What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website saves in your browser. Similar technologies, such as your browser’s local storage, keep small pieces of information on your device in the same way. Some are essential for a site to work; others are optional and are only used with your consent.
How we use them
We keep this website light and group what it stores into three categories:
- Strictly necessary: remembers your cookie choices. Always on, because the site needs it to respect your decision.
- Functional: remembers your accessibility settings between visits. Optional; if you decline, your settings still work but are forgotten when you close the tab.
- Analytics: anonymous statistics about how pages are used. Optional and off unless you accept it. We do not run analytics today; if we add it, your saved choice will be respected and nothing is set without your consent.
Cookies and storage we use
| Name | Type | Purpose | Kept for | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
sw_consent | Cookie (mirrored in local storage) | Remembers your cookie choices so we do not ask again on every page. | 180 days | Strictly necessary |
sw_a11y | Local storage (session storage if declined) | Remembers the accessibility settings you choose, such as text size or contrast, between visits. If you decline functional storage, settings last only until you close the tab. | Until you reset them or clear your browser data | Functional |
Third-party services
Buttons that link to WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Facebook or the app stores are plain links: those services set no cookies through our pages unless you open them, and their own cookie policies apply once you do. Our fonts are served from our own server, so loading a page does not contact a font provider.
Managing your choices
You can review or change your choice at any time:
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary storage may mean your choices are not remembered between visits.
Changes to this policy
If we add or remove cookies, we will update this page and, where your consent is needed, ask you again.
