How I use cookies on this site

This website uses cookies in a few ways:

Essential cookies — these are necessary for the site to function and can’t be switched off. They don’t store any personally identifiable information.

Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) — I use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use this site — things like which pages are most visited and how long people spend on them. This helps me make the site more useful. The data collected is anonymous and aggregated; I can’t identify you personally from it. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Marketing cookies (Meta/Facebook)if you’ve clicked through from a Facebook or Instagram advert, Meta may place a cookie on your device to help measure how effective that advert was. Meta may also use this information to show you relevant adverts on their platforms. You can manage your Meta ad preferences at facebook.com/ads/preferences.
