Why do we need it?

Analytics data help us understand how our website is working, and whether we could make changes that would improve your experience using our site.

What do we do with it?

We import your pseudonymised usage data into a third-part analytics platform (see below on data processors), and periodically review how people use our website.

In virtually all cases, we will only hold “pseudonymised” data about you, which means that we have data you generated, but we don’t have any way to link the data to you.

Do we use any data processors?

We use Google Analytics to analyse web traffic and usage data. For more information, please refer to their privacy notices.

Do we transfer any data overseas?

By consenting to our use of non-essential cookies, you are giving us permission to potentially transfer data about you to servers outside of the UK and European Economic Area.

What if you have concerns or want to make a complaint?
