What cookies are
A cookie is a small file your browser stores when you visit a site. This site uses cookies to run, to see which pages help people, and to show ads on blog posts. Some cookies are necessary for the site to work. The rest only load after you accept them in the cookie banner.
How consent works
On your first visit you will see a cookie banner with three choices: Accept all, Reject non-essential, or Customise. If you reject, no analytics or advertising code loads at all. If you accept, only the categories you accepted load. Your choice is stored in a cookie called mmm_consent for 12 months. You can change it at any time on the cookie settings page. Returning visitors with a stored choice see no banner.
Necessary cookies
These keep the site working and are always on. You cannot turn them off from the banner, because the site cannot run without them.
wordpress_test_cookie: checks whether your browser accepts cookies. Lasts for the visit.
wordpress_logged_in_ and wordpress_sec_: keep you signed in. Last for the visit, or 14 days when you tick remember me.

Analytics cookies
These load only after you accept Analytics. They come from Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-99JSF743YJ) and record the pages you visit, how long you stay, and the device and browser you use, so we can see which pages help people. They do not record your name, your email address, or what you entered in a tool or in your Move Plan.

_ga_G-99JSF743YJ: keeps the session state for this site. Lasts 2 years.

For visitors in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, personalised ads are off until you accept Marketing. You can also control personalised ads in your Google ad settings.
