Site statistics
To count visits and see which pages help people, we record the page and a keyed hash of your IP address and browser that changes every day. It is not a cookie, it is not shared with anyone, we cannot link it to you, and we delete it after 13 months. We rely on the UK exemption for statistics that came into force on 5 February 2026. If your browser sends Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control, we do not record your visit at all.
