Cookie Policy
Cookies are small files a site stores on your device. Here is exactly what we use them for and how you stay in control.
The categories we use
Strictly necessary
These keep the site working — remembering your cookie choice, for instance, so the banner does not reappear on every page. They cannot be switched off, as the site would not function properly without them.
Analytics
These help us understand, in aggregate, which comparisons and pages people find useful, so we can prioritise what to update. They only run if you accept non-essential cookies.
Affiliate / referral
When you follow a link to an operator, a referral parameter may be passed so the operator can credit the visit to us. This is how the site is funded. These do not track your activity once you are on our own pages.
We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles, and we do not sell data gathered through cookies.
Managing your choices
When you first arrive you can choose "Essential only" or "Accept all". You can change your mind at any time by clearing this site's cookies in your browser, which will bring the banner back so you can choose again. Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies entirely through their settings.
