COOKIE POLICY
Last updated: 11 August 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how this website uses cookies and similar technologies. It should be read alongside the Privacy Notice, which explains more generally how personal information is collected and used.

WHAT COOKIES ARE
Cookies are small files stored on your computer, phone or other device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, scripts and other methods of storing or accessing information on a device.
These technologies can help a website function securely, remember choices, support forms and booking services, or load content provided by another service.
HOW THIS WEBSITE USES COOKIES
STRICTLY NECESSARY TECHNOLOGIES
These technologies support essential website functions, including:
• delivering and securing website pages;
• preventing misuse or malicious submissions;
• remembering your cookie choices;
• supporting essential form or session functions;
• identifying technical problems.
Where these technologies are strictly necessary to provide a service you have requested, they may be used without consent. They are not used for advertising.
FUNCTIONAL AND THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
This website uses services provided by third parties. These services may use cookies, local storage or similar technologies to provide their functions, maintain security or remember preferences.
Services currently used include:
Calendly
Calendly is used to display available initial-consultation appointments and provide the booking process. Calendly may use its own technologies when the booking service is loaded or used.
Google Forms
Google Forms is used on the WePainT page to provide a development survey. Google may use technologies required to display and submit the form, maintain security and recognise settings connected with a browser or Google session.
WPForms
WPForms is used on the Contact page. Essential technologies may be used to submit the form, validate information, prevent malicious submissions and display confirmation or error messages.
WordPress, hosting and security services
WordPress, the website host, security systems and the cookie-consent provider may use essential technologies to operate, protect and maintain the website and remember privacy choices.
The privacy and cookie practices of the relevant third-party provider also apply when you use its service.
ANALYTICS AND ADVERTISING
This website does not currently use general website analytics, targeted advertising, behavioural advertising, cross-site tracking or advertising pixels.
If analytics or advertising technologies are introduced in the future, this policy and the website’s Cookie Settings will be updated before they are activated. Consent will be requested where required.
YOUR COOKIE CHOICES
When you first visit the website, you can accept or reject optional technologies through the consent controls.
Rejecting optional technologies should be as straightforward as accepting them. You can review or change your choices later through the Cookie Settings link in the website footer or consent interface.
Strictly necessary technologies cannot be disabled through Cookie Settings because the website or a service you have requested may not function without them.
If you reject an optional technology, an embedded service such as Calendly or Google Forms may not load. Where possible, a direct link or alternative contact route will be provided.
CURRENT COOKIE DECLARATION
The precise cookies and similar technologies used by the website may change when WordPress, plugins, embedded services or hosting systems are updated.
The current cookie declaration available through Cookie Settings identifies, where applicable:
• the cookie or technology;
• its provider;
• its purpose and category;
• whether it is provided by this website or a third party;
• its duration or expiry.
The declaration displayed through Cookie Settings forms part of this Cookie Policy.
PERSONAL INFORMATION
Depending on the technology used, information may include:
• an IP address;
• browser or device information;
• technical identifiers;
• the time and date of access;
• consent choices;
• interactions with an embedded service.
Personal information collected through these technologies is handled as explained in the Privacy Notice. I do not sell personal information collected through this website.
MANAGING COOKIES THROUGH YOUR BROWSER
Most browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies through their settings. Blocking all cookies may prevent forms, bookings or other website functions from working properly.
Browser settings may not control every form of storage or access technology. The website’s Cookie Settings should therefore also be used to manage your choices.
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
This policy may be updated when website features, providers, plugins or legal requirements change. The date at the beginning of the policy shows when it was last revised.
