If you visit from the United Kingdom, Statistics cookies are switched on by default. UK law (the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, as amended by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025) allows analytics cookies without prior consent where they are used only to produce statistics that help us improve the website.

These cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website and the services you have asked for. They cannot be switched off. Examples include cookies that remember your login session in our publishing platform, cookies that record your consent choices, a cookie recording whether you are visiting from the UK (so we can apply the right consent rules; it holds no other location data), and cookies set by our hosting provider Vercel for load balancing and CSRF protection.
We use Google Analytics 4, deployed through Google Tag Manager, to understand how visitors use the site in aggregate. These cookies collect information such as the pages visited, time spent on the site, and the device and browser used, and report it back to us in anonymised form. We use this information only to understand and improve the website. Google processes it on our behalf and we have switched off Google’s advertising features and data sharing for this property. For UK visitors these cookies are on by default and can be switched off at any time; for everyone else they only run if you allow the “Statistics” category.
We use our own EMX website tracking to record the pages you visit and to recognise you as a returning visitor, for example after you have signed up through one of our forms. It only runs if you allow the “Visitor tracking” category.
We use Google Ads conversion and remarketing tags, deployed through Google Tag Manager, to measure the performance of our advertising and, where you have consented, to show you more relevant ads on other websites. We also use Google Publisher Tag (GPT) to serve the display advertising that appears on the website. These cookies only run if you allow the “Marketing” category.
Preference cookies remember non-essential choices you have made on the site, such as a preferred topic filter on the Opinion hub, so that they persist between visits.
