1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, and to provide information to the site's owners.
Similar technologies include local storage, session storage and pixel tags. We refer to all of these as "cookies" in this policy for simplicity.
2. The legal framework
Our use of cookies is governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and, where cookies process personal data, by the UK GDPR. Under PECR, cookies that are not strictly necessary for the service you have requested may only be set with your prior, freely given, specific and informed consent.
3. Our approach
We use the minimum number of cookies needed to operate the Site and to measure how it is used. We do not use cookies for advertising, retargeting or to share data with advertising networks.
We use Google Consent Mode v2. This means Google Analytics is configured to set no cookies and send no tracking data until you give consent for the Analytics category in our cookie banner.
The categories of cookie we may use are:
| Category | Purpose | Consent required? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Required for the Site to function and for security — e.g. remembering your cookie preferences | No (PECR exemption) |
| Analytics | Help us understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it | Yes |
| Functional | Remember choices you make to provide enhanced features | Yes |
| Marketing | Track visitors across sites to display relevant advertising — we do not use these | Yes |
4. The cookies we set
Strictly necessary
We do not currently set any strictly necessary cookies. Your cookie preference is recorded in your browser's local storage rather than as a cookie, so it is excluded from the table below.
Analytics — Google Analytics 4
We use Google Analytics 4 (provided by Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited) to understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. These cookies are only set after you give consent for the Analytics category. The cookies set by Google Analytics on this Site are:
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Distinguishes unique visitors | 2 years | |
_ga_1N6NWKC94Q | Persists session state for our GA4 property | 2 years |
Google Analytics may transfer data outside the UK. We rely on Google's compliance with the UK International Data Transfer Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, and the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Google's privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy.
You can opt out of Google Analytics across all websites by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Functional and Marketing
We do not currently set any functional or marketing cookies on this Site. If we add any in future, we will update this policy and ask for your consent before they are set.
5. Managing cookies

Note that disabling cookies may affect how parts of the Site function.
6. Withdrawing consent
Where we rely on your consent for non-essential cookies, you can withdraw that consent at any time by clearing cookies through your browser or by emailing us at hello@digitalpm.ltd. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
7. Your rights
Where cookies involve the processing of personal data, the rights set out in our Privacy Noticealso apply, including the right to access, rectify, erase or object to processing of your data, and the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent change.
