FDS uses Vercel Web Analytics to measure page visits without analytics cookies. We do not load advertising trackers. Optional browser storage is off until you choose to use it.
Last updated: 19 October 2026
Vercel Web Analytics provides aggregate visitor and page-view statistics. Our integration removes query strings and URL fragments from page URLs before sending them. We do not send assessment answers or contact form fields as analytics events.
Theme and currency work without persistent storage. If you enable ‘Remember my theme and currency’ below, this device stores your selected light, dark or system theme and GBP, EUR or USD currency for up to 180 days from enabling. Turning the choice off deletes saved preferences and stops future saving. Without a saved theme, the site follows your device's colour setting.
The assessment keeps answers in memory while you use the form. Only selecting ‘Save my progress on this device’ stores a draft across visits. It includes your contact details and assessment answers, but does not remember your permission to be contacted. The draft expires seven days after saving is enabled; editing or reopening it does not extend that deadline.
The stored draft is removed after successful submission, when you turn saving off, or when you use a deletion control. Expired drafts are not restored and are removed when the site next checks them. A website cannot erase browser storage while it is closed. Older drafts saved before optional saving was introduced are discarded.
Use the controls below or the Storage settings link in the footer. Deleting a draft does not erase an enquiry already submitted to FDS. You can also remove all FDS site data through your browser settings. If browser storage is blocked, the form and display controls remain usable without saving.
The site uses its own hosting and security services to deliver pages and process requests. Quick View state uses page URLs and browser history. These are not advertising profiles. Hosting services may process IP addresses and technical request logs, as described in the privacy policy.
If FDS introduces advertising, tracking or other storage that requires consent, it must remain blocked until consent is given. We will update this notice and provide suitable accept, reject and preference controls before enabling it.
