Cookie policy
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), I only use cookies that are strictly necessary unless you choose to allow others.
Strictly necessary cookies
These make the site work securely and cannot be switched off. They do not track you.

| ts_cookies | Remembers your cookie choice so I don't ask again | 6 months |
Analytics cookies (optional)
If you click Accept, Google Analytics is loaded to tell me, anonymously, how many people visit and which pages are useful. It is never loaded on the booking confirmation or appointment pages, and it is not loaded at all if you click Reject.

Embedded maps
The map on the contact page comes from Google Maps and is only loaded when you choose to view it. Google may set its own cookies at that point.
