Cookies

Short version: this site sets four cookies. Three keep it working and one tells us which pages are slow. We do not advertise to you, and we do not sell anything about you to anybody.

What we actually set

This list comes from a real visit to this site rather than a template, so it is what your browser genuinely receives.

Strictly necessary

These cannot be switched off — without them you could not sign in, and we could not remember that you had answered this question.

Cookie What it does Lasts
wixSession Identifies your browser session so the site can keep you signed in to your client portal and keep a form you are part-way through. Session
client-session-bind Ties the session above to your browser, so a session cannot be picked up and reused somewhere else. Session
consent-policy Remembers the choice you make in this banner. Without it we would have to ask you on every page. 12 months

Performance

Switched off unless you allow it. Decline and it is not set at all.

Cookie What it does Lasts
bSession Measures how quickly pages load and where they fail, so we can fix the slow ones. Set by Wix, our hosting platform. 30 minutes

Changing your mind

Use the button above, or the Cookie settings link in the footer of any page. Turning something off stops it being set from that point — the page reloads so you are not left with something still running that you have just declined.

You can also clear cookies in your own browser settings. If you clear the consent-policy cookie we will ask you again on your next visit.

Asking us about your data

If you want to know what we hold, or want it deleted, email hello@elliothawker.com and we will come back to you.
