Cookie Policy
Last updated: 26 October 2026
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Similar technology, such as browser storage and tracking scripts, is covered by the same rules, so this page lists all of it. In short: Google Analytics and Google Ads don't load until you choose “Accept”, and the website works the same whichever you choose.
Always on: needed for the site to work
These don't need your consent because the site can't do what you ask without them.

When you pay a remap deposit you are taken to Stripe's secure payment page. Stripe sets its own cookies there to process the payment and prevent fraud.
Only if you choose Accept
These help us see which pages and adverts bring in calls and enquiries. Google Analytics and Google Ads don't load at all, and none of these are set, unless you accept.

The Google lifetimes above are Google's standard settings. Google may also set cookies on its own websites (such as google.com) to measure adverts. Google explains how it uses this information at policies.google.com/technologies/cookies.
Changing your mind
You can change your choice at any time. If you switch from Accept to Reject, we remove the Google cookies stored for our website and reload the page, so Google Analytics and Google Ads stop from that point.
You can also use “Cookie Settings” at the bottom of every page, or delete cookies in your browser settings.
Things we don't use
We don't embed videos, maps or social media feeds, and we don't use Facebook, TikTok or other social media tracking. Links to our Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and WhatsApp take you to those services, which use their own cookies.
Our website fonts are loaded from Google Fonts. That doesn't set cookies, but Google receives your IP address when the fonts load. See our Privacy Policy.
