Cookie policy
Cookies are small files a website stores on your device. This page explains which ones this site uses and how to control them.
Last updated: 16 August 2026
The short version
This site is deliberately light. We do not run advertising cookies, and we do not sell or share your browsing behaviour with anyone.
The only storage we set ourselves is strictly necessary: it keeps the site working and remembers that you have seen our cookie notice. Under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, strictly necessary storage does not require your consent, but you should still know it is there.
Cookies and storage we use
- Strictly necessary — a record in your browser's local storage that you have dismissed the cookie notice, so we do not show it on every page. No personal data, no expiry beyond your browser storage.
- Strictly necessary — security and load-balancing cookies set by our hosting provider to serve the site reliably and protect it from abuse.
- Booking and payment — when you book or pay through Square, Square sets its own cookies on its booking and checkout pages to run the session, prevent fraud and remember your progress. Those are governed by Square's own cookie and privacy notices.
What we do not use
- No advertising or retargeting pixels.
- No social media tracking pixels.
- No cross-site profiling of any kind.
If we add analytics
We may later add basic analytics so we can see which pages are useful. If we do, we will ask for your consent before any non-essential cookie is set, give you a clear way to refuse or withdraw it, and update this page first.
Controlling cookies yourself
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time — every major browser has a privacy or cookies section, and most offer a private browsing mode. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of this site or the Square booking page from working properly.
