What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files that a website saves in your browser. Websites can also save information in your browser's "local storage" or "session storage". The law treats these technologies in the same way as cookies, so this policy covers all of them.
What we store on your device
Everything listed below is strictly necessary, or is only used to handle an enquiry you choose to send us. None of it is used for advertising or shared with advertisers.
| Name | Type | Set by | Purpose | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| cookies-accepted | Local storage | Police Station Agent | Remembers that you have seen and closed the cookie notice, so it is not shown on every page. | Until you clear your browser's site data |
| psa_enquiry_attr_v1 | Session storage | Police Station Agent | Records how you arrived on the site during this visit (landing page, referring site and any campaign tags in the link). It is only sent to us if you submit the contact form, so we can see how you found us. | Deleted when you close the browser tab |
| admin-token | Cookie (HTTP-only) | Police Station Agent | Keeps site administrators signed in to the admin area. It is not set for ordinary visitors. | 7 days |
| Security check cookie | Cookie | Vercel (our hosting provider) | May be set only if Vercel's security systems need to check that your browser is not an automated bot. | Short-lived |
Analytics: Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights
Our website is hosted by Vercel. We use Vercel Web Analytics to count page views and see which pages are popular, and Vercel Speed Insights to measure how quickly pages load. The scripts are served from our own domain.
- They do not set cookies and do not store anything on your device.
- They record the page visited, the referring website, your browser, operating system and device type, and an approximate location (country or region) worked out from your connection.
- Vercel does not use this to identify you or to follow you across other websites. Visits are grouped using a short-lived value that Vercel discards after 24 hours, and we only see aggregated statistics.
More information: Vercel Web Analytics privacy and compliance.
Your choices
Because we only use strictly necessary storage and cookieless analytics, there are no optional cookies to switch on or off. If we ever want to use optional cookies (for example, other analytics tools), we will update this policy and ask for your consent before setting them.
If you have any questions about cookies or analytics on this website, please contact us using the details below.
Changes to this policy
We will update this policy if the cookies or similar technologies we use change, and we will change the "last updated" date above.
