it is described in full under "Visitor logs" in our privacy policy, including how to object.
Cookies we set
| Cookie | Purpose | Type | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
consent |
Remembers your cookie choice | Strictly necessary | 12 months (accept) / 6 months (decline) |
sid |
Random session id for our own analytics — set only after you accept | Analytics (consent-based) | 1 day |
admin_session |
Staff sign-in to the admin area; never set for visitors | Strictly necessary (staff only) | 12 hours |
How consent works
On your first visit the banner offers Accept analytics or Decline. Decline sets only the consent cookie so we do not ask on every page, and nothing is tracked. Accept enables our first-party analytics: pages viewed, referrer, approximate country, device class and page duration, tied to a random sid — never to your name or email. IP addresses are pseudonymised before storage and analytics data is deleted after 14 months.
Changing your mind
Delete this site's cookies in your browser and the banner will ask again. Withdrawing consent stops future analytics immediately; you can also ask us to delete past events associated with your session id via info@cyclomer.co.uk.
