Cookie policy

What this site stores

This website stores very little, and everything it stores is first-party — set by this site, readable only by this site. There are no advertising cookies and no third-party trackers.

Essential — always on

These are needed for the site to work and cannot be switched off.

• sak_consent — remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics, so you are not asked on every page. Kept for 180 days.
• NEXT_LOCALE — remembers whether you are reading in English or Arabic.
• sak_session — only ever set for staff signing in to the admin area. Never set for ordinary visitors.

Analytics — only with your consent

Set only if you accept analytics. They are stored in your browser's session storage, not as cookies, and they are cleared when you close the tab.

• sak_anon — a random identifier so repeated page views in one visit are counted as one visit rather than many visitors. It is not linked to your name, email, phone or IP address.
• sak_attr — remembers which campaign or site you arrived from, so we can tell which adverts bring real enquiries.
• sak_started — marks that this visit has already been counted.

Changing your mind

Use the “Cookie preferences” link in the footer at any time. Declining analytics stops collection immediately and clears the identifiers above. Nothing on the site stops working.
