In accordance with the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) and the applicable Maltese e-privacy framework, we inform you clearly and transparently about the cookies used on this website, their purpose and how you can manage them.
1. Data controller

2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (computer, mobile or tablet) when you visit them. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don't have to reconfigure them every time you browse its pages.
3. Types of cookies we use
This website uses three categories of cookies:
- Technical cookies (necessary): essential for the basic functioning of the website. They do not require consent.
- Functional cookies (security & booking): enable services such as reCAPTCHA (anti-spam) and Calendly (booking system). They require your consent.
- Analytics cookies (Google Analytics): allow us to understand how the website is used in order to improve it. They require your consent.
4. Technical cookies (necessary)
These are strictly necessary for the website to function correctly. They include session cookies, language preference cookies (Polylang) and the cookie that stores your consent preferences (laura_consent_v1). They are installed automatically and do not require your consent, as the website cannot function properly without them.
5. Functional cookies
These cookies enable third-party services needed for specific site features: Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect contact forms from spam, and Calendly for the appointment booking system. If you reject these cookies, forms and the booking system may not work correctly. They are only activated with your consent.
6. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics)
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4), a web analytics service provided by Google LLC (USA), to obtain statistical information about how users browse the website. This information helps us improve the structure, content and browsing experience.
Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information in aggregate form and produce web activity reports without personally identifying individual users.
We have configured Google Analytics with the following privacy measures:
- IP anonymisation enabled (IP addresses are truncated before being stored).
- Data is not shared with Google for advertising purposes.
- Advertising and remarketing features have not been enabled.
- Consent Mode v2 is configured to respect your cookie choices.
