Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information between page loads and visits, such as whether you are signed in.
We use essential cookies that are required to:
keep you signed in to your account (so you can access your order/questionnaire and continue where you left off),
maintain session security and protect against unauthorized access.
These cookies are strictly necessary to provide the service you request (for example, signing in and staying signed in). Because they are essential, they generally don’t require opt-in consent — but we still provide this policy so you understand what’s being set and why. (ICO)
Our site runs on WordPress. When you log in, WordPress sets cookies to authenticate you and keep your session active. These are first-party cookies (set by our site).
Below are common examples (names may include a unique “hash” and can vary):
| Cookie (example) | Purpose | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|
wordpress_[hash] | Stores authentication details for logged-in users (primarily for admin/auth areas). WordPress Developer Resources | Session or short-lived |
wordpress_logged_in_[hash] | Indicates you’re logged in and identifies your session for the site experience. WordPress Developer Resources | Session or persistent (e.g., if “Remember me” is used) |
wordpress_test_cookie | Checks whether your browser accepts cookies. | Session |
wp-settings-[UID], wp-settings-{time}-[UID] | Stores user interface preferences for logged-in users (where applicable). | Persistent (varies) |
We do not use cookies for advertising, cross-site tracking, or marketing.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. If you block or delete essential cookies:
you may not be able to sign in,
you may be signed out unexpectedly,
parts of the account/order workflow may not function correctly.
If we ever add non-essential cookies (for example, analytics), we will update this Cookie Policy and, where required, provide a consent choice before those cookies are used.
