Privacy
Cookie Policy
Which cookies we use, what they're for and how to change your mind. Analytics cookies stay off unless you accept them.
What cookies are
Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. Sites can also save information in your browser's local storage, which works in a similar way. This page covers both, and calls them all cookies.
We sort them into two groups: essential cookies, which the site needs and which are always on, and analytics cookies, which we only use if you say yes.
Essential cookies
These are stored in your browser's local storage, never sent to us or anyone else, and stay until you clear your browser data.
| Name | What it's for | How long |
|---|---|---|
theme | Remembers whether you picked the light or dark theme. | Until you clear it |
stcm. | Remembers that you've answered the cookie banner, so we don't ask again on every page. | Until you clear it |
stcm. | Records that essential cookies are on (they always are). | Until you clear it |
stcm. | Remembers whether you accepted analytics cookies. | Until you clear it |
Analytics cookies
These help us see how people use the site (which pages they visit, where they click and how far they scroll), so we can make it better. They're only set if you accept analytics cookies.
| Name | Provider and purpose | How long |
|---|---|---|
_ga | Google Analytics: tells visitors apart. | 2 years |
_ga_KN57WDKWC7 | Google Analytics: keeps track of your visit. | 2 years |
_clck | Microsoft Clarity: tells visitors apart. | 1 year |
_clsk | Microsoft Clarity: joins the pages you visit into one session. | 1 day |
If you don't accept, these cookies aren't set and Clarity doesn't load. Google Analytics may still receive basic, cookieless signals (such as a page view) that can't be linked to you.
For more detail, see how Google uses cookies (opens in a new tab) and the Microsoft privacy statement (opens in a new tab).
Other websites
Our shop links to Amazon. We don't set any cookies when you click those links, but Amazon sets its own once you're on its site, including one that tells Amazon you came from us. Amazon's cookie notice explains them.
Changing your mind
You can change your choice at any time with the "Change cookie settings" button at the top of this page. Every page links here from the Cookies link in its footer. If you withdraw consent, the page reloads without the analytics scripts.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser's settings. The Information Commissioner's Office (opens in a new tab) explains how.
