cookie policy
the short version
we use only strictly-necessary cookies - the kind a site can't work without. no analytics, no advertising, no tracking. that's why you won't see a cookie-consent banner: under UK law, none is needed for essential cookies.
what a cookie is
a cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser. some are essential for the site to function; others (which we don't use) track you across pages or sites for analytics or advertising.
the cookies we set
| cookie | purpose |
|---|---|
| session cookie | keeps your visit working and, if you submit a form, protects it against cross-site request forgery (CSRF). strictly necessary. |
| energy region (session only) | if you enter a postcode for energy prices, we hold the resulting region for your visit only. your postcode is never stored. |
what we don't use
- no Google Analytics or any analytics cookie.
- no advertising or retargeting cookies (no Facebook Pixel, etc.).
- no third-party tracking or fingerprinting.
managing cookies
because we only use essential cookies, there's nothing to opt out of. you can still clear or block cookies in your browser settings, though blocking the session cookie may stop forms from working.
changes
if we ever add a non-essential cookie, we'll add a consent banner first and update this page. see our privacy policy for how we handle data more broadly.
