Campaign codes
If you arrive on our website from an advert or a tracked link, the campaign codes in that link (such as utm_source, gclid or fbclid) are kept in your browser's session storage until you close the tab. They are only sent to us if you submit an enquiry, so we know which advert or link brought it. They are not cookies and are not shared with anyone else.
Maps and videos
We do not load maps or videos from other websites before you agree, so they cannot set cookies on your device without your consent.
