Cookies and Tracking

Effective 20 September 2026Version 1.7

We use a small number of cookies and similar technologies. Essential ones keep the site working. Everything else runs only with your consent, and you can change your choices at any time.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small files stored on your device by your browser. We also use similar technologies such as local storage and measurement pixels. Together we refer to these as cookies in this notice.

2. Categories we use

  • Strictly necessary: required for the site to work, including security, load balancing and remembering your cookie choices. These cannot be switched off.
  • Analytics: help us understand which pages are used and where the experience can be improved. Aggregated, never used to identify you personally.
  • Advertising and measurement: allow us to measure the effectiveness of campaigns that bring families to the site.
  • Preferences: remember choices such as your region or previously entered search context.

5. How consent works by region

  • UK, EEA and Switzerland: non-essential cookies are set only after you opt in, and you may withdraw consent at any time.
  • United States: essential and analytics cookies operate by default where permitted, and you may opt out of any sharing for cross-context behavioural advertising.
  • United Arab Emirates and other regions: we apply the opt-in standard by default where local law is unclear or stricter.

6. Manage your preferences

You can change your choices at any time. Browser settings also let you block or delete cookies, though blocking essential cookies will break parts of the site.
