What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer or phone. They help the site remember your visit. This website keeps things simple: we do not use advertising cookies, and nothing is stored on your device without your permission.
How we use cookies
We use Microsoft Clarity, a free analytics tool, to understand how visitors use this website: which pages are read most, how far people scroll, and where anything is confusing. This helps us keep improving the site for patients. Clarity only sets cookies if you press Accept on the cookie banner. If you decline, the site works exactly the same and no cookies are stored.
The cookies we use
| Cookie | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
| _clck | Recognises your browser if you return to the site, so Clarity can tell new visitors from returning ones | 1 year |
| _clsk | Links the pages you view in one visit into a single session | 1 day |
| CLID | Records when Clarity first saw your browser | 1 year |
| MUID | A Microsoft identifier used by Clarity to recognise a browser | 13 months |
We also store your cookie choice itself (accepted or declined) in your browser so we do not ask you again on every visit. That record is strictly necessary, contains no personal information, and expires after 12 months.
Change your choice
You can change your mind at any time. Pressing the button below clears your saved choice, removes any Clarity cookies, and shows the cookie banner again.
