Analytics cookies
The site uses a first-party analytics system (no third-party tracker). With your consent, two technical identifiers are stored locally to recognise your session and your returning visits:

Without your consent, only data you actively submit through a form (e.g. the scope-builder or contact form) is collected. No analytics identifier is created on the wire.
Third-party cookies
