Cookie Policy
The cookies and browser storage this site uses, what each one does, and how to change your choice. No analytics cookie is set until you accept.
Last updated 10 October 2026
The short version
This site has one kind of optional cookie: Google Analytics. Its cookies are set only if you accept. There are no advertising cookies and no ad pixels.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, Google Analytics does not load at all until you accept. Elsewhere, before you choose, it runs with its cookies switched off and sends cookieless measurements that Google uses to estimate total visits. Rejecting analytics, or a Global Privacy Control signal from your browser, stops it completely.
Report links never run analytics. “Cookies” on this page also covers similar browser storage such as localStorage, because the same rules apply to both.
Strictly necessary
These do not need your consent, because the site cannot do what you asked without them. None of them is used for advertising or for tracking you across sites.
| Name | Where | Purpose | Type and lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|
| rc_consent | This site (first party) | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics, so we stop asking. It is never sent to us. | localStorage. We ask again after 12 months; it is deleted when you clear site data. |
| CF_Authorization and related cookies | Staff panel only (Cloudflare Access) | Signs RC staff in to the staff panel. Never set for visitors or clients. | Secure cookie, set by Cloudflare. For the length of a staff session. |
Analytics
Google Analytics: cookies only if you accept
We use Google Analytics 4 to count visits and see which pages are useful. The page address Google receives has every query parameter removed except utm_ campaign tags, and the referring address is cut down to the referring site’s name. Google receives your IP address and browser details with each request and uses them to estimate your approximate location; Google Analytics 4 does not store IP addresses. Advertising features, Google signals and ad personalisation are switched off.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Type and lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics (first-party cookie on the address of this site you use) | Holds a randomly generated identifier so Google Analytics can tell a returning visitor from a new one. | Cookie. 2 years. |
| _ga_39QF0WYJ8P | Google Analytics (first-party cookie on the address of this site you use) | Keeps track of your current visit so Google Analytics can count it as one session. | Cookie. 2 years. |
These cookies are limited to the address you are on. They are not sent to the staff panel or to report links.
We decide whether the stricter rule applies from the country Cloudflare reports for your connection; if it reports none, we treat you as being in the stricter group. If you withdraw consent, measurement stops straight away and we delete the Google Analytics cookies from your browser, without waiting for the page to reload. If your browser cannot save your choice, it lasts only for the current page, and we may ask again on the next one.
Global Privacy Control
If your browser or an extension sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal of Google Analytics and do not show you the cookie banner. You can still opt in with the control below if you want to.
What we don't use
- No advertising or retargeting cookies, and no ad-network pixels.
- No social media tracking widgets.
- No third-party fonts. Everything on these pages is served from this site, apart from Google Analytics.
- No session recording, heatmaps or keystroke capture.
- No selling or sharing of data for advertising.
Change your choice
Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it, and it takes effect straight away. Cookie settings in the footer of every page does the same thing as this button.
Browser controls
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Every major browser has controls under Privacy or Site settings, and most let you clear data for a single site. If you block storage for this site, we may ask about analytics on every visit, because there is nowhere to record your answer.
For everything else we do with personal data, see our Privacy Policy.
