Cookie Policy
Last updated: 28 May 2026
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that the websites you visit save on your device to remember information (preferences, sessions, statistics). There are "technical" cookies (essential to operation) and "non-technical" cookies (analytics, marketing) that require your consent.
2. How to manage your preferences
On your first visit to the website you are shown a cookie banner with 3 options:
- Accept all: enables all cookies including analytics and marketing.
- Essential only: only technical cookies, no analytics or marketing.
- Customise: choose by category.
Your choice is saved in your browser (localStorage key vb_consent_v1) and
respected on subsequent visits. You can change it at any time by clicking the
"Manage cookies" link in the footer, or by clearing the site's data from your browser.
