Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to function, recognise your device, and store information such as preferences and login status. Similar technologies (pixels, tags, local storage, and scripts) may also be used and are treated as cookies in this policy.

This website uses only strictly necessary cookies and similar technologies. We do not use analytics, advertising, retargeting or social-media tracking cookies, and we do not load tag managers or advertising pixels. Because the technologies below are needed to deliver and protect the service, we do not ask for consent and do not show a cookie banner.

• Editor sign-in session: our content management system sets a session cookie when an authorised editor signs in to update the site. It is not set for ordinary visitors.
• Contact form spam protection: the form on our contact page and homepage uses Cloudflare Turnstile to check that a submission comes from a person. It loads from Cloudflare when those pages open, may store a small amount of data in your browser to run the check, and receives your IP address and browser details. Cloudflare acts as our service provider; see Cloudflare’s privacy policy.

We do not allow analytics providers, advertising networks or social media platforms to place cookies via our site. The only third-party service that runs in your browser is Cloudflare Turnstile, described above. If you follow a link from our site to another website, that site’s own cookies and policies apply.

We use these technologies to:

1. Operate and secure our website.
2. Protect our contact form from spam and abuse.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings (see your browser’s help section for instructions). Please note that blocking the contact form’s spam check may stop the form from working; you can always email us at hello@longbowworks.co.uk instead.

If we add analytics or any other non-essential technology in future, we will update this policy first and ask for your consent where the law requires it.

• The contact form’s spam check processes your IP address and browser and device signals so that it can tell people from automated traffic.
• The editor session cookie holds a sign-in token. It is only ever set for people who sign in to edit the site.

Personal data you send through the contact form itself is covered by our Privacy Policy.

The editor session cookie lasts for the length of a sign-in session. Any data the contact form’s spam check stores in your browser is controlled by Cloudflare and is kept for as long as Cloudflare’s Turnstile service requires.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date reflects the latest revision. Any significant changes will be communicated on our website.
