Cookie policy
We use a small number of cookies. This page explains what they do and how to control them.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by a website. We use cookies for two purposes: keeping the site working (essential), and understanding how visitors use it so we can improve it (analytics, optional).

Your choices
On your first visit you will see a Google-certified consent message (IAB Transparency & Consent Framework) asking whether Google and its partners may use cookies for personalised advertising. Choosing "Do not consent" or "Manage options" still lets you use every page. You can change your choice at any time here:
Our visitor statistics use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which sets no cookies and uses no identifiers, so there is nothing to opt out of there.
Third parties
Advertising cookies are set by Google LLC (AdSense) and, with your consent, by its certified ad partners; how Google uses the data is described at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites, and you can opt out of personalised ads at Google Ads Settings. We do not use social-media trackers, and advertising never changes what our calculators or supplier data pages show. Full details in our privacy policy.
