Cookies

Which cookies and similar storage this site uses, what they do, and how to change your choice.

Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as your browser’s local storage, work in the same way. The law requires your consent for any that are not strictly necessary to give you the service you asked for.

Strictly necessary

These do not need consent and do not track you across other websites.

  • WordPress may set a small number of cookies to keep a logged-in administrator signed in or to protect forms against misuse. Ordinary visitors normally receive none.
  • pf_consent (local storage): remembers your answer to the cookie banner so we do not ask again. It holds only “accepted” or “rejected” and the date.
  • pf_brief_draft and pf_review_draft (local storage): if you start filling in the project brief or the site review form, your answers are saved in your own browser so you do not lose them if the page closes. They never leave your device until you press send, and they are cleared when you do.

Analytics (only with your consent)

We use Google Analytics 4 to count visits and see which pages people find useful. It loads only after you choose “Accept analytics” in the banner. If you accept, Google sets cookies named _ga and _ga_ followed by an identifier, which last up to two years and let Google recognise your browser on return visits to this site. Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. If you choose “No thanks”, nothing from Google loads. You can change your choice at any time with the “Cookie settings” link in the footer.

Paying online

When you book and pay, you are taken to a payment page hosted by Stripe. Stripe sets its own cookies there, on its own website, to process the payment securely and prevent fraud. They are covered by Stripe’s cookie policy. Stripe’s code does not load on our own pages.

Fonts and scripts

Fonts and animation scripts are served from this website, not from third-party servers, so no information is sent elsewhere when a page loads.
